All the transactions are set to 0 so any add/drops you will make from this point onward will count against your yearly limit.

Good luck to all

Hey guys...weird not being in this league after over a decade in it.

For those that didn't know, as part of my plight for tenure (the reason I had to take a sabbatical from this league in the 1st place), I'll be teaching/researching in Austria next year. We've put together a YouTube channel chronicling our adventures. Most of it is witty and sarcastic travel stuff. If you want to check in and see what we're up to...check out the channel:

Best of luck to everyone this season! I'm hoping to join back up next season...not sure I can go 2 years without Fantasy BBall.

Question for the people in this league who live outside the U.S.A.

Are you required to show identification to vote?

Thanks.

Meanwhile, for those outside wondering about those of us inside, it varies by state:

From where I am from, yes. Because if not, some "flying" voters will take the identities of the dead.

Lets give some life into this thread

Fun facts

nº 3 - the champ, sabonis is ranked after two match ups in 2nd and he is winning his 3rd match 6-3 but he is facing a terrible inj run - theres lin and the most expected deron to join in. But he decided to push a litle bit more on the day after Mr Trumps election he leave on his bench smart, olynyk and kaminsky. Thats 5 treys 35pts 14R 5A 1S 1BLK 2TO thats balls

nº2 - speaking of balls I know theres nothing much in waiver but cmon playing with -1 player in the rotation . YES !! YES !! YES !! Only here only TK insted of 14 players team he have 13 and that´s if you count a big important inj players called mike scott ( why in hell do you have him m8 ?? ), withey ( cluless ??? ) and casspi.

nº1- with 9 adds and droops IRNG gets the title of streaming in this league and me & tk are the only teams with zero moves #skill thx God we had a rule otherwise he would had 20 moves by now

I said FUN


OT I want to do 2 for 1 deal everyone on my team is on the block lets make fantasy great again !!! I miss you WB

[floppymoose]

Fun fact:

My team sucks.

I blame this on three things:
1) very little time in early part of draft meant I had to grab Rubio in a rush, and now he's hurt.
2) last two years I haven't been able to watch much hoops and now my knowledge is stale. Last season's Crowder pick was the only sleeper advantage I've had in two seasons.
3) Ibaka gamble was a swing and a miss.

If you miss on your 2nd and 3rd round picks in this league, you are gonna suck.

If you miss on your 2nd and 3rd round picks in this league, you are gonna suck.

1) Rubio injured is a classic BUT if you got him and he can play during PO you might have the luck to win just ask Sabonis. Since MIN decided to grab dunn this year Rubio was a stay away guy
2) ibaka when they went to get biyombo and they still had Vuc and Aaron IDK man
3) sleepers hey you dont get sleepers in the earlly rounds this year everyone was crazy about jokic while they forgot nurkic when you have a coin flip type of situation grab the guy that have less hype dont overpay
4) when your 2nd and 3rd round pick are snm just trade your 1st pick for two mid rounds now and hope ibaka can turn it around and rubio comesback if you dont do nothing you are going to bust in 20 team deep league sometimes BPA for deep is good ( 1 for 2 ) at least try to do something

Had a little too much fun Saturday and forgot to set my roster, lost 2-7; if I set my roster would have been 5-4.
I hate fantasy

2 Bww - Anthony Davis - he never played more than 70 games in 1 season. Potencial to be #1 but with harden and westbrook there set to be fantasy studs why risk it with your 1st round pick and the #2nd pick of the draft D-

39 Bww Dermar Derozan - let me put like this not even espn ranked him this high ( 43 ) rworld ( 55 ) bm ( 69 ) yahoo ( 57 ) razz ( 60 ) but wait does he fit with AD, well everyone fits with him but even still you could do better that said and done F

So far, so good...

yes So far, so good ...

yes i think AD have potencial to be #1 pick but with harden and westbrook there i would have difficult time to choose between either - AD is a high risk pick

and yes I also keep everything i said regarding DD.

so far ...

[fraanciiscoo]
