Fantasy Basketball 

Post#1 » by The Real Dalic » Wed Aug 19, 2015 6:18 am

I know the season is still a little more than a month away. . . But, I just wanted to know if anyone here will be starting a fantasy basketball league.

I've only been a part of one which was last year and won the championship. But, it was easy due to inactivity and people not caring as much because they don't care about basketball as much as we do. I thought it would be kinda fun to play with my fellow Magic fans!

So, is anyone gonna start one this season?

I did it on ESPN and it was fun and very simple. Would really like to do it again. I'd even make the league myself if I knew enough people were interested. Just never made one before.

Sure I'm in, let me win the regular season only to lose in the first round of the Playoffs on the last play of the last game on Sunday, on a completely unnecessary Steph Curry TO....

I guess people are interested. I'll see if I can set it up soon if it's not too early to set up. I have 3 other friends that are also interested. I would like to have 30 players (if that's even possible). If not, I would like no less than 12 and it seems we're pretty much there.

I had a rough season last year, but will participate again, it is a tradition after all.

I was in bottom 4 (if not last) in A league, so B league this year, beware.

Unless not all of the A leaguers will be back, in which case I might sneak in there again?

There should be at least 2 leagues on this board. Being I was in the playoffs the last 2 years, I am shooting for the ship this year. Count me in as many leagues as needed.

I've done leagues before. My issue is the micro managing of the rosters daily. Football is once a week, no problem. If there is a once a week, figure out which players play the most that week balanced with their production level (like Lebron for 2 games versus Harris for 3 or whatever) and I'd be interested.

I'm planning on GM'ing a league or two, but i'm going to be very selective on who I let join because I prefer very active and competitive leagues.

So to those that aren't already in the A-B leagues, or if you're in one already and want to join another, let me know. I won the A league in 11-12 and 12-13, and B league in 10-11 8-).

This is what I would like to know because I'd rather join one than start one myself lol.

Keen again for A league. Can't believe I lost at the final hurdle. Always fun though.

Do we do Yahoo or ESPN? If it's Yahoo, I'm in.
