any links to site?
and any league created?
http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba
no league made, just mock drafting at this point... u can join public leagues tho and be drafting within 2 hours ;)
cheers :)
will setup a league as the lockout lifts and a bit more news comes out on players and lineups etc...
this site is better but there r no public leagues up yet unless u join a custom one...http://games.espn.go.com
joined a custom league the other night drafted today and nobody showed :P

im super weak at SG and SF but i have some serious bargaining power...

Is it wrong to actively barrack FOR the lockout now? :P
hell yes i almost got morning glory when i heard AUSTRALIA in the list :o
ive started a small 6 team custom league open to all which will draft at about midnight tonight depending on which state ur in...
being a 6 team league it wont be hard to get a good team, scoring is default, roster is starting 5, 10 utility and 5 bench...
its open to the public so it may fill quickly... http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba/register/tos?league_id=14880&password=nba
if it asks for a password its nba but u shouldnt need it
one slot remaining in the above league...
was a fun draft, i got pick 6 which was my 2nd preference if i didnt have pick 1 as u get the back to back picks...
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/317390_2089456239483_1337539501_1843011_983689470_n.jpg)
starting 5 is a monster 8)
if the season even starts haha 8)
being a draft addict (123 NFL teams) it doesnt really bother me, as a fan id like to see it start up again which it will soon imo

It'll start in Late January. Just like it did in 99. The players union will push it to the brink then roll over at the 11th hour just like last time
that would be ideal for me being im juggling that many NFL teams, finals finish early January i think...
im in :D when the season starts up, NBA is my second fave sport
dust off ur accounts with yahoo and espn, il set up a league for each site...
http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba
http://games.espn.go.com/frontpage/sports?sport=basketball
yahoo r doing mock drafts and espn's should be doing the same in the coming days
yeah Marcz, I'm creating an ESPN team pretty soon, I'll tell you when I'm finished
u can have up to 10 Voldy... might just do the espn league the same way we did the NFL where we all meet and go into a public league
you can't add anyone yet??
1. When will the games start?
2. If i do fantasy NBA, i would prefer to the one on the site that is either more official or more popular. Therefore which one would you advise me to join ( wil only do one)
3. is it easy?
a few of us prefer ESPN, free agency starts December 9th so rosters will begin to take shape... first game should be 25th December
Quote from: Voldemort on November 27, 2011, 02:13:44 PM

nah u need to join a league then attend a draft to pick ur squad... if u go here http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba
and select
mock draft u will be able to practice drafting strategies
stuff this... Toooo complicated
;D in that case go to facebook and search salary cap basketball, u can buy and trade players now on there

Kirilenko wont be able to play until January (injured) and im pretty sure doesnt hava team yet :-\
and pretty sure Mayo isnt the starting SG for Memphis anymore, atleast thats the way they went thru the playoffs
Only picked up Mayo for showers and gigs. Like his name. :P
Didn't know about Kirilenko so picked him up anyway.

Sorry to be a pain, but did I screw it up?
id say ur missing out on a few areas, thing is with head to head stats league u want to read the scoring eg...
Points (PTS) Blocks (BLK)
Steals (STL) Assists (AST)
Rebounds (REB) Three Pointers Made (3PM)
Field Goal Percentage (FG%) Free Throw Percentage (FT%)
r ur 8 categories for a standard league, my team goes H2H with ur team in those 8 categories, u want to win atleast 5 of them to beat me...
its possible to get a nice balanced team but generally i target 6 of those in my strategy...
thats why mock drafts r good, try different approaches and see what works best ;)
ello again BP ;D
goin again?

119 Anthony Morrow, NJ SG
122 Jared Dudley, Pho SF
think i made a better fist of it with this 2nd LeBron team, in fact i rekn thats my best team yet...
surplus of steals,blocks,assists,rebounds,fg% and 3's... needs a bit more scoring perhaps but they r a dime a dozen off the waiver wire
I dunno if Ill draft yet, I seem to screw it up a lot...
some dude with a team called trades galore lust offered me Danny Granger and Jose Calderon for LeBron James ::)
(http://www.randomfunnypictures.org/funny-pictures-1/funny-picture-36650.jpg)
some pplz :P
Trying a live draft, here: http://games.espn.go.com/fba/waitingroom?leagueId=91073
Come and join me :)
In 2 drafts these are my starting 5
With Pick 7:
PG Tyreke Evans, Sac
SG Wesley Matthews, Por
SF Luol Deng, Chi
PF Kevin Love, Min
C Amare Stoudemire, NY
G James Harden, OKC
F Al Horford, Atl
UTIL Paul Millsap, Uta
UTIL DeMar DeRozan, Tor
UTIL Chris Kaman, LAC
BE Baron Davis, Cle

PF Paul Millsap, Uta
C Dwight Howard, Orl
G Stephen Jackson, Mil
F Serge Ibaka, OKC
UTIL JaVale McGee, Wsh
UTIL Darren Collison, Ind
UTIL Jameer Nelson, Orl
Bench Kris Humphries, FA
Bench D.J. Augustin, Cha
Bench George Hill, Ind
Not the best but alright.
hey BB dont stretch too far to fill positions...
the roster is long and their is value still out there so just take the best available players when its ur pick ;)
So my latest concoction. Not bad considering the 8th pick
8 Chris Paul PG NO
13 Pau Gasol PF/C LAL
28 Tyreke Evans PG/SG SAC
33 Joakim Noah C/PF CHI
48 Andrew Bogut C MIL
53 Luol Deng SF CHI
68 Lamar Odom PF LAL
73 Danilo Galinari SF DEN
88 Jason Terry SG DAL
93 Chris Kaman C LAC
108 Brandon Roy SG POR
113 Jerryd Bayless PG TOR
128 Brandon Bass PF ORL
I admit I reached a little with my last two picks. But I like Bayless's upside cause I don't like Calderon all that much and the more I become convinced Dwight is going sooner rather than later from the Magic the more I think Bass could go BEAST MODE on a bad team.
not bad BP, anyone keen to go for a draft now?

Gonna get Metta World Peace off the waivers cos of his name. Or maybe Brandon Roy.

Aldridge will miss at least a week with Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome, a heart condition that cost him nine games during his rookie season, The Oregonian reports.
Spin:
This is definitely a serious matter and comes at the worst time, as the lockout finally ended and Aldridge priming himself for another big year with the Trail Blazers. However, the most important issue is his health, first and foremost.
any interest in a draft this afternoon?
I may be able to do one at around 11pm. May have to work tonight so not sure if I can do any earlier.

Dangerous ;D
I'm The Mbah a Moutes.
yeah i remember that name from another draft, i like that... really slow numbers due to the time over there atm ::)
Yer in the last draft we did, that was my team name. Like to keep it consistent.
Cmon just 2 more.
BP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
he has been a bit quiet today, havent seen him on much
It's ok. League's full now. :)
i wanna draft :(
Wait half an hour. :P
Or 2 simultaneous drafts? Does that work?
yeah it can, ive done up to 3 ;)
http://games.espn.go.com/fba/waitingroom?leagueId=128522&teamId=1&newteam=true
better have an account CM :)

This could be lots of fun. :)
do u think CM is Blackman Dingo ???
You'd think he would've posted if he was.
true... looks like we r goin again :P
Lol. 4th pick this time. Maybe i can get Lebron. ::)
haha lucked out... double drafting gets u busy ay :P which team needs what ah both need doing at the same time ;D
Yer also didn't realise I could choose which players go into what slot.
Does it mean that Josh Smith will be locked into SF or still SF,PF?

u can alter it later but its definitely an advantage to place them as u draft them, SF is a really shallow position for top guys
Well I have J Smooth and Rudy Gay. :)
nice :o try and trade one off for a higher ranked player to a team that doesnt have a good SF even
I will probably just play J Smooth and PF though and Gay at SF.
soz guys i had to go last night.
i want to do a draft.
just created one that starts at 7:30 LA time.
Does anyone want to do one this afternoon?
im busy this arvo :(
noon sunday draft for everyone? pretty sure thats been the norm for most of our organized drafts...
ML and i had ourselves a cracking draft last night...
MELO KING THE MBAH A MOUTES
4 LeBron James, Mia SF 7 Russell Westbrook, OKC PG
17 Carmelo Anthony, NY SF 14 Dwyane Wade, Mia SG
24 Josh Smith, Atl PF 27 Al Horford, Atl C

Anyone else up for one right now?
Sorry BB, just woke up. Will see how I feel in an hour.
i'm up for a draft, although got training in 20 minutes.
Anyone up for one in about 20?
I'm up for one now. :P
Gimme about 20 mins. Watching The League.
traded cp3 and rudy gay for kevin durant and david west... imo Gay for West is a wash both coming back off surgeries and being marginally better than the other in certain aspects, making it a cp3 for Durant trade, now i have Durant and Kobe as my 1-2 punch 8) ive only got the one team left now for a FF draft.
im quite fond of the auction ;D
Sooooo.....weren't we meant to be drafting today? :-\
For?
i had to go to work for a catering job, but im still keen now or tonight...
instead of snake u can do auction ML, heaps slower but u can target the players u want ;)
Think I'm working tonight so won't be able to draft. :(
anyone keen for an auction?
Quote from: Marcz on December 19, 2011, 12:17:53 AM
anyone keen for an auction?
yes!
i haven't done one yet :(
go on elite chat for it.
im in one atm and u cant really do two at once bcos u dont know whats gonna happen, should be free for one in an hour if ur still keen?
anyone want to do one now? although i don't know how to start one..
dont forget to set ur rosters guys... its lookin like a 4 hour a week job for me, i tried to cut it 20 teams but there r 43 i really like so ::) :P
Im guessing I missed out on the FF draft?
we never had a formal one, there is a few leagues with just ML and just BP in them and one with both...
im all out of teams but if u guys want to organize one u should get it done soon ;) season starts in a few days
David Lee for D'andre Jordan u proposed ??? dont mind if i do :P
Newest draft is funny. Guy's going off about being a mathematician and how he studies basketball and he's going to win.
I'm sitting in the 10 spot waiting while he takes his time and runs his mouth. Then I quietly draft Deron Williams and K-Love on the turn. :P
is there any chance of one happening soon?
We should get a FF draft going
I can do one tommorow?

;D he is obviously shower at calculating points, assists, rebounds and percentages...
if u guys want to do one just check in here, have one of u join a standard league, copy and paste the url and post it here so the others can check into the league, just make sure ur signed into ur espn accounts too and have fun ;)
http://games.espn.go.com/fba/waitingroom?leagueId=225300
howd ya go BB?
Ball So Hard University
9 Dwight Howard C Orl
12 Monta Ellis PG/SG GS
29 Tyreke Evans PG/SG Sac
32 Andre Iguodala SF/SG Phi
49 Jrue Holiday PG Phi
52 Marcin Gortat C Pho
69 Danilo Galinari SF/PF Den

89 Jarrett Jack PG/SG Nor
92 Toney Douglas PG/SG NY
109 Anderson Varejao PF/C Cle
112 Paul George SF/PF Cha
129 DeJuan Blair C/PF SA
Might be my strongest draft yet. So many across the board talents. :)
Millsap at 72 :o dunno why pplz dont rate him guy has a well rounded game... crazy top 8 got a bit stretchy at the end but i spose everyone would be with the preseason scores in... Jimmer Fredette going in the 40's ;D it happens

In my mates (10 player league) we had Lamar Odom finally go with the 2nd to last pick overall, and I was able to grab Jamal Crawford with the last pick.
yeah Jamal is in the free agent pool in most my leagues, Lamar is a weird one as i dont really rate him fantasy wise but since doing auctions i realized others really do, paying upwards of $20 :o
this is one of my teams where i had the two best player strategy and just see if i could piece something together...
DURANTULA KING
1 Kevin Durant, OKC SF $78
2 LeBron James, Mia SF $78
33 Jameer Nelson, Orl PG $3
46 Marc Gasol, Mem C $10
65 Andrew Bynum, LAL C $7
78 Marcin Gortat, Pho C $4
81 Elton Brand, Phi PF $4
88 Channing Frye, Pho PF $1
89 Jose Calderon, Tor PG $2
94 Mike Conley, Mem PG $2
95 Roy Hibbert, Ind C $2
102 Jarrett Jack, Nor PG $2
109 Toney Douglas, NY PG $3
its a bit light on in spots but il make it work with a couple of waiver wire pickups...
This is more the auction squad ive been putting together tho, note the bottom bids were me being a smart@$$ throwing my cash around bcos i still had too much left, probably should have targeted a Jefferson/Gordon type but still a ridiculous team that wont need a lot of wire work...
ROTTEN APPLE RENEGADES
22 LeBron James, Mia SF $70
45 Andrew Bogut, Mil C $18
59 Andrea Bargnani, Tor C $16
61 Stephen Jackson, Mil SG $12
62 Paul Millsap, Uta PF $12
67 Manu Ginobili, SA SG $9
72 Serge Ibaka, OKC C $8
73 Raymond Felton, Por PG $5
80 Brandon Jennings, Mil PG $7
81 Devin Harris, Uta PG $5
83 Wesley Matthews, Por SG $6
85 Roy Hibbert, Ind C $11
95 Greg Monroe, Det PF $21
I got Bargnani at around the same spot... He's had a decent pre season and should se plenty of time on the floor you'd think at Toronto.

Has no-one got UD?

he is borderline roster worthy in standard leagues depending what ur team flaws r... he doesnt block, steal or asst much so he is a glue guy in Roto at best... Chalmers has been the Roto King so far, all his stats make for great glue 8)
Sjack, MConley and DHarris of waivers :P blood in the water...
Kobe with 48pts today, made me happy when I saw that ... got me 82pts in my mates league :)
40+ teams an Al Horford in only 1... PHEW 8)

its been pretty thick and fast injury ride to stars, Ginobili, Gordon and now Horford... 1 a week :o
The other two hurt me in about 10 teams >:(
Don't forget Zach Randolph. He and Horford were my starting combo in about half my teams ::)

:o ouch!!! i never pick Randolph, his lack of steals or blocks for a big man can screw with overall production...
worst thing is Pachullia and Speights arent really guys that will put up decent numbers with the extra minutes
currently got the 13th best team in H2H on the whole site
