I thought the messages on chat were just hyperbole until looking at the calendar listed in the rules.
The season should've started at the time of the NBA lottery, and Tuesday, July 1 is the first day of our rookie draft. Needless to say, neither deadline will be met.
I realize that we may not all have access to the chat, and it's easy to forget what the established schedule should be. (I forgot until today.) So, if there is going to be an amended schedule it would be useful to know.
In the worst case scenario that the 2014/15 season is being locked out, it would also be a kindness to make an announcement to that effect.
Thanks.

I am truely disappointed, because LMs are not suppose to be disappear like this. This is the reason why so many league die, hope it's not the case here and we can get it back on track.

look maybe we should be a little more patient & cut the LMs some slack, like most of us they also have other aspects of life that their dealing with. Ask yourselves this, Up until now has Jose or Tiago given us any reason to question them???... If I'm right I believe Jose might be having internet problems & I recall Tiago being busy with work. Look things are slow granted but the season won't start til late October. The actual NBA Draft just happened on Thursday & Free agency gets underway on Tuesday morning at 12:01 am. SO the NBA off-season is now developing, at least both LMs took the time to Create the draft order which gives us time to research the prospects. So why are some of us panic-stricken???....

We have multiple owners who haven't logged on in a while. They might never come back. Who knows.

Yes, we have been away from some time. It's a mix of busy schedule, personal reasons, starting a fantasy sports company in Portugal, vacations.
And most of you probably remember that we had the same exactly conversation last season.
So, he are in fault, no doubt about it, but I don't feel there's any reason to panic.
We still have lots and lots of time until NBA season starts, and most of the league's owners are with us for some time now and there's no reason to believe they will not come back.
We should have 4-5 teams to fill, like in every league every summer.
I posted the draft pick order with ownership today, and will send an email/PM to everyone to get things started.

welcome back, Tiago. Thank you for the update, but I think July 6th draft is a bit too soon as we need to fill a few teams, I suggest we delay the draft for a week, you need to fill those teams and give them some time to make trades prior to the draft. What do you all think?

What do you all think? Sounds silly cause I've been rushing things, but since we waited so long we're gonna need to make sure we have an active league before the draft.

I agree that if the league needs new owners the draft should be moved forward like a week.
