Fantasy Leagues Discussion - Currently Dynasty Future Drafts

[Phystic]

So, using Yahoo Stats Forecast for each team, here is what the final score for D-League would look like if all projections were true (take that for what it´s worth).



Congrats on those who drafted well. Let´s see how close to that we really are at the end of the season.

Wow, not only am I #1 but by a large margin.

I'm sure I will finish in the bottom three ha

I'm guessing it's what players got last year or probably moreso what yahoo thinks, but if you picked guys you expect to outperform what yahoo thinks, you will do ok.

If this got posted for premier, I expect to be near the bottom, and maybe my team sucks because I drafted a few guys who were in lesser roles or did bad last year, but I obviously expect them to be better, so it will be interesting.

[MrMiyagi]

Is there a similar forecast ranking on ESPN (for the CBA)?

Here's premier. I think I did it right, but it's pretty clearly biased both towards last year's stats and how many players are on your roster (I got 2nd most - 12 points - for assists after picking up Ish... Clearly not gonna happen). So I don't think it's taking GP into account, although I could be wrong.

TASTIC, the fantasy master who writes about it projected last. But he does more advanced research. Wrong or right? I guess we will see. I don't fare so well either.

I don't really understand those projections, but i'll take 3rd any day. Especially since I felt like I reached on a couple of guys early on, but then again a I felt like a couple of guys fell to me also so I guess theres that.

BTW, gotta say that this years draft was one of the funnest, and most competitive I've ever been a part of. Seriously, there are a lot of different rosters and it seems like everyone has a unique strategy. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out, Cheers!

Also, if anyone is looking to swap a big man for a PG, hit me up.

I picked a bunch of guys with either down seasons or guys who didn't play a lot last season like Beal, Eric Gordon and Biyombo, so if they play like they did during last year's regular season, my projection is probably about right, but if any or all of them play better, I likely end up better.

I don't know. There was a really interesting option that ranked drafts and stuff in the h2h league last year so I will check and see what I find.

Ha, last by a lot too!

If I'm last I'll take my demotion graciously, can't win every time.

Will be very surprised if I'm last though - banking on big seasons from Turner, RAnderson, Frazier (early at least). Wall and PG both projected really high, 6 and 9 respectively. Jokic needs to do what I think he can do, which is 13pts 9reb 3.5ast 1.2stl 0.9blk 0.8x3pt and 52/80 splits. A couple of wildcards in TJ Warren and Terrence Jones don't project too well either, so we'll see.

I can't figure out why Biyombo is O but it won't let me move to IR. To move to IR, is all I need to do is click on BN next to his name and IR spot should appear or is there something else you have to do to move a player to IR?

The player has to be labeled as "INJ" in order to put them in the IR spot. To get a INJ label in yahoo the player has to be projected to be out at least 7 days. However, yahoo sucks at keeping up with this... believe me, i've been waiting for them to change Bayless from GTD to INJ since last Thursday. Dude might miss some of the regular season but he is still considered GTD... go figure.

Are you using ESPN or Yahoo? in ESPN there is an option above your team name that says 'manage IR' and click that and you should be able to move him

ESPN, so I know how everything works there.

Did you find the Manage IR, were you able to move him to the IR that way?

Oh, no, I am in yahoo for premier, but ESPN for a few football leagues, so I know how to manage IR for that, and it sounds like it's the same.

Ya, I know this won't be anywhere NEAR accurate, but still nice to see ha. I expect Schroder and Kanter to take steps forward. Other than that not sure I have anyone that I could logically see as improving on the past season

[Kobe>Jordan>God]

Picking Dennis Schroder ahead of D'Angelo Russell is looking like a mistake
