0 Subject: Jeepers Keepers league needs a new owner

Posted by: Tree, not at home
- [18342816] Tue, Oct 12, 2010, 14:01

The Jeepers Keepers hoops league, now heading into its 8th season on Yahoo, is looking for a new owner.

we lost two coming into this season, and have replaced one. which owner gets which team will be decided via coin flip, but both have fairly solidly keepers and could be contenders with a good draft.

chime in over here, or over there, or email me if interested. we're looking to get moving on this pretty quick, and the live draft is the night before the season starts.

Also it looks like the Draft Order has to be finalized on Yahoo, right now it's saying it will pick it 30 minutes before the draft.

FYI - WG, Knicksfan and I all have another draft at 8 PM on Monday. Should be ok if we stick with 10 PM though.

Also, its a head to head style and very active if anyone has interest in trying that one out too. 20 bucks. We'd need 2 more to go from 10 to 12 teams.

Keepers:

Dwight Howard
Rajon Rondo
Manu Ginobili
Andrew Bogut
Derrick Rose

This leaves trade bait some pretty solid players:

Luis Scola
Nene Hilario
Kris Humphries
Anderson Varejao

Its the Double-Double crew. Draft pick upgrade is all I'm looking for.

i think you can pick your own keepers on the Yahoo site. in fact, i'm pretty sure you have to do that by the deadline.

sheesh, i have totally not been paying attention. that being said, the girlfriend is out of the hospital.

i'm keeping an eye on this storm as well. it has potential to completely screw anyone on the east coast. because of that, i'm gonna go ahead and move the draft to Sunday night.

(ok, i just did so, and the earliest time available sunday night is 9:30 central. if that's TOO late for east coasters, tell me)

REMEMBER, INPUT YOUR OWN KEEPERS. YES, YOU CAN DO THAT. DEADLINE IS TOMORROW.

I input 4 of my keepers, but my 5th one is coming via trade. How does that get handled? Also, how are draft pick trades handled in a live draft?

Tree, happy to hear she is doing better!

The team who currently has that player should mark them as a keeper. The commish can then rearrange which team they are on after the keepers process and everyone else is kicked to free agency.

Just talked to Josh... he said, instead... just mark only your keepers as keepers... not anyone you traded away. Josh will address that separately.

Yes, commish has to finalize and approve keepers post keeper deadline so at that point you could add checkmarks to the traded players.

So WG is getting Greg Monroe. Either Tree can make him his "6th keeper" (and WG checks off 4 names)... or Tree can just check his normal 5. Then when Commish is finalizing keepers he can add a check mark next to Monroe's name.

Having a check mark next to your name will carry that player over to the draft setup and not spit them into the free agent draft pool. Now that pool of keepers can be rearranged/traded/reassigned when inputting draft pick trades etc.

i think we had 3 keepers change hands:
Klay Thompson

Greg Monroe

even though everyone has selected their keepers, i still have to manually input them??? that doesn't seem to make any sense...

Slight conflict.

last year, Wiggs (now WG) traded his 12th rounder to GO as part of this trade:

Wiggs/12th/Batum for GO/2nd/W.Chandler

this off season, we had this deal:

Perm Dude trades pick 1.1 to WG for pick 12.2 and D. Rose.

obviously, the same team can't trade the same pick twice. i've made the second trade be for pick 11.2 instead of 12.2.

if WG has a problem with this, we'll nullify the deal, but i think he'll be fine with it.

i'll have the traded picks and keepers in a minute. lemme know everything looks kosher.

Man, my squad next season is going to kick ass. I'm somehow going to have to pick 5 keepers from:

Dwight Howard
Rajon Rondo
Derrick Rose
Anderson Verejao
Ersan Ilyasova
Andrew Bogut
Manu Ginobili
Arron Afflalo
JR Smith

Plus a host of bubble guys: Evan Turner, Gerald Henderson, Vince Carter...

Too bad I've got to suffer through another half a year. My goal is to *not* get the top pick in the draft next year.

But if anyone wants to stash one of these guys for next season, I'd be happy to look for a draft pick upgrade.

I'm looking to move Bynum for a draft pick if anyone has interest. I can keep him so I don't need to accept a low ball offer but if someone has a draft pick they'd like to send my way I'd listen.

Thought I put myself in a pretty good position after my trades, but half the guys I got back are now either hurt (Amare, Kirilenko) or lost their starting role (Collison).

Congrats to Tosh... DaBomb almost won after all that wheeling and dealing. Looks like a few more steals would have made the difference. Kobe's injury probably made a difference there.

Nice job Tosh. Had been tied for 1st for a few days these past couple weeks but you gained that point on me the last day. We can add OJ Mayo to the list in 191, in that he turned into a bum shortly after I traded for him and I didn't play him at all down the stretch (along with Collison).

I haven't finished out of the top 3 in about 7 seasons so this was definitely a new experience for me. But I made what I thought were some good long term keeper investments in exchange for current success. Once I did the deal for Kevin Love that was the way my ship had to sail. But I think I'm set up for another good run.

Also moved the absolutely on fire Carmelo for a future of Anthony Davis who I thought it was important to pair and offset what K-Love does.

nice job Tosh!

this was a tough season for me. three straight years at the top of the pack (falling to second place on the final day of the season last year), to not even remotely contending this season was a bitter pill to swallow.

Injuries devastated my team. Danny Granger's 27 total points has got to be a record for lowest point total in a season by a keeper who actually played during the season.

Of my 5 keepers, only 2 played more than 50 games. I got 5 out of Granger, 50 out of Nash, and 49 out of P. Gasol.

needless to say, there will definitely be some rebuilding for my squad this off season.

Very close finish. Nice job at the top, and Tosh for pulling it out.

I've got an amazing keeper set, and will be elbowing all you guys out of the way next year.

Thanks guys. That was a very close final night. Going into the few night games, I trailed 58-57, but had four players hopefully going, and trailed Dilligad (w/ 1 player) by about 25 points. Once I tied it up at 58, I figured it was over. But then KnickFan passed DaBomb in steals ... so I ended up winning 58-57.

I'm still not sure what happened.
** I only had one all-star (Luol Deng). Yahoo rank #65.
** Curry, Conley, Ibaka, and Horford were all good keepers, but Iguodala was not.
** My round 1 (Lin) was useful but not great. Yahoo rank #55.
** Round 2 pick (Bargnani) was useless.
** Round 6-7-8-9-11-12 were all waived by early-December.
** I remember thinking early in the draft that this team was mid-tier again, and that was when I picked Beal & Rivers in rounds 5-6. Planning for the future.

So thanks on taking it easy on me this year. And thanks to KnicksFan for getting those extra 3 steals late last night! I only see four keepers on my roster, so I might be looking come Fall.

Have a great off-season!

Wow. I was not able to play close attention last night. Good thing.

It was a fun/agonizing last couple of weeks, as I was up on games played and needed to decide what categories to chase and what players to use while navigating injuries and player rest. I was making lineup changes right up until the start of games yesterday. Spent 10 minutes deciding between Kirilenko or Tobias Harris (made the right choice, but it didn't matter). Pretty wild how a couple steals here or missed foul shots there decide entire seasons, but that's no different than the real thing.

Tosh - i lost last season, in part, for some similar reasons - people making unexpected leaps on the season's final day.

i am definitely in rebuilding mode. But having Kevin Durant is a good place to start.

Losing Javale McGee, Bledsoe, Felton, Nash my top picks for the year was awesome... Ben McLemore was a total bust and wasted pick... and losing Westbrook, Kawhi and Anthony Davis for extended periods was the icing on the cake. So all in all 3rd was pretty solid for a team of random free agents surrounding Kevin Love.

congrats on the win!

on my part, my interest in fantasy basketball has waned. i barely played the second half of the season, and made virtually no moves the entire season.

i'm not sure if my interest in basketball has waned, or life got busy this season (more or less living with the girlfriend, new job started in november that keeps me off line most of the day).

either way, it's always a big deal to win a league, so congrats Bomb!
