Re: Lucky17's Yahoo! FBB H2H League: 2012 Preseason: Constitution Up!

anyone interested in Nate the Great?

no one? come on guys, he's a 3 time slam dunk champion for crying out loud!

[hpantazo]

Since the seasons appears to be lost, should we begin discussing a cut down date? Is there still some value in uploading the rosters to Yahoo at some point before fantasy basketball is simply closed up?

I'm still holding out some hope that the lockout ends in the next week or two.

You're a very optimistic man...I don't think we'll have any basketball this season.

I agree...  but before cutting E'Twan Moore, I'd at least like to see him in a pre-season game, be it this season or next.

That's fair. But I also like having each season's rosters on the league page. And it makes sense to allow free agent signings if we're going to continue to trade in this looonnnngggg offseason of ours.

Yeah, I've definitely torn, because I'm dying to play around on the waiver wire.  I don't feel strongly enough either way to really fight for a position.  I do see the benefit, though, in knowing who the free agents are out there when I'm evaluating trade discussions.

I remain hopeful that there will be a resolution to the lockout. However, I don't think it happens in the next 30 days.

Shall we impose a cut down day sometime in the next few weeks, so that we can upload rosters into Yahoo!, where, presumably, they will be stored in the event there is no season?

Dec 1? Dec 15? Jan 1?

Jan 1st..the first day of the New Year sounds good to me.

Yeah, I'm torn as well. It may make even more sense, not to allow F.A. signings, or force cut downs, and set a trade deadline until spring instead.

I can get on board with that.

[Gainesville Celtic]

I don't really care when the date is, but I think we should finalize the following (since it may ahve some minor impact on moves):

- how will we determine a rookie draft order if the season is lost?
- how will we determine the waiver wire order going into 2012-13 if the season is lost.

seems to me that with each we could:

a. just repeat the draft order from this offseason (i.e. base it on 2010-11 league results). Waiver wire order could either reset based on 2010-11 league results or we could open waivers, then carry that order over to next season.

b. run a 20-team lottery -- weighted or not -- for both draft order and waiver wire order.

c. decide that we'll do whatever the NBA does, and reset when the next season begins.

Poll is up, on when to have a roster deadline day:
