2011-2012 NBA Thread: The Chris Paul and Dwight Howard sweepstakes

[tyven]

Nick Young staying in DC

Sad he isnt gonna be winning a ring with point god but at least i can still watch him play in person for cheap

[Cail]

Kobe is officially listed as day-to-day. Didn't see anything anything about surgery etc

[Correction]

looks like kobe tore a ligament in his wrist. yikes. dunno how significant a lunotriquetral ligament tear is but not a good start for the lakers, regardless.

Hahaha so LA sportswriters have an out when the Lakers have their worst season in ten years and can't be assed to look at coaching or personality problems on the team. Awesome.

[kisada]

ok. i have draft scheduled tentatively for 7pm est this saturday. i'll hand out invites as soon as i get a couple more confirmations. this one will prolly be a yahoo league since most of the people i know are using that instead of espn.

send me a PM with your e-mail if you want to join!

gonna make it friday 7pm est.

[Moss]

works for me. how many spots left to fill?

[kisada]

5 after you and arvin join. i'm guessing we might have a couple more from bg join up (boyiee was looking for a league). also holding another draft tonight and i'll grab some of those guys too if needed. did you have someone you wanted to invite?

[Moss]

yeah I have at least one friend that would join

[Dimmauk]

I think my league still has spots open.

If someone wants to jump in

League ID - 69366 and PW - 1234

[Moss]

I would have joined dimmy if fouls weren't one of the categories >.<

[kisada]

hah, watching clippers/lakers game. deandre jordan just tried a one-handed alley-oop, it bounced off the rim and almost decapitated mike brown.

btw the league will be 8/10 once arvin sends me his email and my rm gets back from vegas. so if you wanna invite your friend, moss, pw is joinup, which'll put us at 9/10.

If I can't buy the NBA TV package, and want quality games (not firstrowsports), how can I get them? Is there an NBA online package that will get me all the bulls games?

NBA League Pass is going to be free to most cable subscribers during the season's first 2 weeks, In Demand says.
