Fantasy basketball league

[JustMeAdrian]

hey guys! just created a fantasy bball league...... lookin for people to play!

all levels can enter... don't matter to me!

PM if ya want details... live draft is set for Sat. Oct 29 at 4PM EST.

Thanks for the interest! :)

[JustMeAdrian]

alright so i've had one person join.... what's up with that!?

[Pantera Canes]

I might be interested. Never done basketball before. How much work is involved in it? Do you set the lineup every day or every week or what? I know it can't be as easy as football where you have one game a week and every team has the one game or are off. In basketball you can have a game every day or no games. Wondering how that gets resolved.

i'm doin it where you set your lineup for the week... every day is too much of a hassle.

how does the scoring work?

Head-to-Head - Categories Scoring


Matchups
Each week your team will play one series against another team in your league. The series will begin on Monday of each week and end on the following Sunday. Your players' statistical totals from the NBA games played during that week will be tabulated from your starting roster and they will be totaled for each category your league is using.

The eight (8) Categories Are:
Free Throw Percentage (FTP)
Field Goal Percentage (FGP)
Points (PTS)
Three Pointers Made (3PM)
Assists (AST)
Blocks (BK)
Steals (ST)
Total Rebounds (TRB)

The five (5) Categories Are:
Points (PTS)
Assists (AST)
Blocks (BK)
Steals (ST)
Total Rebounds (TRB)

The three (3) Categories Are:
Points (PTS)
Assists (AST)
Total Rebounds (TRB)

The team with the higher total in a particular category will receive a Win for that category, while the team with the lower total in a particular category will receive a Loss for that category. If the totals in a particular category equal each other, then a Tie will be awarded to each team. The Wins, Losses, and Ties are then entered into the league standings and are tracked throughout the regular season. At the end of the fantasy basketball season, the top team in each division and 2 wildcard team(s) (the best record amongst non-division winners) will advance to the playoffs to compete for the League Championship. The remaining teams will compete in the consolation bracket.

Tiebreakers
When two or more teams have the same number of wins, losses, and ties in the league standings, the order of finish among those teams will be determined by the following tiebreakers.

Tiebreaker for League Standings
1. Head-to-Head record of teams in question
2. Head-to-Head record against like opponents
3. Virtual Coin Toss

When two teams have the same number of categories won in their playoff matchup, then the winner will be determined by the following tiebreakers.


Tiebreaker for League Playoffs
1. Regular season winning %
2. Regular season total wins
3. Regular season Head-to-Head record of teams in question
4. Virtual Coin toss

if you need another person i will try it, just not sure how much time i will have to put in or how well i will do, also if you could move the draft up a few hours :D

[NYBucsFan]

I would, but it's bad enough your team always beats my team. I can't run the risk of losing to you in something else. :p

[JustMeAdrian]

for anyone that wants to play......

it's at nba.com amd

League ID: 23341
League password: woohoo

[jls-bucs]

Haha, what a stylin' password.

I would join...but I know zero about NBA...so I'll pass.

[JustMeAdrian]

[JustMeAdrian]

[Pantera Canes]

I will probably get beat as bad as I did to you last week though

1. Go into League Home.
2. Go up to the Draft tab and go to "Import Rankings."
3. At the bottom it will say "Create New Player Rankings." Click on that.
4. There should be something like "Create New Player Rankings." Again.
5. Create a title and either use default rankings or start clean.

There you go, enjoy!

[JustMeAdrian]

3 more spots left! draft today at 4 PM!

[JustMeAdrian]

2 more... i'm desperate. PLEASE!

[JustMeAdrian]

Alright guys..... don't really know what happened with the draft. For some reason it refused to start and I couldn't find any button to push if there was one. I'll continue to look and continue to try to find 2 more people to join... maybe that was the problem? I don't know...... If i can't find anything I guess i will postpone it to tomorrow or something.....................

EDIT:
Figured it out.....

Didn't fill up so it wouldn't draft. Again, need 2 more people!

EDITx2:

Draft set for tomorrow at 4 EST (yes i know during bucs but just watch while ya draft!)

[Pantera Canes]

PM some people and ask if they want to do it. Try people who contribute in the fantasy football threads. That would be my advice. The only reason I joined the two football leagues from the TBBB was because I got a PM for them.

Not sure if you got in or not but the league is full and already drafted.

by the way, what kind of trades are these?
Jamison, Antawn (WAS, F)
LaFrentz, Raef (BOS, F/C)

for

Garnett, Kevin (MIN, F)
Ming, Yao (HOU, C)


and

Davis, Ricky (BOS, G/F)
LaFrentz, Raef (BOS, F/C)

for

Daniels, Antonio (WAS, G)
McGrady, Tracy (HOU, F/G)


Did the guy who is getting by far the better end of both deals break into the system or something? I truely hope all these get protested and canceled. Both are completely one sided trades.
