0 Subject: RIHC 2012-13: Injury Slot Designations

Posted by: Guru
- [330592710] Sat, Oct 27, 2012, 23:37

This is the eighth year (wow!) we will be using the Injury Slot for the RIHC league, and I believe that some of the QLs may be using that rule as well.

Here are the RIHC rules:

Three bench slots are available to hold any player. Two additional bench slots will be enabled, but are restricted as “injury slots”, hereafter abbreviated as “IS”.

An NBA player shall be eligible to fill an IS if he is listed in any “informed” source as being injured more seriously than “day-to-day”. Examples of acceptable information sources include (but are not limited to):
RotoWire
RotoWorld
RotoTimes
ESPN
NBA.com
Newspaper stories (citing facts, not speculation).

Once a player appears in an NBA game, he is no longer eligible to fill an IS, even if a published source fails to remove his listing. When a player is no longer IS eligible, the team shall have a limited amount of time to remove that player from the IS, as defined below.

If a manager wishes to move a player into an IS but cannot find a confirming source, he may request that the Commissioner approve the designation. The Commissioner shall use his best judgment in making such a determination.

If any manager believes that another team has improperly moved a player into an IS, he may file a protest with the Commissioner. If any manager disagrees with a Commissioner ruling, he may request a league vote. Six votes shall be required to overturn any Commissioner ruling related to an IS.

Each Wednesday, the Commissioner (or his designee) shall review all rosters to assure that any filled injury slots are appropriate. In the event that an IS is improperly filled, the Commissioner will notify the manager of the violation via the email link at the Yahoo site. The notified manager will have 48 hours to correct the roster or to provide a satisfactory explanation. If a breach remains uncorrected 48 hours after notice, the Commissioner shall have the authority to drop a bench player in order to bring the roster into conformance. The player dropped will be based upon the Commissioner’s judgment as to the best interests of the impacted team.

The Commissioner shall have the latitude to extend the time for curing a breach if he knows that the manager is unreachable and/or unavailable to make the adjustment.

No player which is in an IS slot may be placed in a starting slot on any day unless the bench has been cleared of that injury slot, or unless another player is eligible to replace that player in the vacated IS. In the event of a violation, the Commissioner may elect to void any stats generated by improperly activated player.

No player may be picked up as a free agent and immediately placed in an IS. Free agent additions are only IS eligible 10 days after pickup, unless the player has appeared in an NBA game after the pickup and the IS eligibility occurred thereafter. The 10-day waiting period does not apply to players who a were added to the roster as part of the preseason draft.


This thread will serve as a central clearinghouse for IS-eligible players, to be used as follows:
  • Whenever a manager in any RIHC-related league decides to declare a player injured and eligible for an IS slot, they must first check this thread to see whether that player has already been declared as IS-eligible.
  • If that player has not yet been listed, then that manager must post a message declaring the player's status, and providing justification, with a link to a confirming source, if possible.
  • At that time, any member of any league may post a challenge to that declaration if they wish. If more than one challenge is submitted, then the RIHC Commissioners will post a decision.
  • If a player is persistently listed as day-to-day, that player may be placed on IS once he has missed five consecutive games.
  • If an IS declaration has been made for a player and has not been challenged, then any other manager with that player may accord that player IS status as well, without needing to post. In other words, only one (the first) manager needs to post that declaration.
  • When a player returns to action and is no longer eligible, someone (the original manager, a Commish, or any other manager) should post a courtesy note to that effect.
Commissioners will still need to perform a weekly review of their respective leagues to monitor compliance. If the Commissioner wishes, he may delegate this duty to another league member.

Dion Waiters has now missed 5 straight games with a sprained ankle (including tonight). The Rotoworld reports states:

Dion Waiters (ankle) will not play on Tuesday, as expected, and he's "unlikely" to travel with the Cavs' to Indiana for Wednesday's game.

From Rotoworld:

Bradley Beal won't play after testing out his wrist in pregame warmups Wednesday.
Beal participated in shootaround, but the Wizards are being cautious with the rookie guard. Wednesday will mark the fifth straight game he's missed, but at least Beal is making progress. Look for Garrett Temple to get the start against the Knicks.

Kirilenko has missed his last two games. Now this report from Rotoworld:


Andrei Kirilenko won't go on Wolves road trip

Coach Rick Adelman says Andrei Kirilenko (quad) will miss at least the next two games.
After a two-game road trip, the Wolves next play Wednesday against the Jazz. However, they have six days off after that game due to the All-Star break and it's hard to imagine the Wolves not giving Kirilenko the full time to heal. We'd call Kirilenko questionable at best for the Jazz game, but more than likely he'll sit until Feb. 20 against the Sixers.

Adelman expects Kirilenko to be out a while

Rick Adelman expects Andrei Kirilenko (calf) to be out for "a while."
"I don't know how long, but he'll be out for a while," he said. Kirilenko has already been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Lakers, and his availability moving forward is very much up in the air. "And that will really hurt us again because we're just so small offensively," Adelman added. Derrick Williams and Ricky Rubio will be asked to do even more for a short-handed Wolves team.

BrandonKnight out per rotoworld longer term:
X-rays taken on Brandon Knight's injured left ankle returned negative, but the injury is being called a "significant" ankle sprain.Knight looks like he'll be out weeks and not days, but we still don't know if his season is in doubt so owners will want to weigh their options when considering a drop. The Pistons have just two games in the last meaningful week of the season, but have a four-game week prior to that, for what it's worth

Bradley Beal misses 5th game(from rotoworld):
This will be the fifth straight Beal misses with the ailment. Garrett Temple will likely start for Beal but Martell Webster could see a big boost in value, especially if Trevor Ariza (knee) is unable to go. Price has been the primary backup to John Wall so Temple will likely assume some of his minutes as well.

Celtics GM Danny Ainge said Kevin Garnett does not have a sprained ankle.
Garnett's injury is being described as "inflammation of the ankle," and that's a bit nebulous considering the team is choosing to rest him for up to two weeks. Ainge said the time off will get Garnett "fresh," but it's still not clear exactly what Garnett's injury is and the Celtics aren't revealing anything beyond inflammation of the ankle. Regardless, Jeff Green figures to play major minutes as a member of the starting five while Garnett is out of the lineup. Mar 26 - 8:19 AM

Jameer Nelson out five games now per rotoworld:
Recommendation: Nelson has missed the team's last five games since injuring his ankle back on Mar. 29. Little information has been released regarding the injury, but given Orlando's place in the standings, the team certainly is not rushing him back. If Nelson does not play Wednesday against Milwaukee, look for Beno Udrih to get the start against his former team.
