2. Cut-down day is probably going to be Oct. 17. Once you post your cut-down roster you're not eligible to trade "cut" players.

Just wanted to let people see i loosened up on this.... if you submit a cut-down roster you just can't trade or uncut previously "cut" players.

Hmmm.... well then I will put the remaining players back on the market:

PG Kemba Walker
PG Kendall Marshall
SG Tim Hardaway, Jr.
SG Victor Oladipo
SF Jeremy Lamb
SF Paul George
PF Tobias Harris
PF Tristan Thompson
C  Cody Zeller
C  Derrick Favors
U  Donatas Motiejunas
B  Noah Vonleh
B  James Young
B  Jusuf Nurkic
B  Rodney Hood

Along with the very high UF 2015 #1 pick.

The newest Rusted Rim continues to impress:

Asked who's impressed him in camp, Kobe mentioned rookie Jordan Clarkson, saying how surprised he is that Clarkson fell to LAL in the draft. "I think that was a steal of a pick...great pace, great feel for the game...Can shoot the deep ball"

Open to offers on anyone, as long as it helps my team - roster:

Guards
Brandon Knight
Jameer Nelson
Shabazz Napier
Mo Williams
Jordan Clarkson
Klay Thompson
JR Smith
Kent Bazemore

Forwards
Draymond Green
Livio-Jean Charles
Carmelo Anthony
Rudy Gay
Chandler Parsons
Josh Smith

Centers
Greg Monroe
Kelly Olynyk
Tyler Zeller

I'm looking to possibly make a last move --- either to thin out my glut of SF or upgrade at PF.

Before the H2H league draft, I was convinced that in 5 years James Young would be one of the 10 best players in the entire draft. During my researching, most article that I read had him playing in the DLeague most of this season. To raw. No D. Needs time to mature. However, my gut told me that he would not only stay with the big club most/all of the year, but that he would also make an impact this season.

The more I thought about how he would get minutes though, the more confused I became. The Cs have soooooo many middle of the road SG/SFs. By draft-day, I was waffling on him a little bit. I decided to go with my gut on him and the rest of the draft.

Once the draft kicked off, things started to take shape and I estimated that I had about a 50/50 shot at him with the #16 pick. I knew MMSB was considering him at #13 b/c he needed guards and already selected Marcus, but he went LaVine (who I also really like).

The Juggs were on the clock. I was pretty confident that Webkins would select Bruno at #15, but the Juggs were the wildcard. He already messed up my #7 pick (and a contingency trade) by picking Elfid Payton at #6. The whole Utah Flash front office had a collective exhale when he went with Payne(who I can't get a handle on) at #14.

The Utah Flash were relieved & super excited to select Young at #1. The pick felt GOOD.

IMO, the only reason that he was available at #16 was b/c he missed summer league. Had he played, I highly doubt he would have slipped past the Gambler at #10/#11. Now that camp is in full swing, the cat is out of the bag on Young. My gut, and C fans all over the place, are feeling that Young will make a better than expected impact this season.

Where will the minutes come from? I am not sure, but talent rises and Young may be the most talented guy on the Cs roster.

P.S. " I was convinced that in 5 years James Young would be one of the 10 5 best players in the entire draft."

P.P.S. 19 y/o Jusuf Nurkic, aka "The Bosnian Bear" also didn't play in the NBA Summer League. He's much more raw and project than Young, not ready for primetime. However he would have went a bit higher than #18, had more people got to see him play this summer. Plus, his father is a 7 foot tall, 400 pound cop.

We're glad Greivis Vasquez got over the hurt of being cut by the GCs during the 2011 lockout (of course he went on to become the starting PG of NOH a few weeks later when CP3 was traded.)

It can still cause confusion for consumers and could be reasonably sought out as a substitute. You have to come up with your own trash talk. We suggest you find some 5 second bit of Snoop saying "With my mind on my money and my money on my mind"
