Whoops. Point still stands.

When we pick our team lineup when it starts, is it only for that day, or do you pick for a week.

How does the points system work.

When we pick our team lineup when it starts, is it only for that day, or do you pick for a week.

How does the points system work.

It's only for that day. So your lineup will probably have to change daily since there will be days when some of your players have games and some don't. If a player is on your bench, any stats that they accumulate won't count towards your total.

You can adjust your rosters (for each day) in advance so that you don't have to log on every day to update your daily roster.

Our league is a Head to Head one so each week, you'll have a different opponent.

Scoring system works via who wins in each statistical category. Our league has 12 stat cat's.

I'll give you an example. In Week 1 you're versing Macquarie Mauraders. Say over the week period, your team accumulates more blocks than his. That means that you win that category. Same thing applies to the other 11 cat's. Whoever of the two of you wins more, out of the total 12 categories in that week, wins the overall matchup.

The total amounts of categories that you've won and lost (in each of your head to head matchups through the season) accumulate over the entire season and will give you your overall win-loss-draw record.

Not sure if I made it clear enough. Hope it helps.

Thanks Ridders.

So i gather you wont really want any injured or under preforming players in your squad because your will need to use everyone at different times during the week.

Yeah there's no point in having injured player's in your starting lineup. Although if for a certain day, you have a roster spot available anyway, then there's no real harm in it.

There will be some days (such as when every NBA team is playing on a given day) when you'll have more players playing games than available roster spots.

Another example. I checked your lineups and on Wed, November 3rd, 13 of your 14 players have games that day. However you only have 10 roster spots available (8 starters + 2 utilities). In a situation like that, you're going to have to make a decision on which players you want to sit out.

 

[McLovin]

I'd like to thank Boozer for being a clumsy bitch...

 

[Ridders]

Haha. Wk 1 should be a layup for team Darko.

Hey McLovin. This is kinda old news, but how did you beat me in our first round playoff matchup last year? Was checking the results from 2009 and our quaterfinal tie ended 6-6. What was the tie-breaker?

I'll field this one McLovin.


In the event that a playoff game ends in a tie, the deadlock is broken using the following system:

1. Winning percentage against this opponent during the regular season.
2. Playoff seed.

Logic seems sound. Iirc, McLovin did pump me 12-0 in one of our matchups last season.

Bit of revenge coming in Wk 1 perhaps..

 

[McLovin]

Negative on the revenge imo...Not with the sleeping beast, Biedrins aka mr.twentytwenty, in my ranks...

 

[Ridders]

Lol what's twentytwenty. His likely Min's/FT%?

Ouch, that's nudie run material. That is more humiliating than not sinking a ball in a game of pool. Had you not set your team you would have at least won TO's, Dream Shakers-style.

 

[McLovin]

Yeah...then the diabolical collapse began. I went from winning 75% of games to winning about 25%...

That's a pretty well rounded team. No real weakness'. Looks like your team can be competitive in every cat.

Only problem I'd see, since it's a roto league, is someone like Okur. Guess it depends on how long he's out for. When did you draft him?

 

[Ridders]

I'm not making a guarantee, but I think I've got my first round matchup locked up. Just like the feel of my team.

I think your 12 maybe 13 trades away from getting your team right

 

[McLovin]

I've not lost an opening round matchup in 20 years...
