our nba keeper league?
- Thread starter cranrab
- Start date
Sorry to answer so late Cran. That "keeper" list league never
came about because only 8 teams sent me their lists. There
was too much crying about it, so I just left it alone. An eight
team league is incredibly corny in head-to-head. Might have
been better as rotiserrie. I still have th elist and we could still
do it that way if you'd like. But time is short.
I'm game to try it this time around for next year though

This will be our best year. There is very tight competition
this time around. And there won't be any ghost teams
so we'll have to bring it every single week. I bought in
cats from other leagues that I ran in that always gave
alot of problems and now we're all here under one umbrella
It's like TOP GUN for fantasy basketball
Looking forward
to it myself....and getting back to the finals that you knocked
me out of last year
I just wish I had my 5 from last year....I had:
Richard Jefferson
Shawn Marion
Paul Pierce
Carlos Boozer
Chris Bosh
That's a hellafied five to start with....Everybody is young
and hungry and the oldest guy is 28

There should some really good games with you and him.
Also with Deaf and XFactor. They always go at it hard too.
Man, this league gonna be tight as fuck. I can't wait, lol

Re: keep things the way they are...
Yeah I think in the past two seasons, I'm 3-1 against Deaf... I own his team
But I wanted to know will whoever we draft this year be on our team for the long haul? (keeper league)
If so I may be looking at a dynasty of mediocrity, because I dont trust yahoo to generate my picks for me

Re: keep things the way they are...
my boy had to let yahoo pick his team in a fantasy baseball league, and he did OK most of the season... still, i know what you mean... i had to let yahoo make a few picks for me when i stepped away from the computer (in the nfl fantasy league) and i dropped them quick...
on another note, tell your boy JJ i'm expecting to see alot of good things from him with the blazers this season...

But Mvp Ballers Gonna Do The Nhl Thangy This Year.. No Season For Basketball.... So I Apologize About That But We Will Be Back Next Season....

So far, so good....
We could still go keepers this year if anybody wants to

Criteria is the same as it was before. You get to keep a certain amount
of players. Once the season is over, you submit a list to me and it won't
change.
And it won't be that easy to choose players. You may think you got it
sewn up, but I betcha the cat who kept Amare just knew he was in
the catbird's seat. You just never know. I'm in TWO keeper leagues
already, and in both of them, I kept Carlos Boozer from last year.....
Figuring that since he missed the second half of last season, he'd
be extra strong this year.....Joke's on me though
Anyway, you'd have to keep an even number of players so the draft
would fall correctly. So I would suggest 6 players. In my other league,
there's only 8 teams, so we are gonna keep 10 players each.....
The draft order would be worst to first in order. The champ picks last
and the worst picks first. You could do the draft offline if we kept a
full roster, but since we only keep six, the draft would be live, but
instead of random order like we always do, it would be a SELECTED
order (commish can do that in advance).....
You prerank your keeper picks as your top 5 picks. As long as EVERYBODY
does this, Yahoo will pick your players automatically. Of course there's
always ONE dickhead who won't prerank and end up with the top five
players ranked as his first five picks (I HATE this mofo). I then have to
change his picks manually. Which is a pain in the ass......
Really, there's no work for the manager to do except prerank...The bulk
of the work falls on the commish to make sure everybody's picks are
correct. But six primo picks won't guarantee you dominate any league
I did it twice this year and except for the NON preranker, it worked great
of players. Once the season is over, you submit a list to me and it won't
change.

It doesn't have to be some sort of unanimous vote for a keeper league.
The eight team keeper league I'm in had 16 teams last year, but only
8 teams submitted rosters (thanks for forgetting CrazyDeafDawg). I wasn't
even gonna bother with an eight team league (too small for me), but I
got a couple of requests, so I started it up and it's kind of cool. Eight teams
means you will have more of a fantasy lineup littered with studs, so it's
a small league but it's cool.....
I wouldn't do it with BGOL Ballas unless we had 16 participating managers
though. I think this season we finally got a serious league with fierce
competition and NO ghosts, and I'd like to keep it that way.
I'm pretty sure we could do it, but I wouldn't wanna do it unless all 16
teams are for this move....and submit a roster BEFORE the season ends
