I know there are some of us that do play fantasy basketball and there are some that see it as a complete waste of time. Either way, I just checked the rankings by the "Fantasy Experts" over on espn.com and to my surprise... the Sixers have eight players in the Top 190.

#13: Elton Brand
#23: Andre Iguodala
#53: Andre Miller
#81: Samuel Dalembert
#110: Thaddeus Young
#129: Lou Williams
#174: Donyell Marshall
#189: Theo Ratliff

Should we expect Marshall to actually play this year??? I was of the belief that he'd ride the pine but I guess the fantasy guys believe he's worth a late round pick in case he does play and put up decent numbers.

Not that I am going to be the one to set it up... but is there interest in another 76ers Board Fantasy Basketball League??

I'd do one. I have never done an espn league though and, judging by those rankings, it appears to be much different than yahoo.

Yahoo...
Brand - 7
Iguodala - 27
Miller/Sammy - bubble of the top 50, so 51-90ish.

I'd love to do another one. Who set up the one last year?

I take it they're not using TOs and that's BS.

It was either Sixers_610 or CinciSixersFan. I forget who.

I'd rather play roto though

I would def. be down to play in a RealGM Sixers Board League...I don't comment much but I read the board pretty often...I've been pretty loyal to Yahoo for fantasy sports, but this year I did one NFL on Espn...I would be down for either Yahoo or ESPN

I'm in. I dont comment much, but when i do, I try to be as insightful as possible...also I read the sixers forum every single day

....and like 5 times a day. that would be 35 times a week.

Now for the million dollar question. Who's gonna start the league?

Post #16 » by **Stanford** » Fri Sep 12, 2008 11:43 am

Yahoo! isn't open yet for basketball.

jmon · Post #17 » by **jmon** » Fri Sep 12, 2008 1:05 pm

I vote stanford to make it. Should put up a poll(s) asking people whether they want yahoo/espn or head to head/roto, 10/12/14/16 teams, etc.

Post #18 » by **Stanford** » Fri Sep 12, 2008 1:22 pm

Yeah, I can make it, that's no big deal.

I'd like a 12-14 team, 9 cat roto league.

Everyone say what they'd like to play and I'll total it up.

As I said earlier, i'm in.

Post #20 » by **tk76** » Fri Sep 12, 2008 1:28 pm

9 cat roto sounds good to me. If there are more than 14 teams there should be two leagues.
