Draft thread for Lucky17's Yahoo! H2H League

[Lucky17]

Guys,

Here's the draft thread for the head-to-head league we're doing. People should either post their selection when their turn comes up, or send their ranked preferences to me via PM, and I will post for you.

I'll update this with selections and/or trades as they take place.

I'd like to start the draft as soon as possible. Please try to stay on top of things to help keep things moving.

Note: only players who have declared for this past year's draft are eligible. Below, I've listed the results of the 2008 NBA Draft, in order of selection. This should not be viewed as the comprehensive list, but it does give you an idea of the players who were selected and where. I imagine most of these players, at least the first rounders who aren't international projects, have a chance to make final NBA rosters.

GMs must submit their selection by the time listed, or I will assign them the highest available player, based on the actual results of the 2008 NBA Draft (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_NBA_Draft).

[jgod213]

will there be an "available players" list?

[Roy Hobbs]

Per Lucky17's request, I'm locking this now.  It will be opened at a later date.

However, to start things off, The Naturals select Michael Beasley.

[Lucky17]

OK, this thread is now open for business. I've posted the first 4 picks; RIPRED is up next.

I'll be back later to make updates.

[Kwhit10]

Is there still a hold up? Does Ripred know he can pick?

[Lucky17]

He PMed me, asking me who was on his roster.

Once again, all team rosters have been posted, on page one of this thread:

http://www.celticsblog.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=64&topic=22736.0

If things don't pick up soon, I'm going to start making selections for people, based on how the real draft went.
