So for those of you who won't be able to sleep tonight because you missed your pick by a couple minutes....and nobody is more angry at themselves than I am as I missed out on a trade this way....I should freaking know better....

I offer.....ambient sounds to help you sleep. But not just any ambient sounds. Somebody made Hogwarts sounds and Jedi Temple sounds and sounds of the Shire and whatnot.

I tried to listen to the Hogwarts express last night, but I think I need to make it louder than I made it....

Yes. Your pick was screwed up but you have this the rest of your life.....although I have no idea how the battle of Pelanor Fields is supposed to help you sleep. Sounds horrific to me.

Was Ulis selected twice?

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.

also...rather than make my life a living hell for the next 10 days could you maybe wait till after opening day to trade your entire roster?

Note: eja is bad with sarcasm in both directions
