Anyone interested in this?
http://games.espn.go.com/frontpage/basketball
Maybe, depends how many are interested. If a lot are I'll make a league.
I'm up for it :D. Love my good old basketball 8).
Make 1 a live draft while the other a live auction.
how does it work, with the draft an all.
I'm only interested in the Pick One Challange on NBA site. I'll get a league for that when it's up and running.
No idea how it works or anything but I'm up for a challenge.

What's that?
Where you get points for Rebounds, Points and Assists. You can only choose one player per day and you can't chose the same player again for the whole year. Rookie's get Double as well. Players like Kobe can score on average 40 -50 points per game, sometimes more depending on who they're playing.

whats the code
Need to know how many people are interested as you can only start up a league to a certain number of people. 10-20 the options.
I will play.
When does the nba start? and doesnt one team play three times a week how will trades work?
Usually starts at end of October, and they play on average 3-4 times a week.
yep im keen
Yeah I'll be up for it. I love the NBA so will be good to do it with you guys as well.
Go Celtics!
I go in. Even though I know less about the NBA than I do the NFL (Which is already nothing)
Has this started?
i'll be in...i prefer NBA over NFL or soccer manily bcause i know more players and because nba is on one hd at reasonable times..lol
I did the NBA (and NBL) one last year and I didnt like it. I much prefer the AFL fantasy style

Password: fanfooty
I'm in.
ive never done nhl but id give it a go i watch at playoff time so id hava rough idea of knowing some players
I've joined up even though I have to go somewhere that day :). I'll likely be back for last half of the draft if it goes on for 2 hours or so.
its a much shorter draft HP shouldnt take much longer than 30-40 minutes only 8 teams and 13 rounds
I'll set up my preferences. Doubt I'll get back by the time the draft starts/ends then :(.
Sorry guys.
il give this a miss unless u need a few more a few days be4 the draft ;)
I'm in... need to get back into nba again now lol
sorry HP just went with the same draft time as the NFL :)
That's fine. WOuld of had school either way :P.
Looking forward to beating you all ;).

Looks like no draft
since we didn't fill the league yet the draft will not be held this is an exact quote from there FAQ page
In Standard Leagues, the draft will only take place once all 8, 10 or 12 owners have joined (depending on the size of your league). To set a new draft date/time, league members must vote in the league referenda. Please keep in mind that you will need at least 6 votes for each option for the change to be made.
In Custom Leagues, the scheduled draft date/time can only be modified by the League Manager.
so it seems when we fill it we have to actually vote for a new draft time

Yeah the weekend would be a lot better. That way, HP can be in it as well. Or if it has to be a week day, might want to look at a night time draft around 8.

You should join this NBA stock exchange game. It's free and DT talk did a post on it and made a league. There is a payed option to get live scoring but just go to nbasetalk.com for live scoring. It's even up now for the preseason games so you can do your research

Daz had the same thing. I think it's because Marcz dropped one of the people he was trying to trade
He made me 2 offers with different players involved I think.
yeah sorry guys the trade had to be cancelled to make a pickup... Darko is actually showing some promise 7 years after being drafted behin lebron and infront of melo bosh and wade

brandon roy is looking iffy for the rest of the season too, they have rested him currently and he is listed as day to day but the problem is he has bone on bone in the knee he has had continual issues with

What about Beasley or is he a PG?
he is a SF/PF option this year mate
hey managers just a reminder to try and stay active and set ur rosters for a week at a time, u must submit a roster for every day of the week, i know most of u know this anyway, the closer the games r the more interesting it is for everyone, bcos we r an 8 team league there is a wealth of talent in the free agent pool and u can aquire up to 7 players per week, when u make a move u will also need to redo ur roster for that players games... i noticed mat from the nfl league was performing roster duties for inactive owners let me know if u think i should do this to help make it more competitive cheers
note i wouldnt be aquiring players or making any moves just making sure that all the players for those teams were rostered on the days they r playing so the team is going at its full potential
iset mine a month ahead so i don't forget and everyweek i double check
I keep forgetting about the league. I'll try and set mine for another week or two just incase :).
yeah its celtic charm and the ateam that arent setup im not sure who they are... i know daz is starting slow bcos he has had some injury troubles. theres a couple of leagues im in and the comp is so tight it keeps it really interesting with waiver moves and weekly matchups but il leave it if u guys dont think its worth doing
on a different note who do u think gets the better end of this trade
Blake Griffin 4 Andre Iguadala straight swap?
If you had Miami's Big 3 then your last game would have been impressive
LeBron James (30 points) imposed his will offensively in the first half and Dwyane Wade (26 points, eight rebounds, six assists and four steals) did the same in the third quarter as the HEAT cruised to a 105-94 home win over the Wizards on Monday. Chris Bosh scored 20 points
yeah other catergories r important too like fg% and ft% which d wade has been terrible at since his wrist injury... u wouldnt notice it in his general stat line tho bcos he is still putting up 20points but like kobe yesterday 29 points on 25 shots is almost doing ur team more harm than good

nah i gave up on that ages ago but i have pulled this trade off twice in two different leagues straight after griffin had that 44point game against the knicks
the wait was worth it the Booze man come tolife and an only get better form here
and damn what a game from rose yesterday
good things come to those that wait ;) yeah rose is killing it... his projected stats didnt really come close... fantasy wise they knew he could score and dish but this year he is up in every stat by 20% apart from shooting %'s r the same but 3pointers have gone from 0.2 a game to 1.2 a game and blocks r up 50%... westbrook has been breaking out in a similar way both will be top 10 in the draft next year

:o r u serious he was ranked at 40 which made him a 5th or 6th rounder :-X that makes me sick he sat there that long :'(
Pick 61. I looked last night :P
yeah i just checked then and loathed the misses in the 2nd half of my draft... can u believe his coach wasnt giving him big minutes bcos they had a few spats with each other early in the season? so what if u dont get along with a guy if he can put up those type of numbers u just let him play
How was John Wall's last performance rated?
shot 50% from the field 100% free throws dished out 14 assists and scored 22 points thats great in anyones language
You would like those figures especially out of 1st year rookies :)
Blake Griffin's last month has been amazing
yeah i have him in half my teams some people drafted him way to high like 1st round but if he was available around round 5or6 id snap him up

Joakim Noah out for 8-10 weeks after thumb surgery
garnett is down for 2weeks with a calf strain/knee injury... the celts say calf but he was clearly clutching at the knee he had surgery on in a sportscenter highlight package... and brandon roy is out indefinitely with his ongoing knee issues, feel sorry for the guy very young amazing talent and already has bone on bone issues in both knees, looks like microfracture surgery for him which means next year is also in doubt too as its a 12month recovery
I love watching Roy play. One of my favourites and certainly up here in the top SG's in today's game. Sad the Trailblazers will have to go that long without their lead man. Will hurt their finals chances no doubt.
yeah definitely and dont forget greg oden out again... they couldve had kevin durant instead of greg oden with that roster :o
But with Roy there, they needed a big man more desperately at that time than another Shooter. In theory it was a good move, but in real life, things are never like they seems ::).
out of 10 teams 9 made Playoffs and 8 r going to the Finals :D

correction 7 going to the finals i lost on a standings countback...
won 6 of the 7 finals series, in the one i lost i was matched up against a bloke who plays cash leagues aswell from the US, we played in round 1 which was a 2 week matchup and we split catergories 4-4 second time round again 4-4 and in the finals 17 days long we split it 4-4 again ::) which i think counts back to regular season record where he finished 99-44-1 and i finished 98-44-2... epic struggle for 3 draws lol ;D
in another i had a regular season split series with was a chap that had about a 6 game winning advantage in the standings, so i knew i had to pull off some wire moves at the right times... he used his in the first 2 weeks but make a head way into any of the catergories i held advantages in, and in doing so he neglected his 3 point catergory as he had 20 3's lead on me... with a handsome lead in 4 of the catergories i knew i could go for broke on 3s and with 17 wire moves left over the final 3 days i went to work and ended up beating him by 9 three pointers giving me the 5-3 victory :D
the other 5 were convincing wins my way so im pretty happy with 6 titles out of a potential 10 at the beginning of the season ;)
