I don't remember how we establish order, it may be first come, first served, one claim per 24 hours.

If you have 12 men, you can't claim anyone without releasing someone else.

Also, people might be operating under a false assumption: injured and suspended players still count for a roster spot, just like in the real league. So unless your guy is overseas, don't try claiming your 13th, injured guy is on "IR."

I never read any rules regarding size of rosters

I was under the assumption that NBA rules applied

Just remembered,



The Pigs would like to add Wally World.



Or at least his Bird rights to use as trade bait.

Those are NBA rules. There is no IR in the NBA anymore.

But NBA rules are roster sizes of 15, not 12

So I have 13 players, 1 of which is on IR and I own the rights to a foreign player

That's within NBA rules, right

I could have sworn that we had a max roster of 12 for this thing, but I can't find it in any of the threads.

But there's definitely no IR anymore. A guy that's out for the season with an injury still counts against the NBA roster max of 15, unless he's released.

So I assume for this exercise, a 13th guy who's injured has to be cut, or someone else has to for there to be room for him.

But again, I never saw anything regarding a 12 person roster size anywhere, NBA rules are 15

Yeah. The roster size seemed implicit to me. 2 keepers, 10 rounds, roster of 12.

[Lucky17]

Is there a deadline for me to make my pick?

I am hoping to make one last deal, and may need the pick to replace a traded player.

If someone could send me a PM with the deadline, I'll comply.

I PM'ed Roy the same question around round 6 or 7.  The response he provided was that as long as you're not over 15, you're ok. 

[Truck Lewis]

anyone not use their last pick and want to sell it for tps?

[fairweatherfan]

With their final pick, New Orleans takes Mario West.

[Who]

Is there a deadline for the rosters to be settled/finished/completed?

A trade deadline? Draft or free agency deadlines?
