Hey Matador, did you read this from ESPN? Bryant said he recently saw a TV show that listed the NBA's four all-time top centers as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain and Hakeem Olujawon. Bryant couldn't wait to tell O'Neal what he heard. "So I went to the big fellow and said, 'Did you hear about this?' '' Bryant said. "He was like, 'All right. All right.' But it seems like he has all the motivation in the world to come back and just destroy. It's going to be interesting.'' O'Neal has said that he'll return with a vengeance. His teammates believe him. "We talked about it before,'' Bryant said. "All this talk of everybody picking the Kings and the Kings talking all this type of trash and Yao Ming coming into the league, it kind of lit a fire under him.'' Thanks again, Mat
Your welcome. I think Shaq can be the best fantasy player in the NBA IF he stays healthy. The past few years he has had injury problems slow him down. I hate injuries. What good is having a great player if you can't put him in your line-up consistently? Also TD can play the F or C position so that's why I picked him. I could come to regret that decision if Shaq has a season similar to the 99-00 campaign. Good luck.
Could always switch him with someone in the other league. That way, he'll still be in a league so he won't be left out in the cold. By the time their draft rolls around, he might be back. Just an idea.
I don't like the idea of replacing SSG, but if he doesn't make an appearance sometime in the next few days, we may just have to do that. Hasn't posted since the 4th I think, obviously hasn't checked his mail or the bbs in the past 2 days. Regardless, his picks need to be taken care of tonite, and before 10 imo. Giving him til 7 or 8 tonite is ample time to allow him to get on the bbs and give us some more "prime" time when everyone is usually available to pick and get through more of the draft. In all the drafts I've been a part of 24 hours on the clock means auto-pick. How about this: we vote on an impartial outsider whose bball knowledge we trust(Pued for example) to make the first few picks. If SSG doesn't come back let's say, over the weekend, then we give the team to the person who made the picks. Whatever, I just want something to happen soon. Is the draft just going to come to a stop when PSJ leaves tommorow or is he going to make a list or get someone to pick for him?
Ok gang, Puedlfor has graciously accepted to pick for SSG until he returns. The draft is back on. I hope you did your homework Pimp (you certainly had enough time)
