Let's try to fill up goons first, if the time comes and we don't fill up she can join of course

I’ve also got 3-5 people that were left out of another league that can join if it comes down to filling out the roster.

i'm still really annoyed at whoever sniped Kyle Kuzma from me, even though I totally deserved it for making too big a deal about it.

i will get my revenge, somehow.

Free work league (8 team, 9 cat h2h), using this year as a test run to see if we want to get competitive next season for $. Almost everyone autodrafted so I just went by the rankings on the basketball monster site, had the 8th pick.

(8) Kawhi Leonard, (9) Chris Paul, (24) Myles Turner, (25) Joel Embiid, (40) Otto Porter, (41) Nikola Vucevic, (56) Danilo Gallinari, (57) Gary Harris, (72) Aaron Gordon, (73) Trevor Ariza, (88) Josh Richardson, (89) Seth Curry, (104) Dewayne Dedmon

How did I do?

Got roped into a roto points league last minute. Haven't played fantasy basketball in about 6 years (and have never done roto) so I'm in need of some help. Can anybody recommend some draft strategies based on the point breakdown and positions? Not sure at all if these are standard.

Field Goals Made (FGM): 1
Free Throws Attempted (FTA): .5
Free Throws Made (FTM): 1
3-point Shots Made (3PTM): 2
Points Scored (PTS): 1
Total Rebounds (REB): 1.2
Assists (AST): 1.5
Steals (ST): 3
Blocked Shots (BLK): 3
Turnovers (TO): -1

I think you can find value by taking players that suck at free throws but get hacked a lot since even a missed free throw is worth points.

Guys like Harden obviously go up in value as well.

I haven't played in forever so I honestly couldn't tell you if it's good or not :v:

But at first glance I thought to myself that Harden is probably the best player so good job for getting him. Curry might end up higher since a 3 is worth double what a 2 is (1 for FGM, 2 for 3PM, 3 for points vs 1 for FGM and 2 for points) but Harden makes a bunch of those as well so hopefully it's enough that his other stats more than make up the difference.

Actually looking at it you don't have much three point shooting though so that might end up hurting you.

I usually don't play roto OR points leagues though so I might be missing something.

Settings are 12 teams H2H 9 cat with FG%, 3P%, FT%, Points, Assists, Rebounds, Steals, Blocks, and Turnovers. I kinda want to do a 10th cat for double doubles but I'll leave that up to a vote.

Draft is set for Tuesday, October 17th at 9:30 pm EDT. That can also be up to a vote as we get more people in.

Still need 8 more people by tomorrow for this or we'll have to move the draft/axe the league

How early is too early to draft Ben Simmons? I haven't played fantasy basketball in a decade. League scoring is head to head weekly match-ups out of 8 categories.12 teams and I was thinking late 3rd/early 4th for Simmons

Looks like the questions of 3pt% for 3pt made as a scoring category came up. I'd prefer 3pt made. I'm also wondering if we should change the season to be 21 weeks instead of 23 weeks. I feel like the playoffs always become a total random crapshoot with the number of players that get shutdown the last 2 weeks.

Earliest I can do is weeks 21 through 23 as the playoffs with 8 teams in, I can change that to 6 if we want to reward byes.

I initially had it to 3 points made then changed it to percent to keep certain guys from being auto wins for that category but ill change it back for now.
