Alright i know some of us are playing fantasy football with the NFL, so now im wondering if you guys wanna get into some fantasy Bball. NBA starts on Oct 31st so if anyone wants me to get a league up and going give me a holler if not then ill go solo.

I go through Virtual General Manager at www.nba.com its pretty basic you start with 100 points and you pick 5 players one at each position, Point guard, shooting guard, small forward, power forward and Centre. Each player in the NBA is worth a different amount of points and that will vary on how well they perform during the year.

Its scored like this, say for instance Shaq scores 22 points, 12 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks, 1 steal, 4 turnovers and he shoots 6 out of 9 from the free throw line and 8 of 14 from the field. Ok.

You add the positives like points(22) assists(2) rebounds(12) blocks(2) and steals(1) which makes 39.

Then you add the negatives like turnovers(4) missed foul shots(3) and missed shots from the field(6) which makes 13.

Then you take away the negatives(13) from the positives(39) and you get 26.

So Shaq scored 26 VGM points for that game.

Every player on your team is scored that way and your coach gets 5 points for when his team wins and 0 points for when they lose.

So thats how its played, people with fantasy gaming experience should have no problems and its easier to get than the Fantasy NFL so if you guys are up for it tell me but be quick cos the NBA season kicks off in like 10 days or so.

Alright for those who want to play just go to www.nba.com register and then create a team. Then when you wanna put it into a league search for this league - bigfooty.

It will be a private league so you'll need a password which will be aussierules ok.


Cmon ppl get your teams in i need some competion. Arch come into my world man you kicking my ass at NFL but come to the NBA and see if you take me that goes for the rest of ya in the NFL comp come on over anything to pass us through the footy offseason.
 
If your looking to get into a league the option group directory is what you want there will be a search engine there just put in the name of the group or league which is bigfooty it will come up and then just click on it put in the password (aussierules) and you'll be in. So come on ppl.

Oh and make your team names something with your bigfooty name in it so we all know whos who.

ok im in with a hastily put together side.

Do I have to drop players if they dont have an opponent- does that mean they have bye that week or something.

I know NBA gets played all week round- so I have to check things pretty regularly I guess ???

Arch you can change your team around any time you want and it becomes effective immediatly and all teams play from three to five games a week so it doesnt really matter who you have first up.

Just watch the form of players and make sure your players arent injured cos if there injured they aint scoring points.

I like to switch up my line up regularly, just watch for form patches and stuff like that.
