anyone know how to check rosters from last year? I have been searching but cannot find it in yahoo now.

Main league page, upper right hand corner just below your menu where you see "my team", "players", etc.

Look for a drop option that is preset to say "2012". Pick "2011".

Added Horford as a Keeper, upon receiving Matt Busers advice. Haha

Am even considering Ilyasova, after Matt told me to do so as well.
However, that was before he knew about the $30 price tag for the Keep.

OK I am going to announce my keepers.

Al Jefferson, Pau Gasol, Steph Curry, and John Wall. I did not want to keep 4 but I could not pick between Pau and Al.

Solid picks. Will add them to the list.
Hopefully Steph manages to stay relatively healthy this year.

I am taking a bit of a risk on Curry, he shoots the ball so well when healthy that I did not want to let him go.

Yeah, you just need to hope his ankles hold up.

I want all the players of my opponents to stay relatively healthy this year. Of course I don't wish big injuries upon those players, just a broken kneecap here and there.

Can't argue with that. I've already got my Lebron James and Russell Westbrook voodoo dolls... er, I mean.. action figures.

Maybe it's an idea to copy the league rules to the first post?

If I'm correct, there are a bunch of players, now keepers, whose owners can't carry those players to next season. Only one of those keepers can be kept next season, for $50 on a franchise tag. From the now confirmed managers and keepers this is true for:

Apollo: Aldrigde, Howard, Rondo
Mack North: Wade, Williams, Griffin

I'm up for trade discussions if you guys want to get some of the value over $30 you'll lose at the end of the season. The earlier, the better.

Here's a quote from the rules... "Each player can be tagged as a keeper twice (ie: you draft the player, you play the season and then you use your keeper tag on the player so that he returns to your team the following season. You can do this two times and as such this will result in you being able to hold a player on your roster for up to three seasons."

Since this only year 3 of the league, no one has to forgo keepers, or declare them to be franchise players yet unless they want to guarantee they stick around longer. That's if I'm reading this right haha

But I agree Soft Euro, that it would be a good idea to post the rules in this thread somewhere so that we can all become reacquainted with them.

With "next season" I meant 2013-2014. So I agree. That means tradingtime for 3th year keepers this season. And I'm Everyone's favorite trading partner.

That makes sense! haha i misunderstood. It happens all the time. Ask my wife! haha

I'll be franchising D12 so Rondo and Aldridge are on the market if you want to talk trades. I don't think I'll let them hit the open market.

Thanks for clarifying for everyone guys(SW and SE). We have a good league right here.

Rudy Gay falls into that category for me. This will be the 3rd season I'll have him and he's fantastic but i don't think he's worth the $50 franchise price tag. Rudy is super reliable, plays big minutes and is a stat stuffer right across the board! And yes that is a pitch I will be looking to move him.

Wow i can't wait!! Apollo let's change draft date and draft TODAY!! lol

[MangoKid]

Sorry I'm late to the party.

How many keepers do I get to select?

[MangoKid]

Iknow 2 off of the top of my head - Bynum and Carmelo for sure. Not sure on Bosh, Amare and Kevin Martin or Jrue Holiday.

[Apollo]

Ha, ha, on a more serious note I'll have my people call your people and maybe we can set something up to talk trade scenarios?

One thing we need to determine for all teams is the keeper status of each player. Some teams may have final year keepers and not know it.
