I've lost matchups in H2H were my team was significantly better than the opposition, but a combination of short term bad luck events made me lose the matchup.

Durant + Lebron + Harden could lose against Aldridge + Wall + Melo in H2H, but that would NEVER happen in ROTO


This x1000

I came second in my H2H league last season.. by losing in the finals to a team who started Jermaine O'Neal, Andray Blatche and Kyle O'Quinn, and who's best player was Nikola Vucevic.... whilst I had Anthony Davis, Goran Dragic, Al Jefferson, Mike Conley, and Al Jefferson.

What a joke


Clearly you lost because you were cheating by trying to roster Al Jefferson twice :lol:

But in all seriousness, that's unfortunate but I also have doubts about the accuracy of this. I'm guessing he made a lot of acquisitions in the finals to get more games played because there is no reason for JO to be rostered and Kyle OQuinn had a couple decent games at the end and that's it. Vucevic as the best player? What happened to his top 3-4 picks then?

There's clearly more to both teams than you really put in the post but really that kind of thing happens. Warriors upset the Mavericks in the playoffs. Spurs crushed the Heat. Wizards made the playoffs but the Suns didn't. Things happen, it's part of the game. And it's also part of the strategy of fantasy. It's not just a matter of whoever drafts the best players win. Anyone who plays fantasy should know that.


It was a 16 team h2h league. His three beat players were Vucevic, Ariza and Rubio.. Then a bunch of mediocre players and scrubs. I can show you the team sheet if you like. I was shocked, and so were others because I thought I clearly had a better team.

D-League Announcement

In approximately 2 hours, I will be sending an invite link to BringinDaRuckus. There is only one spot remaining in the Yahoo league (the invite link will no longer work after the next person is in), so once I send the link the first of BDR or Sun Scorched to join Yahoo will get the last spot. Once that 12th person is in, the league will be finalized and the draft order set!

Lol! I guess first come, first served wasn't really the right term to use there. First-of-the-two-with-invite-links, first served? Sorry :D

Sixth, I can deal with that. I think I traded up for six last year as well. Hell, might even make the same pick again.

I'm setting the draft order in Yahoo and realized I have a couple teams where I'm not 100% sure which user has the team name and would rather not go poking back through last year's thread while at work. Can you help me out if there's a question mark next to your name? Thanks!

1. wheezy - ?
2. Qwigglez - Gym Leader
3. 1UPZ - ?
4. Never Fear 33 Is Here - NeverFear33IsHere
5. Superhuman - Flaming Dragon
6. Maystack - Gimme the fife
7. Ulquiorra - Ulquiorra
8. b-ball forever - b-ball forever
9. Safety Pickle - ?
10. SunZel - SunZel
11. Miklo - Mik Krzyzewski
12. BringinDaRuckus - BringinDaRuckus

If anybody with a higher spot than me (1-7 range) wants to trade 1st and 2nd round draft picks, lemme know.

I have the 8th pick

Might have to take you up on that actually, or is 6th pick not a big enough leap?
