I am really surprised at the lack of activity on the FA thread. Shocked, really.
I think there are only two teams left with open roster spots.

I will say this: Next year I'm gonna make sure I only have 11 guys walking into the FA period, and make a few 2:1 trades to move up into better rounds. The 9th round, the 5th to 6th, and the 3rd round seem like great places to target...and there are plenty of NBA caliber 10th and 11th men left. Heck, since 4PM yesterday I've acquired Jonas Jerebko, Patty Mills, and Josh Childress. Love it.

One idea would be to have 15 man rosters, but only 13 rounds of drafting.  With a contracted league, there's depth to add FAs.
Yeah, I'd love to have a 15 man roster.

Just for the purpose of hoarding good talent away from FA?  That's the only reason why I'd be down for it.  I think a 15 man roster is pretty unnecessary.  I mean, if most 11th and 12th men don't even normally make it into a rotation, are men 13-15 going to matter at all?  There will be no minutes for them.

I think a 15 man roster allows GMs to acquire more talent and have more flexibility (i.e., a GM can store a young prospect with potential like Marshon Brooks, while also having Josh Childress).  Also, it's akin to real NBA rosters, that have 15 players.

By keeping the draft confined to 13 rounds, though, you don't force people to carry 15 players if they don't want to (which again is like the real NBA).

I could see these two squads matching up alright on a Monta trade.

Bullet's GM is really bored.  He doesn't want to work on AP lesson plans for next year.  One kid is asleep and the other two are out with their mother.



Please send trade offers, even if they are only good for some laughs.
