Boxers pick Ron Artest for the suns until completion of the trade

Kudos for everyone for being patient & civil, but yeah last year we were told/encouraged that if you work out a deal that late in the game, to pick a guy for the other team then send it in.

that way other teams don't steal the guy and/or have to wait (since some are jumping on for that short window at work).

Come on man, you are totally being THAT GUY right now. Seriously just stop it. No one here is holding a stopwatch. Who cares?

I tend to agree with this.  If somebody is going to wait until the last minute, they at least need to pick for the other GM by their draft time.  Or, that's what I would suggest, anyway.  It's the fairest thing.

Once again, I encourage use of the chat room to get deals done.

Also, please clear up your PM boxes.  They have a limited capacity.


Ya, I'm sorry to be using up all the board with constant "Pacers are interested in..." but my work blocks me from using the chat or celticsblog home page.

Sorry startorien,  that wasn't directed at you.  I was just throwing out a reminder to people.

No, I know it wasn't. Just wanted to be clear I wasn't blatantly ignoring your request.

  • You ain't the boss of the freakin' bedclothes.
The Kings select hedo turkoglou

That is an interesting pick. He's def a piece in a puzzle, not a cornerstone, but depending on what you put aroudn him, he could be the Turkey Glue that holds it all together.

That's right. I managed to make that into a joke about his name. TP's please.

Thank you.  Its not that im trying to be a jerk, I have to be at a meeting at 11:30 on the other side of my office and would like to get there a couple of minutes early.  So when members announce that they are going to wait untill their time is up and the make a trade after their time has expired its tough when I have to be somewhere

I definitely like the guy.  He didn't make "the jump" like I expected him to last season, but he still has time.
