I wholeheartedly agree with Silver. Last Year I lost frickin Richard Jefferson(and he's not even that good!) and my team down the drain early in the season!

Because you didn't work the waiver wire.....

You gotta come ready to play.......I had countless injuries...that's life....you gotta make moves!!!!

Who you get on draft day is not gonna determine whether you win or lose in Fantasy Basketball.

Bring your "A" game!!!!
You sound like he hasnt played fantasy ball ever before this. Save the advice bro, guns has won back to back ESPN leagues and multiple money leagues.

I can't believe the complaining in this forum because you have to work harder to win a league.
Who says its complaning cause you have to work harder? How about the fact that most people in a 20 team league just lose interest? I have sent trade offers to teams and those managers havent even bothered rejecting the trade. Sure you can have that in a 10 team league but there is a lot less uninterested people. This way, you have 4 bad managers rather than 14.


Once again, That will happen in ANY league no matter how big. It has happened last year, it happened in Fantasy Baseball and we only had 6 or 8 teams!

I think having smaller keagues is the way to go .Last year I was in a public league on yahoo, and one guy had Glenn Robinson at his SF spot the ENTIRE season. Frickin rediculous!! Oh, and BTW, I lost Richard Jefferson too plus Boozer at the end of the season AND AK47. I had to trade Lebron just to get more the one decent player to last the season. Oh, and I finished second. Reggie Evans baby!!!!! Rebounding Champ!!!

I said the same thing but I also said that the pool of uninterested/teams managers will be smaller. It will give people a chance to make trades wih manager who have better quality players. Its not "complaining" to work harder or anything like that.

This is basically coming down to preferences so you dont have to say people are complaining or not willing to work hard etc. You already told me to create a smaller league and I stopped telling you what we wanted anyway!

I lost Boozer and Artest in an office league ($120 pot) and I was still able to win the league because I could make trades for quality players to replace the stats. In big leagues, a manager has 1 or 2 good players so he dose not have the pieces to replace the loss of one of them.

Stop complaining!!!!

20 teams will be a first for most and would be a great challenge.

14 teams is what we usually play with.

If one of you guys wanna make a league yourself with 10 teams or 2 teams.........knock yourselves out. You are not gonna win regardless!!!!

All i ask is that you join our leagues too......I'll gladly join another league especially if one of you guys start it up!!!!

I need 7 more teams and Joe needs 12 more........I know there are alot of people that stop by the site to visit everyday. Join us in Fantasy Basketball!!!!!

oohah style. This will be it from me about this.

I did, after my second post. You came out to tell us that we should "work the waiver wire" as if we didnt know that.
20 teams will be a first for most and would be a great challenge.
You know what would be an even greater challenge? 50 teams. That would be for real hardworking players that have to scour the waiver wire and check mins played.

I dont know why you think only people in 20 team leagues try hard or find it a great challenge. Try playing in a copmetitive league of 10 or 12 teams. You will know what I am talking about when you have to play people that try all year round.
14 teams is what we usually play with.
There is a reason for 14 not 20 teams! I actually play in league of 12 or 10 which is perfect IMO.
If one of you guys wanna make a league yourself with 10 teams or 2 teams.........knock yourselves out.
I have already acknowledged that. When I was told to do that, I stopped talking about it. I didnt know you were this hell-bent on having a 20 team league. Good luck to you. I hope you enjoy the challenge and have a lot of fun.
You are not gonna win regardless!!!!
Ahh trash talk, the essence of fantasy basketball.

I have already joined your league and I have also replied to joe saying that this league size thing comes down a matter of preference. I only asked once and when I was told it will not change, I stopped asking. I would appreciate it if you stop bitching and telling me what is more competitive and who is hardworking.

what happens in a big 20 team league is a team that gives up usually winds up helping a team at top with a lopsided trade. So its not all about how you deal with injuries. The bottomline like Silver said is in a 20 team league only 6 or so people check their teams. With 12 or 14 at least you will have more interest, competition & more talent. Finishing in the Top 6 only because you're the only one updating your team gets old.

Christ this thread has gottens stupid.

Bottom line, If anyone doesn't want to risk being in a 20 team league, don't sign up for my league, ain't the end of the world....I am already part of 2 other leagues. Joining a public league instead of running my own doesn't matter to me.

Come on fellas join Joe's league.......he has 11 teams now.......the more the merrier....

20 teams would almost be like being a real GM in the NBA. Guys have complained about the chance everyone won't be compeditive....but how many teams in the real NBA actually active the whole season? Not all GM's know what they are doing!!!!



There are plenty of casual posters here....plenty of people that just come to read the nonsense we talk......all we need is 9 more players!!!

Join up with the Fantasy and get in on the drama that is Fantasy Basketball!!!!
