OzCards Greatest Hero!!!!
the teams came out fair, so their is nuthin to complain about...
Unless you weren't able to be there or put forward your Autopick list. How do you know who I would've picked? I wouldn't have picked Kidd & Arenas with 1 & 2 picks. I definitely would've taken Shaq over both of those.
their still are some good players in the free agent pool, and trades will commence shortly
Trades??? Do you how difficult it is to even get a fair trade through. If I offered Arenas to Ducky for Shaq, he wouldn't accept it, even though given an opportunity, I would've had Shaq picked.
so whats the problem
The problem is not that the draft occurred, but the extreme lack of notice. When I last viewed the Yahoo site, there were still only 14 teams, and the draft status was still as a live draft. I log in Sunday night, only to find that in the last few hours, it seemed you were hallucinating and panicked, thinking the season was about to begin, so you took it upon yourself to get the draft done. Even with 24 hours notice, I would've been there, or I would've submitted my Autopick list, but your original post was less than 3 hours before when you wanted the original draft at 5pm, which you only altered because some people complained and you were able to get more people attending. Therein lies the problem.
