PG: Kemba Walker
SG: James Harden
G: D'Angelo Russell
SF: Jimmy Butler
PF: Pau Gasol
F: Jabari Parker
C: Nikola Jokic
C: Steven Adams
UT: Aaron Gordon
UT: Demarre Carroll

B: Marvin Williams

B: Tony Parker

Never played this format before so I'm kinda learning on the fly, ended up with a pretty balanced team. Unsure about the Jokic/Gordon picks but pretty happy otherwise.

At least Payton isn't broken already

Is the scoring purely net totals or per game averages? For example in week 1 am I better off playing Tony Parker, who's playing 4 games, over Carroll who's playing 2?

Net totals for the week for each stat. You shuffle your lineup daily and play as many players as you can each day, so you'd be playing Parker and Carroll for all their games. If you have over 10 guys playing in a single day that's when you have to decide who to play based which stats you need against your opponent.

Oh OK, so if you have an injury you pretty much have to play one short or cut them. That sucks.

Yeah in h2h it's much more of a burden to carry injured guys than in roto. It's an even playing field though and we'll all get injured guys throughout the year. I didn't come up with the format.

Pretty much cant carry a long term injury.
It all evens out in the end. Some weeks youl come up against players who have 3 or 4 less games than you.

Are the teams uploaded yet?

[deeman87]

Good work lads. I'll enter the draft details this evening sometime and aim to kickoff the league around 8-9pm

 

[JT_the_Man]

Alright whole team on the trading block have a crack

Passing on Davis probably looks pretty silly right now but you just know he'll miss 15-20 games as always

 

[DangerSloane]

I dont know how, but ive ended up with the worst team in fantasy history.

[Bostonian]

My team is dominant, just saying.

Not much interaction on the trade front

 

[Bostonian]

The season has just started, people just drafted their teams.

Nobody will have much idea yet what their strengths and weaknesses are for a few rounds yet.

 

[Checkered]

Or they would have needs to fill if they drafted on a best available basis and found themselves short in a few spots. Or they would have obvious strengths and weaknesses they drafted to which they want to improve upon. Or have targets they might be trying to package players for. Or they're trying to get in early with the buy low/sell high which doesn't depend on the time of season.

Goes both ways and there's more than one reason to try and trade I'm just trying to drum up a few proposals.
