can post the updates for the next couple of days, then moving from changsha to hangzhou... (far as miami --> vegas). big move! 13 years worth of impulse-buying to box. when it rains, it typhoons!

anyway, not sure how long it will take me to get wired-up in wi-fi, routers and roap'a-dopers. i'll try and stay on top of it.

on the homefront here, DH opts to dive from the highboard. he's never jumped from this height before, but his girlfriend is watching from down below. he has to make the jump now, but he feels that shrinking worm under the trunks. yikes!

but what does he care! efg%, boards and some serious balling. DH inhales, two arms like giant wings and springs off the board feet first... a backward flip? good god! Sweet girlfriend looks horrified... yet warmly stimulated.

Breaks back, or gets laid? 

I was thinking of trying to deal for a second first rounder to pair Dwight with.. another big. I was not thinking of Chuck though.

pretty chalk so far at least in terms of drafted order - dh555 takes the leap

realllly wanted dwight and mailman....came down to chuck vs drob and i literally just ran into barkley the other day as he was going into a planet fitness...ill take that as a sign

bird @ 22... what's the world coming to?

Curry's stock rising

I grew up watching the 77 Blazers, the great Sixers teams and the awesome Laker and Celtic teams in the 80's. To see Curry picked before Bird . . . well it made me sick to my stomach.

Things just got crazy . . . the reigning champ eleibowitz got Larry Bird at # 22 and then snagged Magic Johnson in round 2??? WTH!!!

Yeah stunning Vancem but can't say im complaining :-)

I considered Bird over Wade but I'm at peace with my decision.  I wasn't man enough to go with either of the guys I considered taking over Camby, who was a safe but useful pick.

I got Olajuwon at # 32 is that good or bad? Plus, I've traded Stockton and my 4th round pick at around # 80 or so to sixernuggets for his 2nd and 3rd round picks # 47 and # 50. Then I still have my own 3rd rounder # 65. Olajuwon is an all time favorite player of mine but I don't know if a title contender can be built around him in this league.

It's lucky..cuz I started to take him in the 1st round but went with KG instead. I've built too many Olajuwon/Oscar teams so I took KG. Try'n to get Oscar to trip/doub for a season average.

I won 55 with Dream, without really playing too much into matchups and settings.  I think if I didn't run into 98 I was a shoe-in for the finals.  ALAS...another playoff choke.

I will be hard pressed to do what you did mikee1. Hopefully, I won't hold the draft up tomorrow. Its difficult to proxy this far out and I'll be gone between 1:00 pm and untl at least 6:00 pm.
