proposal for next year: 

 

make the buy-in $80, and the payouts as follows:

regular season: $200

winner: $400

runner-up: $200

 

or

 

make the buy-in $100, and the payouts as follows:

regular season: $200

winner: $500

runner-up: $200

third place: $100

reminder of my two proposals for buy-in and payouts. 

I would vote for the highest buy in option but I'll go with whatever the group wants. And Derka don't you dare try and draft Miles before me. 

Is scoring 8-cat/9-cat or just points? I prefer cats but don't really care either way that much

it's head to head categories. 12 categories in all:

PTS, FTM, 3PM, AST, OREB, DREB, FG%, BLK, AST, TO, DD, TD

you play H2H against an opponent every week and compile a box score. top 6 teams make the playoffs, top two seeds get a bye week. 

i just reactived the league.  to the two newbies, send me your email address and i'll send you an invite.  you'll be taking over someone else's team from last year.

excellent. the league has been filled. let's hash out the buy-in and payout structure, and i'll knock out the draft order as soon as that's done.

@BigOrange1 @Baboontyme @TheFlyingBoat @BallamaticBevo @ztejas @RexWilson @Radical Larry

 

any thoughts on the buy in? as of now it's at $100, and the majority is cool with that then i can do the draft order today.

$100 is good with me.

remind me of the team names for the two people i'm replacing?

i figured out one of them.  was @Capn81 dame's dames?

  • Author

well, it sounds like everyone is in, and board with $100 entry fee, so i will have Mom Dukes do the draft order when she gets off work. 👌🏼 

  • Author

edit- she's at work, and she's going to do it there. she'll film it as usual. her volleyball practice ends at 5:30 CST, so some time after then we'll have the order.

Edited by shadow_operative

I'll keep KD for my 4th rd pick and Jaylen Brown with my 6th rd pick.

I thought your mom might take me out to dinner before she fucked me. 

 

Per above - what's the limit on keepers? 2 years?

iirc it was at least three years. 

I forgot how shitty my draft was. Completely turned my team around in FA. Not sure I even have 2 keepers. 

What are the keeper rules again? Two max per team and no players drafted in the first two rounds from last year?

yes, this is correct. and keepers move up one round each year.

Props for the latin definition.

i'm just remembering- something happened last year, and we couldn't actually insert the keepers into the draft, so we had to list the keepers here, and then everyone just had to avoid drafting those players. i don't remember exactly what happened, but we should definitely try and sort that out before the draft this year.

speaking of which, i assume the draft will be the night before the opening game, some time around 8-9pm CST?

Can someone post my roster? Big O, pm'd you my email. 

i have to make sure that i'm giving you the correct team.  can everyone on this thread confirm that their team is not Dame's Dames?

Hang on - let me check their draft picks from last year. 

Jk. Not my team. 

i'm 90% certain i'm correct, i'd just like to have it verified and avoid the hassle of trying to correct it if i'm wrong.

How do I tell who my eligible keepers are? I tried to go back to the league history and view the draft recap from last year but for some reason I just get a blank page when I access it.

are you able to access this: https://fantasy.espn.com/basketball/league/draftrecap?leagueId=113346?

if so, your team is UT Intramurals Age 30+.  you can not keep your first or second round pick.

if you cant access it, i can copy it over to google sheets and share with you and baboon.

I can see 2022 just fine (just shows draft order) but when I try to go to 2021 it shows a blank page

Thank you! I can see why I am replacing this guy jk jk there are some decent values to play with

I was new last year. It was worse than what you inherited.

Oh no, I agree. I think Vucevic could be to 10, Chris Paul could be around 20 and JJJ could be top 50. Some nice values. Probably will keep the latter two 

Would you guys consider scoring in this league pretty standard?

@BigOrange1 do we know how to insert the keepers into the draft?

I think we have to do it the same way we did last year which is just manually drafting them where we say we're going to draft them.
