My team apparently forgot how to shoot last night and cost me 2 cats and probally the playoffs. I mean I had guards lay eggs on ft's and bigs shoot 20% from the field.....wtf

you're only 2.5 games behind the 6th spot holder. nothing is lost yet

1 Kohanz 97.5
2 fran 95.5
3 SA 94
4 YS 93.5
5 SOD 90.5
6 bww 89
------------------------
7 Jazz 87.5
8 RNG 87.5
9 Hopper 86.5
10 Hippo 85
11 east 84
12 jfrost 82.5
------------------------
13 3Si 82

YS [4] vs east [11]
Always nervous. I still don't think my team is that great, only solid.

Jazz [7] vs Hippo [10]
Nothing in this. Guard heavy vs forward heavy, someone will lose.

Sk1p vs Fran [2]
Fran's been good without having to stream like crazy. Don't know why Sk1p has been this bad.

RunNGun [7] vs Mr 24/7
What makes cengaveri look even worse is that he has an alright team and could've challenged. RNG won't have it all his own way I don't think.

SA [3] vs Kohanz [1]
The form team vs the top team. Will be interesting to see what comes of this one.

Hopper [9] vs TTGM
Fresh off a 9-0 win, the first this season, Hopper needs something similar to stay well in the hunt.

SOD [5] vs 3Si [13]
Almost at the must-win stage for 3Si. SOD has been on the slide too after a nice early lead.

jfrost [12] vs bww [6]
jfrost's chuckers are at breaking point. Tough when you take Arenas so early, as I have found out in another league.

Such is the closeness of the league, a week-by-week proposition is best.

The stream-train is back in town...

I think I lost the FT% thanks to Garcia's 5/8

I think you are wrong ... on my last 4 matches I made only 2 moves I only tie agaist you because you got luck on last day imho. this time I made 4 and I can explain why.

Jared Dudley lost time in the rotation
the same happend to Anthony Johnson when rafer alston went to orlando.

1st guy I picked was Sean Marks because I thougth Tyson Chandler was traded then I realized that he wasn´t I could bet I saw that he was traded to oklahoma.

then I send him away and picked Mardy Collins but mardy was also out of the rotation I dont know why... after that was simple I caught 2 guys I think that they can give me something

- Danilo Gallinari and Leon Powe

danilo is getting more PT and I think he can help in % 3pts stl, powe with KG out will also be a very good pick imho. so calm down because there are other that have more 35moves than me. BUT i´m 1st he is dead.

Can someone please activate Wright for me and drop Harpring before midnight PDT so he's eligible to play tomorrow. Biedrins probably isn't playing and I can use some rebounding. There's only nine hours left.

On a sidenote, can we have a 24-hour courtesy window after a IL player becomes active again? I got locked 15 minutes after Wright's game ended. Now, I'm at the mercy of someone acting quickly enough to have him in my lineup when I need him. Meanwhile, Dorell Wright was back for a week before the owner was locked. I appreciate the job you guys do, but it seems a little inconsistent.

1st congrats on a the best comeback ever imho
2nd Ys is the only one that can do that. since he is from New Z. ( if i´m not wrong ) he normally goes to Yahoo at the time that he block you ( in +- 2hours ). so don´t worry.
3rd Dorell Wright owner is sly and sly is locked

about the 24h coutesy window i have no problem with that

p.s- once again ... nice comeback...

Thanks, fraan, but the comeback is still not complete. However, I was inspired by this...

14 Captain Flan top 12
15 jfrost top 12
16 Bww top 12
17 Cy Anklebreakers easy
18 3Si has 5 Centers top 12
19 TTGM Warriors easy
20 Kohanz top 6
21 Marvi Hammer Team easy

you are out

So, thanks.

Jordan - If you're the only one that's doing this, I feel for you. But, I also need to IL Peja and pickup Dudley for Sunday (posted on yahoo). We're getting down to the deadline, so I hope you can get these moves in on time. I'd hate to miss the playoffs because of being locked out for really no good reason. If there was some track record of me abusing the IL rules or streaming players, I'd understand. But, that hasn't been the case. Thanks.

like I said great comeback - you didn´t had the best Schedule and you got to agree with me.

for exemple 3si had imo one of the best teams but when he lost duncan for 2/3 week he said goodbye to the playoffs

Hmmm, logged in more than 12 hours after my request to be unlocked to change his own lineup. I'm not feeling the love here.

Post #1816 » by **Young_Star11** » Sun Mar 15, 2009 8:50 am

Oh man, sorry Hopper15.

I missed setting my own lineup with Chalmers and Korver playing in an early game and they both had big games. It will be very costly for me.

I think I have been too quick to bring out the handcuffs, but Gokce's done it twice in one season - I gotta be stringent. I sincerely hope my indiscretion doesn't cost you a place in the playoffs, because you have put a great run together in the past three weeks.

It is only me doing it, have done all season for two leagues. Once again, I forgot to see the front page. I had 23 hours to get the job done but didn't check it. I only went on to change my lineup once.

Once again, I hope this doesn't incovenience you in any way. Hopefully the contributions of Dudley and B Wright don't end up being decisive - I'm counting on it.

P.S Just looking at things, I'm the team in the top 6 under the most pressure at the moment!

Well, in all honesty, that's what makes this even more fishy.

If Gokce's the one that's made the indiscretion, then put the handcuffs on him. I thought this was more of a self policing league. Can we at least get 24 hours grace going forward rather than 15 minutes? I don't think that's too much to ask. It'll probably be less work for you as well.

Post #1819 » by **Young_Star11** » Mon Mar 16, 2009 4:41 am

I apologise once again Hopper15. Call me a cheat if you want.

Turns out you were beating Kohanz to a pulp that I would NOT have been the most vulnerable team in the top-six. Fact was, Kohanz losing 9-0 would've been good for me, so I can't see why I wouldn't have made your roster adjustments, if I were aware of your requests.

Another fact was, I didn't sign in at all, missed playing Chalmers and Korver (who played great in a 3OT game). I myself end up losing by 12 points, 2 rebounds, and drawing blocks. Chalmers and Korver combined for 48 points, 9 rebounds, and 2 blocks. I lost 3.5-5.5, throwing my playoff hopes into darkness perhaps, where I would have won 6-3.

Just did some quick numbers - hindsight says that having Dudley and B Wright NOT in your line-up won't have affected the result of your match-up I don't think. You would've still lost assists by 1.

Post #1820 » by **Hopper15** » Mon Mar 16, 2009 4:55 am

That's usually the way these controversies work out, with little or no consequence overall. FG% is still up in the air (I didn't buy the instant updates, so I don't know the outcome), as I would have had a net 3-for-4 extra, thus improving FG% minimally. My playoff hopes probably went down with a sprained shoulder anyhow.

Anyways, my point isn't to accuse you of cheating, but rather get a minimum 24-hour window before being locked. I was trying to make a case for why it might be important. I'll ask again...Can we compromise on that?
