    Everyone will sleeping with one eye open. Do you hear that? That's the sound of a reckoning. Grip your pillow tight, I'm in.

    In a nutshell, league members draft a team of NBA players who compile fantasy points each week based on performance. I.e. 1 rebound = 2 fantasy points, etc. If you get more fp than your scheduled opponent for that week, you win that match. Play continues throughout the season, culminating in fantasy playoffs with a crowned champion.

    Thanks. I have been playing (and winning) ESPN Fantasy Basketball (but Roto, not H2H) for 25 years straight, so I am very familiar with the general concept. I was just wondering if you are using one of ESPN, Yahoo, etc. for this internal league, or how you are doing the scoring.

    By the way, what happened to the poster who gave this thread its name?

    We use ESPN. Not sure what happened to Finn* - looked at his profile just now and his last post was 15 years ago, when he dropped out of the Smeg football league. He used to be in both. We've been continuing this league in his honor ever since. Crazy he's been gone this long.

    And the champ is back. That's me. :cool:

    If @Ziggy is in, then we have 10 and can start a slow draft. Otherwise, we will need one more team.

    Ziggy doesn’t follow basketball. He’s strictly a lacrosse / hockey / women’s softball fan.
