NBA Keeper League - Yahoo

[Dr. Dinger]

Thanks for sending out the email. I was considering doing that, but the sign-up email addresses are mostly Yahoo accounts that I suspect our owners only use for fantasy leagues and never actually check the inboxes. Can't hurt to send it, though.

Mine is set up to be automatically forwarded to a folder in my primary email, with a special notification sound to let me know I got something fantasy related. Doesn't everybody do this?

[Abomination]

I assume this means players won't be going on waivers, so we can also move injured players to the IL and pick up replacements at the same time tonight?

[Dr. Dinger]

Correct, no waivers, no roster locks. If any transactions is timestamped before 7:00, I will reverse it.

Ruhspect to FTD who was not f***ing around at all on that 7 pm starting gun. Sniped me on Beverly who I was going for second.

I wasn't expecting that many 7 PM adds holy crap. This is going to be a great active league.

[Abomination]

No one jumped the gun! Good job guys!

[Orgfiller]

I f***ed myself because I ended up having to drive exactly at 7 pm. Lost out on Ibaka and Millspa ugh. Made the passenger pick up the rest lol.

Very fitting that Abom would own Markelle Fultz, the Mark Appel of the NBA.

[BTS]

There are 4 players on my roster that I had heard of a few weeks ago.

The fact that Orlando is going to pay him $12m next year shows they have legit hope. I agree that he’ll prob be a bust though

[Dr. Dinger]

Hes got the yips and mysterious injuries. Classic abom profile!

I'll be shocked if he's still on my team opening day, but figured I may as well get a look in the preseason (if he's healthy enough to play).

[Abomination]

Remember to set your lineups, everyone!

Thanks for that. Also reminder that some guys will be injured to start the season so be sure to pick up replacements while they're out.

Is this what I can expect from Fred VanVleet going forward?

Yeah pretty much.

I know we're only one day in, but I feel like I'm going to like fantasy basketball more than fantasy hockey. There's a much bigger analytical component, and players have meaningful events very frequently, which is fun.

I agree - I feel like roster composition is a lot more strategic too.

 

Really looking forward to this league and seeing if my team strategy pans out.

[BTS]

BTW I just set max weekly adds at 5. I'm assuming the lack of limit was just an omission.

[Dr. Dinger]

Yeah that was intended to just be uncapped during the draft. Thx.

Anyone got a C to spare? Aldridge is my only one. I have plenty of guards, not looking for a main piece, just a secondary C.

There's a couple of non-awful options in free agency honestly. You don't need to have studs everywhere including your bench and Aldridge is already a good 1A option.

Good call bawd. Grabbed Poeltltltl

Nice, I considered adding him earlier as I was a big fan of his on the Raptors, but went with Bertans as he provides 3PT efficiency and plays on a bad Wizards team so he should get PT.

Wanna trade Curry?

[Boxcar]

Wanna trade Curry?

 

No? And honestly, I'd rather get kicked in the balls than enter into a prolonged trade negotiation with you, no offense.

A quick word about draft order for next year. The bottom 6 (non-playoff) teams will all be in the lottery with equal odds. Picks 7-12 will be in reverse order of final playoff standings (ie champion will pick 12th). This will not be a snake draft and pick order is in effect each round. Picks are not tradable. A reminder that there will be 6 keepers per team.

Whoever owns Drummond is getting absurd production. He just had his third 20-20 game of the season already, with a stat line of 25/20/6 with 5 blocks and 3 steals.
