7th Place in FIBA Worlds... 7 wins... and of course 7 years of Moos Droo basketball it's your commish spacejung posting to you from deepest Srbijan free space. Welcome back to all 12 teams!

VARIANT RULES

RULE 1 - Positions G, G, SG, SF, PF, F, F, C, Util, Util, Util, BN, BN, BN, BN
The rosters and benches are extremely deep, so there will not be a lot of great talent on the wire - considering that, I've geared the starting positions to eliminate positional scarcity as much as possible. I based my math on historical Yahoo rankings and 2018's Yahoo positions. I'm mitigating these findings by installing three Guard spots with no SG required and an extra PF spot instead of the traditional extra C spot.

RULE 2 - Continuous Rolling Waiver System (Updates Mon, Fri Morning)
I like this system in NFL Fantasy and it works just as well in NBA. I was reluctant at first to sacrifice the 'art of the lightning fast injury pickup' but this hopefully makes it so members don't have to spend so much free time thinking about fantasy and reading alerts. It also discourages streaming. If you're anything like me you will let fantasy games win over your social life occasionally and so I want to remove the temptation as much as possible. The waiver claims will go into effect twice a week, once on Mondays at the start of the week and once on Fridays, permitting players to make adjustments heading into weekend games if they deem it necessary.

RULE 3 - Trade Take-Backs 2-Day Evaluation Period
The purpose of this rule is to encourage trade speculation but support fair trades. I will never unilaterally veto a trade unless I am somehow able to determine that its purpose is to disrupt the balance of the game on purpose. If both managers want to do the trade, they can do it. Even if it makes people mad. However, I need to provide some outlet for the persons who get mad about trades, because in many cases their complaints have merit. So here's the deal: If you can convince either side of a trade that they are making a bad trade, and they wish to cancel it, they can. I leave veto or 'take-back' power in the hands of the individuals making the trade. Another consequence of this rule is its implications towards player injuries that happen during the trade review period. If the injury happens after the trade has been accepted and the review period has already started, you're stuck with it - both sides lose their veto right. If the injury happened before the trade was accepted, both sides have the right to veto. I am aware that this logic is somewhat circuitous but I've thought it through and to me it's the best way to prevent common abuses.

At this point it's just a reminder for next year... I really think we should add 1 IR spot for stashes, I know this could hinder the activity if the waiver wire but I think it's a positive.

"Tell that to Zod's snapped neck!"

there’s not a real Fantasy Basketball thread so I’ll ask you folks:

Guy in my league offered me his Otto Porter for my Robert Covington. I didn’t do anything because that’s a bad deal but he sent me a second offer for Porter, this time asking for Gary Harris. Do I pull the trigger or is Porter broken?

spacejung
Feb 8, 2004
I would move harris for porter in an instant, your counterpart sounds desperate so if you really wanna be a d bag maybe work in another minor upgrade 2 for 2 if you're feeling greedy

Open reminder to a couple of you that the yahoo fantasy app has a nice shiny "set all lineups for the week" button which is better than nothing, but you may need to go through and manually start Russell Westbrook over Tony Snell on Wednesday because the tool does not prioritize by rank or anything :siren:

Anyone want to trade for Blake Griffin? As an incentive for the trade I’ll even throw in rights to the greatest fantasy basketball team name ever.
