  • I left Indiana. Because it was horrible.
Some of you may prefer to forget, but yours truly was one of the original twenty managers to participate in the Celticsblog ur-draft that begat this points league in 2007. Well, nobody tell Champind, but I'm back. To be honest - though I very much appreciated the invite - I wasn't inclined to accept. I'm in two leagues already, points has always been my least favorite fantasy format, and it isn't that attractive an offer to take on a stacked roster built on hard feelings.

Ultimately, I agreed because I'd like to get the league that served as my introduction to fantasy basketball, and many of my favorite Celticsblog personalities, back on track. Also, I don't get enough Indeed Proceed face time these days. Fair warning, I'm no longer the fantasy ringer I once was - I'm a lot less available, for one. The good news is that my problem personalty has grown on people to the point that I'm now brought in as a veteran leader/stabilizing influence.

To kick things off, I'd like to put my own stamp on the team and deal every player currently on the roster by opening day.

Kevin Durant
Dante Exum
Gordon Hayward
Jrue Holiday
Damian Lillard
Brook Lopez
Kris Middleton
Nerlens Noel
Zaza Pachulia
Jabari Parker
Otto Porter
Julius Randle
Rajon Rondo
DeAngelo Russell
Karl Anthony Towns
Andrew Wiggins

I'm not smart enough to handle 5-6 player deals and I'm constitutionally opposed to 2 for 1s. Formal trade offers via Yahoo strongly preferred.

God bless.
THE Walker Wiggle

Give me Karl Anthony Towns and I'll send back Kemba Walker and a promise not to make my team name about your mother.*

*for the next three weeks
CB Draft Bucks: Chris Paul, Dwight Howard, Tobias Harris, Zach LaVine, Aaron Afflalo, Jeff Green, Donatas Motiejunas, Jarrett Jack, Frank Kaminsky, Lance Stephenson, JaVale McGee, Shane Larkin, Nick Young

DKC Bucks. Also terrible.

Pretty sure Walker Wiggle can't trade any of the Leprechauns for two months, because every single one of those guys was a Top 50 player.  Lol

Really, though you guys will want to double-check that.  Only 70 players in the entire league averaged over 30fp last season and I'm pretty sure 12 of mine cleared that mark.  If you're still adhering to that "no top 50 players traded in a rookie's first two months", that limits Wiggle to trading Porter, Pachulia, Russell and Exum:



Hope that helps.

You are not in this league any more.

Posting and then quoting yourself is the definition of trolling. If you need me to quote you the relevant parts of the rules about posting I will.

If you want to start a league go for it. You can talk all you want in that thread.

Please stop posting in this league's thread.

The Walker Wiggle isn't a rookie. He's grandfathered. The man was doing fantasy basketball when some of you were playing Dungeons and Dragons hoping a girl would show up just so the room wouldn't smell so bad.

Stop now. Don't troll the league you were kicked out of for bad behavior. Keep interfering with the league and it is just CBlog harassment. Do not reply a snarky "I was kicked out for being too good" troll. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.
