So, wait a second.....what about the zero time between my two picks? Ben, are you factoring in my time between picks one and two?

I count picks at the turn as one pick. I did not count the first overall pick as there was no previous pick.

Yeah, but they aren’t. I could have waited at the turn for a while, but I didn’t. I gave both picks simultaneously. Fair enough, right? Since there was no time prior to the first pick, I believe that should also count as zero. You could also count time from the point at which dh said I could pick. I’d have no problem with that

I can give you 7 minutes for the first pick. That sounds very fair. Turn definitely counts as one pick.

I had to research double the selections and it took me less time than most. You could potentially take the time before I picked for each turn and cut it in half, because I did twice the research in half the time of others. But, yeah, that’s the argument. I don’t have anything beyond that

Buddy over D. Sabonis is my biggest regret...still

Lmfao... arguing the semantics about pick timing. Jeez.

on another note, I’m so proud of you, jcred! Not even close to last !!!!

Just to move the dad convo over here:
@benhoidal My kid just started getting pretty good at make believe like the last two months and it definitely took play time to another level. I look forward to hearing about the cool stuff your kid starts picking up.

Right now she is just giggling at everything which is awesome. She’s just transitioning from being a mamas girl the first three months to being a daddy’s girl so I’m not looking forward to giving this time together up at all.

im home with my kids (5,4,2), it is incredible.

Funny enough, I was considering Buddy a round ago instead of Tatum. Most of my players have a ton of quality minutes, figured it's time to gamble on some 19-20 guys.

Savor it, brother. I have truly enjoyed every phase of being a parent, even when said chapter was way, unexpectedly hard. Live life. Love well. Just saying.

amerk1180 is really good about sending proxies.

I am one who does not refresh his laptop every minute. His time would be lower if he had someone drafting behind him who refreshes more often than me.

i was crushed when i opened amerks proxy and saw collison...really nice backup pg

proxies are definitely key to keeping the pick times down

In the second half of the season, when my teams actually started playing better and I crawled up from the bottom third to the bottom of the top ten, my big adjustment was playing Collison and Barry as little as possible given my personnel.

So, with data in mind (thanks Beavis), are we accounting for the idea that picks that are closer together are easier to wait for? I noticed that dBKC, Gerry and I are all in the top five. Shouldn’t there be some sort of coefficient to account for that? Are we accounting for a moratorium between 3 and 7 AM per time zone when no one can be expected to pick? Have we accounted for Italian daylight savings? Just curious hahahahaha

Does Italy even have daylight savings, or is that just another American curiosity? hahahahaha

There was actually a guy that probably made more sense than LARRY SANDERS! but I couldn't resist that half a season again.. he's an old favorite of mine.

I had the Jazz+10 in a tease. Almost impossible to mess that up in OT.

A 5th rounder in S1, for Danny Granger it is not “if” it is...

I don't know how many people agree with me, but this should be the pick time. In all seriousness, shaming people for being asleep, in different time zones, or busy DURING A PANDEMIC, when people are constantly at serious risk and lifestyles have drastically changed for all of us, is entirely unacceptable.

This, more than any time, is the time to have some compassion. If you're incapable of it, I don't want to know you.

But, if you're going to do this, at least do it right.
