    yea but thats you getting 9 players..the limit is 8

    it was clear in the beginning we could trade 2 for 1..it never said that that meant we would lose a roster spot....vbg said right before free agency started that it has to be 1 for 1...but i don't think thts fair, i traded my 6th pick...so i gave up a quality player..doesn't mean i have to give up a roster spot??

    i think thats pretty fair guys....if you guys agree then i'll pick up carlos delfino...

    Agreed. We were all given 8 picks. It's not fair for Arjun to have 9.

    like i said before....i traded the 6th pick for nothing..doesnt mean i traded my roster spot

    NBA teams can have 12 players max...just like in this league you can have 8 max...if an nba team does a 2 for 1 and has 11 players that doesn't mean they have 11 players for the rest of the season, they just have to pick up some crappy free agent...which is exactly the spot im in...i gave up a 6th for nothing, so now i live with the consequences of picking up an undrafted player as a rotation player..

    the consequence should not be to lose the roster spot compeltely....as long as the max is 8, i think i should be able to pick up an undrafted player.

    I'm in the minority and don't care. But since most people think you should get 7 you shouldn't pick.

    I might as well try, then.

    I'll offer Millsap and Kaman for Dirk and anybody (preferably Asik)

    Throughout the thread people have been saying you should be stuck with 7. Otherwise wouldn't you have picked by now?

    It's not an 8 player max. RowdyRicky, had he so chosen, could have picked a 9th player for extra depth. That's what I would have done. Instead, he used the pick on Rudy T.

    LOL its not like he is going to be getting a superstar. Infact, everybody left is below average pretty much.

    Let him have a guy. Why are people so uptight over this?

    Not really fair when he has 7 guys and everybody else has 8. If Arjun loses, then would it really be fair?

    Good offer but ill respectfully decline. I like both kaman and milsap but it just doesn't seem like I'm getting enough.

    Here's the point: how many other people would have made 2-for-1 deals if they knew they could just pick up an undrafted free agent when all was said and done?

    You honestly don't think you're getting an unfair advantage?

    alright, i won't pick up another player thats cool, i just was seeing what you guys thought because in my opinion trading a 6th round for nothing means i lose that 6th round pick..not exactly the roster spot..but alrighty

    And what did you get in exchange for giving up your 6th round pick? Presumably it was to get a better player or better draft pick, right?
