OT: 2022 RealGM 76ers Forum Dynasty BBall League Yr 3

[GoSixersBro]

Hi Managers,

Welcome back to our eleventh season of the RealGM 76ers Forum Fantasy Basketball League!

Just to recap our last season, it was Cincinnati Sixers bringing home the 2020-2021 Championship and also the first title since our league switched to a Dynasty format in 2019. Congratulations again, Cincy!

As discussed prior to the 2020-2021 season, this upcoming 2021-2022's Rookie (& Free Agent) Draft will work a little differently than last year's draft. The number one overall pick was awarded to the 2020-2021 Consolation Bracket Champion which was our very own Wizrd's of Westwood.

So my apologies folks, no live stream lottery with bingo balls on Twitch this year. Sorry to disappoint.

The rest of the draft order will simply be by final standing when the 2020-2021 Playoffs ended while Rounds 2 and 3 will also simply be the same exact order with Wizrd's of Westwood back in his "regular finish" spot.

Note: draft order is affected by any Playoff team who beat a higher seeded team, so in this case The Real Murray, the 2 seed at the end of the regular season, will select before Doncic4Senate, the 3 seed, each round because Doncic4Senate eliminated The Real Murray in the Semifinals.

I will be setting up a spreadsheet with 2021 Draft Order along with updates to any picks that were traded during last season. Feel free to ask any questions.

2021 Rookie Draft Order:



The start of the 2021-2022 NBA Season will be Tuesday, October 19, which is less than 2 months away. So here is what I need from all managers:

First and foremost, LET ME KNOW you are still planning on managing your team. You can PM me on here OR reply to this thread OR email me (chrismac349 AT gmail.com), whichever you prefer. Just let me know you still want to play A.S.A.P. (because if anyone does not want to continue we will need to find a new manager to replace in a timely fashion).

NEXT >
Please inform me which players you plan to keep. I will be e-mailing you all/posting a spreadsheet here (as soon as I can) of the current rosters (how they exactly were when last season finished). Your job is to select ONLY 12, no more, no less, of the players you plan to keep. Your roster might currently have 15, 16, or 17 (due to IR spots being used when last season ended). Regardless of how many players are on your team on the spreadsheet, you get to keep 12. Your keepers will be due to me a couple days before our scheduled Rookie Draft (date & time to be announced, likely within the first two weeks of October).

GOOGLE DOCS SPREADSHEET W/ROSTERS: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRW18nSxAmmVDNJaupMM7175GjA3BQKrDmdrSOqzOYlc6l12LwQ2yCofFjPLRgkU8gMZYbpnTzv11Pq/pubhtml

If you are experiencing trouble with opening the rosters spreadsheet, follow this link to an image of it (right click, Open Image in New Tab to enlarge): https://i.imgur.com/1JX3JQi.jpg

All players not kept go into the FA pool where they can be selected, along with the 2021 Rookies, in our three round draft.

As For Trading: I will be opening up the trade market September 1st at midnight (EST).

You may make deals with other managers starting at this time before the draft. However, keep in mind while trading, you still must make your cuts before the draft where your roster will only have 12 players before drafting (aka don't get stuck with more than 12 guys you are very eager to keep).

Also to keep in mind, while trading draft picks, both teams involved must be receiving the same amount of draft picks they are trading away, as we've established when we switched this league to the Dynasty format two years ago. If this is unclear, PM me.

Also regarding draft picks, prior to the 2021 draft, teams may only trade this draft's picks (2021 only, no trading 2022 picks until after this upcoming season begins).

Feel free to use this thread for any questions, discussion, etc. I will try to keep everyone updated as often as possible since we have less than 2 months to get everything ready before tip-off.

Thanks,

The returning Champ will be back!

Also, Tyler Hero is officially on the market. Would like to swap a late round pick for a first rounder to send him your way.

[Cru Thik]

Who wants Ben Simmons? I can't do any worse than Morey right?

[GoSixersBro]

Just a little update:

10/12 teams have replied that they are returning for the 2021-2022 season!

I am just waiting to hear back from Ball Lives Matter and Wizrd's of Westwood!

As for the draft, I am strongly looking at October 16 or 17 to be the date of our Rookie Draft. That means keepers will be due to me the week before (Oct 15 the latest) so please get them to me when you are able to.

Thanks!
Chris

[GoSixersBro]

Another update: all managers are returning for the 2021-2022 season!

Please send me your keepers by October 15 if you haven't already. Thank you!

Hi Everyone,

Been awhile since I checked in, but just some important notes for this week and the near future:

This week (Week 18 Match-up) is a two week match-up due to the All-Star break. So don't count yourself out next Sunday night and set your line-ups for all the days there are games from today until February 27th.

Also, the trade deadline is quickly approaching. Last day for trades is Thursday, March 3. There hasn't been much trade activity this season, but now is the time to address any holes in your roster as the Playoffs are just around the corner. Keep in mind you are able to trade next season's draft picks, but both sides will need to acquire the same amount of picks as they are sending out.

Any questions, feel free to contact me via email, on the league page or PM's on RealGM.

Thanks

Hi Managers,

It's been awhile since the last update, but we are almost midway through our final week of the season.

The Championship round match-up ended up being quite a surprise.

(4) The Baba Yaga took down (1) Floppers in the semi-final 5-4, while (6) Ball Lives Matter ousted (2) Pippen Ain't Easy 5-4 as well to reach the Finals.

Another example why fighting to just get into the Playoffs can pay off immensely.

So it will be The Baba Yaga or Ball Lives Matter wearing the 2021-2022 crown, and they are currently in a tight one 2 nights in, with 5 to go.

Also in the Consolation Bracket, (6) Cincinnati Sixers and (7) MotownPhilly are fighting to win the 2022 #1 Overall Draft Pick in our Rookie/FA draft before the start of next season.

Good luck to all teams left fighting for the title/#1 pick.

Meanwhile, for yet another year my squad will wear the title of the most appropriate team name.

Thanks,
Chris (Floppers)

Managers,

We have a new champion crowned in the RealGM Sixers Forum Dynasty League: The Baba Yaga!



TBY took down Ball Lives Matter in a narrow 5-4 Championship round led by Joel Embiid miraculously playing 4 games each of the last two weeks (they couldn't have rested him a game last week in the semi's? )

For the Consolation Bracket, we had Motown Philly victorious over the 2020-2021 champion Cincinnati Sixers. Motown Philly's win gives him the number one overall pick in the 2022 Rookie Draft!

Congrats again to The Baba Yaga and Motown Philly!





Thank you all for another competitive and exciting season of our Dynasty League! It's great to see some parity with a new champion and different teams making the Playoffs in 2022 compared to 2021.

Here are the final Playoff results:



I will be posting the upcoming Draft order soon so stay tuned! If you have any questions lmk.

Thanks again for playing! Hope to see everyone back in 2022-2023!
