Yahoo fantasy b-ball is now open: http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba

Anyone interested in starting up a league? I'd prefer roto to h2h, or we could do multiple leagues.

Well weve had an official Laker board league for the past few years. I'd assume this year the people who were in it last year would have preference to get into this league, then the most active members would get in.

Im assuming someone will start it off soon. I was the admin of it last year, but dont want to do that again.

Ah cool.

Sounds very time consuming though.

Hopefully it's a weekly thing and not a daily thing.

Well last year's league was a daily thing. It was H2H and the lineups were set daily. It was a 20team league with 12 roster spots (PG. SG, G, SF, PF, F, C, UT, UT, BN, BN, BN).

People that I remember being in the league are Miles, tkb, TyCobb, Jfar, Gothik, Squirrel, TylersLakers, 8sReverse, dcash, Jellos, Skandalouz, Borats, and myself. I know im missing a few.

Hmm. Well I couldn't get in the football league, scheduling conflict, but would like to be considered for the bball league. What are you guys referring to, admin, daily stuff? Trade offers, trade veto's that sort of thing. I've been commishing leagues for a while. I'm more than happy to set up a league and Commish a league if you want, and I'd be active. I usually go thru yahoo. Just need to know what you guys like. I assume LIVE draft, 12 teamer...Positions flexible...

PG
SG
SF
PF
C
Util

Do you want it more elaborate than that? G,F,PF-C,? PTS,3PM,REB,STL,BLK,TO. I'm not a big fan of %, that really negates a lot of prime time NBA players at times, up to you guys. How many teams qualify for playoffs. League Votes, etc.

Here's what I think will work best (im basing this on how it went last year and what we can do to improve:

20 Team League (we have lots of posters here, so lets get teh most out of it).
12 Players per team.
Live Draft, Snake Style.
Positions - PG - SG - G - SF - PF - F - C - Util - Util - Bnch - Bnch - Bnch.
Scoring - Points, 3s Made, Rebounds, Assists, Steals, TOs, Blocks, FG%, FT%.
Trade Reject Time: 2 Days
Waiver Time: 1 Day
Trade Review - Commish Vetoes (after it is voted upon by the managers in the league through teh thread that will be up. This is to prevent trades like Pau Gasol for Kwame Brown from ever happening incase the Gms are inactive).
