Not sure if it's possible or not, but would it be possible to bump the start of NBA free agency back a week to Monday 9th October? I go away on the 2nd for a week and the internet will be spotty at best. I know this for sure because I went there last year too.
Will also be in Canada for the entirety of the NHL prospect draft, and the start of NHL free agency and the NBA prospect draft but I am staying with friends who have WiFi, so that shouldn't pose an issue hopefully. Just thought I'd better mention just in case.

Damn, going to Canada just for the NHL prospect draft? That's pretty intense....

October 9th should still give us plenty of time to finish up free agency before the season opens. As long as there are no objections from other members I believe moving back a week would be fine

Note: I have moved the start of NBA free agency up a day to October 8th due to the NBA season starting a little bit earlier than I expected
