What ticks you off the most in FB?

What ticks you off the most in terms of your players production in fantasy basketball?

I can't stand when a player gets fouled to shoot a freethrow and then splits the pair and never goes back to the line leaving the end of the day FT% at 50%.....

When a player gets in early foul trouble and plays like 10 minutes....

Discuss!

When a team is totally killing another team and the stars are on the bench picking up splinters instead of digits!

Only one thing:Teams resting their best players during fantasy playoffs.

Well, actually, FT% is based on cumulative makes vs. attempts, not just % on a day. At least, that's the way it's been in every league I've played in.

What pisses me off about Fantasy Hoops is other managers, particularly the ones who forget to sub-in their players, and the ones who are too cautious to make trades. The game itself is pure and sublime! Except for the players resting during the fantasy playoffs, thing.

i'm definitely one of the managers that rarely trade. All of my players i see through rose colored glasses, so i was think i am getting the raw end of a deal.

Thing i hate are people that give up before the last few weeks of the season. Can really effect a roto league when the bottom 3-4 players just stop updating their roster, and they are full of injuries. So the distribution of points are skewed.

From a day-to-day basis.... foul trouble limiting minutes. You look at the box score and see 3 mins in first half from your guy, and then you see 3 pf. that's what grinds my gears.

When coaches become D*cks and start benching their star players to set whatever example they want to set or what ever point the're trying to make.

Reading am injury report that says Brandon Roy isn't playing and then he does and you've benched him. Or not realizing that Mike Dunleavy has a serious **** knee problem until he's missed the first two games. maybe I 'll make a Dunleavy thread . . .

My biggest pet peeve is the not setting/updating the rosters. Theres a guy in my one league that is doing like nothing, so its basically a bye to play him. That is until i play him when he will probably snap out of it and his excellent roster will beat me.
