I also sent ywk an email right after I made the last post. Meanwhile, I am in another league that needs a couple more managers. The core group of guys has been around in various leagues since the sandbox.com days. If anyone is interested, let me know.

@ Wolfer - I'm interested in hearing about the other league you're in that needs managers. I can't send emails through the links on this site so if you could contact me and let me know more about the league, I'd appreciate it.

I will see what happens today. In terms of the clock, if we can get two rounds per day in, we should be in good shape.

I almost took Kobe right before you but since I already took Westbrook I figured it might now be the best idea to have 2 of my top 5 picks on the bench to start the season. I'm sure you'll love having him once he gets back on the court.

I almost took Favors or Bledsoe with 4.11, those are nice picks. I got scared off of Favors a little because I read an interview where he sounds like the Rainman of defense, but doesn't care too much about his offensive game:

Favors admitted that his focus has always been on playing defense and rebounding, and that the offensive part of his game has never been his primary concern.

"I feel I'm doing good," he said prior to Friday morning's practice at Zions Bank Basketball Center. "That's what I am — I'm a rebounder and a defensive player first — and I just let the offense come to me. But overall I think I'm doing good."

For Favors to improve his scoring numbers, he said it's essential for him to "just get into the flow of the game early, get into a rhythm, get myself going early in games. I'm just working on little touch shots around the basket, baseline jumpers, just things like that just to get myself going."

So is he enjoying his new-found role as one of the cornerstones of this young and rebuilding Jazz team?

"Of course, of course, I'm loving it right now," he said. "I know it's a lot of pressure, but I'm not opposed to it. I'm just going out there and playing my game."

Right now, he says his responsibility is to "just anchor the defense because I see everything because I'm in the paint most of the time, so just really anchor the defense, rebound, and just help guys out.

"I've always been good at defense; I like playing defense, and it's just something I've always been good at, and that's something the coaches want me to do now."

My strategy seems to be taking guys I've never had and are not big names. I need to come up with a team name for my no-name squad of players on losing teams in bad tv markets.

Meatwads has timed out on the turn, but is getting a second 4 hours. If the rule is that managers on the term only get 1 4-hour period, he needs to be skipped manually.

Sorry for taking so long guys. My internet wouldn't work and I've been trying to fix it since this morning. I'll set up the rest of my draft so it auto-picks for me, in case this happens again.

Looks like the league has been created in ESPN with 5 bench slots...shouldn't this be changed to 4?

It was set up with 5 as it was set before the RIHC rule change to eliminate the IS designations. I will fix when I enter rosters.

Restock drafted Kemba Walker but he's showing as a FA in ESPN--looks like you gave him Von Wafer in error.

Wow-- this draft was a disaster so far for me- going to take some free agent/waiver wire magic to even come close to the top half-- Rose-Ilyasova-D. Green-Butler-- Stoudemire???????-- wish I could blame drunk drafting for this one!!
