Regardless of how it all ends up we can all agree it kicks rear end that I scored 2.33 points on Thursday

Jokic and Murray should both play, so looks like this will be who decides it all.   I'm still not certain on Grimes, Kennard, Hayes, and White, going to be waffling til tip-off. Also hell yeah Ingram, missed a ton of time but when he's playing he's awesome.

Just saw Jokic is out which really sucks for you ET, and it's anticlimactic as hell. Kinda want to sit Giannis so there's still an element of suspense in these late games.

IMO you still had the best season overall since you had the most PF even with these late injuries and DNP. Fantasy's weird.

It’s funny, looking at the stats, my team had a top 3 offense but the worst defense. I am the Kings. I also ended up with 2 of the top 5 players - Luka and Sabonis - but then there was a big drop between them and Jimmy B. I think that’s where I screwed up my draft.

Obv I'll send whichever player back to the squad that had em most of the season if someone intended to pick them back up as their keeper.

I don't know how/if this could be managed without it being a big pain in the rear end for an admin team that's already saddled w a bunch of manual poo poo but it'd be cool to have a keeper slot for someone you're willing to bet will make a big jump in the upcoming season. Call it a ... wait for it ... Sleeper Keeper  If you rank this year's players by average fantasy ppg, the 60th ranked player (Myles Turner) averaged 48.1 fantasy pts. In a twelve-team league, that puts us at the end of the 5th round. What if you could have the option of trading your sixth-round pick to keep someone who averaged <48 fppg this season that you're willing to bet will top that next season? I haven't put a ton of time into poking holes in this idea so I may be missing something, but it doesn't seem crazy impactful or unbalancing or whatever. I assume most of us would choose a keeper, so anyone who didn't want to do it would get a sort-of-"extra" pick right in the middle of the draft where there are still a ton of great players available. Last season's 6th round: Wendell Carter Josh Giddey Jalen Brunson Jusuf Nurkic Jakob Poeltl Keldon Johnson O.G. Anunoby Jalen Green Tobias Harris Tyrese Maxey Jordan Poole Jamal Murray Actually as I think about it, here's what would be pretty cool - when it's your turn in the 6th, you either keep your sleeper keeper, or if there's someone you love who's fallen a couple rounds, you can release your keeper and regain the 6th-round pick, and your sleeper would go back into the pool. I don't know how hard something like this would be to manage and really don't want to over-complicate poo poo, just trying to come up w ways to make this more of a dynasty-type league. Maybe move it down a few rounds: Jaden Ivey ranked 96th in avg fppg (41.1), which would put him at the end of the 8th round. Swap your 9th-rounder for someone who averaged <40 fppg? That pool would include every 2022-23 rookie besides Paolo and Ivey. Anyone who didn't have a qualifying player they liked could grab one before the draft. I dunno, thoughts welcome, but maybe we can find a way to add some (optional) roster consistency year-to-year. It's hard to see it really throwing anything out of whack, and it would be nice to add a little more continuity season to season, assuming most everyone's coming back next year. P.S. Now that the regular season's over, once I get a lil free time I'm gonna dump everything into a spreadsheet to figure out top bargains/busts and all that poo poo like I did a few months back rivetz fucked around with this message at 21:07 on Apr 10, 2023 |

That's a fun idea! Would a simple way to do it be that you can also use your keeper on a player who averages < 50 for a sixth round pick? I would just have to set it at two keepers and tell everyone that their second keeper can't be like LeBron and Giannis or something and if it is we will just have to clear the second keeper by hand. The good thing is there is just a button that clears all the non-keepers so it wouldn't be that much work. If everyone agrees to it we could even do it this season maybe.

That's a cool idea, sort of like putting specific-round tenders on RFAs in the NFL. The email Draft rules ao I'm all for expanding it and adding near wrinkles to allow for more gambles and The Deal Zone.

kalensc posted:I got Worst NetPoints locked in baby I wonder who had most waiver moves in our season. In the Yahoo league I played, one guy had 63 moves, and the next closest was around 20. That one dude had way too much free time. And it didn't help him in the final

Just quickly scrolling through the transaction logs: Balrogs Balls - around 60 moves since the draft Saruman Shoulda Hooped - around 120 moves Red Panda at the 5 - around 140 moves Obviously I need to step up my game next season!

Red Rox posted:Just quickly scrolling through the transaction logs: In my hockey fantasy pools I typically ended up making 5x the median number of transactions. I know I'm subpar at drafting because I don't follow the leagues very closely, so I make up the difference with active adds/drops. Sorting and comparing to find the thinnest of edges is the appeal of fantasy imo. It's Be A GM mode except I don't have to pay $80 for the latest iteration from EA or whoever.

Call it a ... wait for it ... Sleeper Keeper So yeah I've been thinking about this and think it would be really cool to do this (either be able to pick a veteran for a 6th pick at <48 or a rookie for a 9th, one or the other). The only issues I can think of is that it is very difficult to skip or unskip picks once a draft starts. A work around is we can leave the people with these keepers with those picks and I can just commish draft them retired players (who they can then cut) when it's their turn, or they can message me and say they want to let go of their keeper and draft someone else. It would require paying attention though.

Bonjour mes amis, I'm sorting out last year's results to use the consolation bracket outcomes and give out the "bonus ping pong balls" for our version of the draft lottery, etc. How many GMs are returning from 2022-23? And were there any from 2021-22 who took a year off but may want to re-join this season? (Second question is pretty much addressed to Rick.) P.S. Sorry our batches of boreal blazes blighted your skies this summer.

So matching Fleaflicker nicks with SA usernames, I have these 8 as returning: kalensc / kalensc Poop-dog / Ghost Dog Scooter McTiny / scootermctiny Ric_k / Rick Chronicles / Chronicles duutchy / Dutchy BananaBreakfast / DeimosRising maestrosa / The Maestro And these 4 we're hoping will check in soon: rivetz / rivetz erez / EmotionlessThug RedRox / Red Rox CartMountain / CartMountain * * - CM last posted on SA in early January, and last checked into Fleaflicker in early February. He mentioned in April 2022 that he was often struggling to juggle fantasy line-up setting with his work responsibilities and recently becoming a father for the first time. So hopefully his absence these past 6 months was just him choosing to put his free time towards things other than fantasy basketball. And it seems likely we'll need to recruit a new GM, unless only 10 decide to re-up.
