That is true. All I'm saying is BaF is for our entertainment. When a season ending injury happens it takes away from that. We all want to see the teams we put countless hours into creating perform healthy. I'm not saying we should do away with them completely, because I understand it's a part of the sport. However, I do think we should have a little more leeway when it comes to BaF. I'm pretty sure there's an injury every single day. if the slider is at 60 I say we drop it to 50. That's all. I'll propose it and everyone will likely have an opportunity to vote I guess. If it doesn't pass then it doesn't.

I don't think the amount of injuries is bad. Obviously the season ending ones are killers. Not sure if the slider prevents longer term injuries. But the day to day stuff I feel is pretty realistic.

Coming from an real life fantasy owner of Kawhi/Embiid/Zion/Middelton :lol: :lol: :lol: ....the amount of injuries in the SIM is generally less than real life.

Yeah had 4th pick with Joker/Giannis/Tatum going 1-2-3.

Embiid is so good...puts up monster numbers but I think he has only played in 29 of the sixers 40 games. So already missed 11. I don't think the SIM does him like that.

Category league...so prior to this year luka's turnovers and FT shooting along with lower FG% along with no blocks and steals...embiid hits every category and he helps so much with FT shooting and gets a couple blocks and steals...only thing the stops embiid is the games he doesn't play :lol:

But I was contemplating it but Luka has had his best year of his career this year...

Basically Luka beats embiid at 3's and assists

embiid beats luka nearly at every other category.

Gotcha. Yea Luka would be my #1 pick all day which is why I asked. I simply love Embiid as a player. I'm quick to trade stars if they don't bring me wins, but he has survived trade deadlines for a reason. Top 5 when healthy imo and checks off so many boxes.

in the SIM with Luka's contract...and in real life sure....Luka all day.

Fantasy is strictly a numbers game though. Outside of Jokic...not sure there is a better statistical player in the sport then Embiid...only negative is how many games he will play every year.

Joker is quietly having a MVP season in BaF. Fool is in just about every leader category.

It's funny cause I follow all my players on thescore app. It'll notify me saying something like "Joel Embiid is questionable for tonight's matchup..." then he decides to play and drops a 40 piece. :lol:
