0 Subject: NBA AllStar League

Posted by: Mr. Nice Guy
- Donor [421124113] Thu, Aug 15, 2002, 15:50

I was considering setting up an NBA "All Star" League with 5 managers. All teams would be stud loaded and I think it would be very interesting. If you are interested, please post here. The next 4 people that post will be involved. It would be nice if we could draft fast if at all possible, so preferably people that are on a lot. THANK YOU! (If you happen to be the 6th person but are still interested in a league like this, I suggest starting a new league.)

I'll Join up, but wouldnt it be better to actually test fantasy skill and have like a 24 man starting roster, like 3 pg 3 sg 4 g 3 sf 3 pf 4 f 4 C. I mean thats the way to test fantasy skill.

      Fri, Aug 16, 2002, 17:04
True, but the main reason is that with a very deep league (which this is), you need players who you know will play 82. You know Shaq will rest, and losing Shaq for the (approx.) 25th rated Center is a huge gap. That doesn't mean, ofcourse, that if he's there with the 7th pick, I'm not gonna take him. :)

Youngbuck, what I did is take like 5 highlighters, print out every single player list ESPN had, then took an extended porcelain cruise and went through each list and put down my expected draft period (1-2,3-4,5-6,7-8,8+) for a bunch of players. While this may not be exactly what you're looking for, its a start. Just go with your intuition.

Heh, true... (and their injury concerns are about the same)

btw beebop, to get the bold you use <> not [] (and the end bold is < />) [Interesting spacing required. In text, left bracket, backslash {the /}, B, right bracket. No spaces needed.]. Just insert the B in between the 2 <> and you'll be good to go.

beebop, I'm pretty sure we're using the Yahoo player positions, whatever they are... so I'd go by those until further notice [although I'm violating that as I'm using ESPN, but I figure any discrepancies I'll be able to deal with in later rounds. 28 players does tend to give one some flexibility :)]

as far as positions go, Dirk is MVP. he plays SF PF F C for Yahoo. MJ played SG G SF F, i think Tmac does that Pierce and carter may as well

YB, even if Gary comes back next year, one could say that Brent Barry will be a vital part of any team because of his 3s, fg%, ft%, and pts. Heck he even is decent in rebounding, assists, and steals.

I say my FG% will def. be a loser if we had only 5 guys on are squads, as u all know, WE DON'T. Youngbuck has a very balanced team and if the draft ended now would win, my next pick may put me over the edge, not a very common guy but very good, hope villica doesnt snag him

beebop, Cleveland or Denver will have the best statistical shot at Lebron, but since the NBA is fixed, he can end up in a Bigger City, And u dont have the worst team because Terry is very productive, C are very thin so I dont know where 4 C's are gonna come from, Garnett and Duncan are = in my book when it comes to yahoo, Marion and Barry i dont really like but with 2 picks coming up MNG can improve alot

8.3 Jamal Mashburn

Another injury pick... although beetski that Ratliff pick seems a bit sketchy, I'm hoping that my 2nd choice falls to the next round.

This will be his breakout year, I assure you. Looks like my center position is pretty well covered. Wallace, Kandi, and JermO. :)
