Build A Team Contest (2010’s) - SIGNUPS - *CLOSED* 

Post#1 » by Hawk Eye » Tue Jul 14, 2020 9:13 pm

Rules:

1. This is not a draft. Instead you will select any 8 players/seasons you want from the 2009-10 through 2018-19 season, which also means others can use the same players as you. Your goal is simply to put together the best possible 8 man team you can under the FGA restriction.

2. LeBron is off limits this game. I think this will create more disparity in the teams otherwise almost everyone would have LeBron.

3. Teams are allowed no more than ONE player who made multiple all-nba 1st teams or won an MVP.

4. Your team will be allowed a maximum of 88.0 FGA corresponding with the specific seasons chosen for each player. There is a 3 FGA minimum for each player.

5. Each of your players must play a minimum of 8 minutes in your rotations.

6. Each player you select must have played at least 50% of regular season games in the season they are being used

7. Once the game begins you will have two days to privately choose your 8 players and their seasons and PM them to me. You are blind to your opponents rosters until all of them are sent in. After everyone has sent their teams in, you will then publicly post your rosters and make your case for why your team is the greatest. You are not allowed to change your teams at this point, but you are allowed to change your rotations and minutes. Only the players and seasons are required when you originally send the team to me.

8. If you pick an identical 8 players to someone who has already sent in their team, one of the two players will by random selection be asked to change their team.

9. The winner of the game will be decided by rankings. The goal is to get your team a top-3 ranking.

1st place = gold
2nd place = silver
3rd place = bronze
———————————————
everyone else

Team Roster Page Rules:

You will be responsible for creating a roster page for your fantasy team. Here are the things that you will be required to include on your roster page:

. Players
. Rotations
. The most important of all, you must show the total FGA per player on your roster AND a total sum of each players FGA to display that it is under the required 88.0 FGA

-All of the above must be completed before rankings begin

Ah, this is something I can do. In.
The issue with per75 numbers;
36pts on 27 fga/9 fta in 36 mins, does this mean he'd keep up the efficiency to get 48pts on 36fga/12fta in 48 mins?
The answer; NO. He's human, not a linearly working machine.
Per75 is efficiency rate, not actual production.

For clarity - does rule number 3 mean in the entirety of their career or just in the 2010s?

I would suggest changing that rule to also include winning MVP, or you'll just get a bunch of Giannis teams like the last time.

In anyway.

In. I agree that we should do something about Giannis. Maybe only one player who ever reach first team
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Room for another player? What's the harm?
