We have a few people working on various issues. I'll let it get back focused to draft talk, but other than the +1 and some of the "hit user limit" / glitching due to attachments, if you have any other pressing needs, please just shoot me or Soul Bro a DM and I'll make sure it gets resolved when the team does a larger offseason update. Without getting too technical, the board has been around a long time and there have been many migrations, so these moves are very "delicate" so as post history and such does not get deleted. When that occurs the board will probably be inactive for a period of 1 - 12 hours, but we'll give you a heads up before then.

He may end up choosing 1, but they just put that number as a placeholder since he's the team's first round pick.

I'll be there. Elfrid Payton will also be signing autographs. http://www.nba.com/magic/draftparty

It's a tough start with all the road games early in the season. If they can get through that part, it bodes well for the rest of the season.
