Great question. Actually there is....sorta. I was thinking about randomizing the selections (randomize button) and then letting the trade posturing for draft picks/selection begin. Only one problem. I'm unable to identify if the trade draft pick option is a function available only to the Commissionsers or if the GMs can do it on the fly, during the draft or both. This is where that inexperience in how this league works plays a factor. This would be a nightmare if it is up to the Commish to manage all of those activites during a draft. So, if you or another GM could do me a favor and poke around the site to see if any trade draft pick options are available to the GMs it will help alot. Otherwise, we will just continue the current course to avoid confusion.

I see a lotta trash talkin already and our teams don't have players yetGonna be nice competive season I see.

Man, trading picks would be cool!
It would only be a nightmare for the GM. I'm fine with it!

I did some searching but didn't see anything about trading picks.

But I did notice a couple of other cool features! I like the "trading block" feature especially.

Looking forward to tip off!

Okay, just got a response from NBA.com support.

It looks like trading draft picks can only be done pre-draft, do not require league approval and can only be handled by the commish. I think we'll pass this time around fellas. The overhead of managing 14 picks for 12 different teams seems a bit ambitous this year.

One thing I must comment on is that the NBA.com fantasy b-ball customer support is excellent. They normally give me answers within the half hour and they have done a great job at answering questions to my satisfaction. (Which is not very easy. )

Thank you for another great season!

good question.

The Yahoo version of the draft has a chatroom, however I don't know how the draft is going to be for the NBA.com version. I'll research this and get an answer back to the group.

Update:

Chat will be provided by NBA.com during the draft.
