NLSC Fantasy Basketball '18

Draft is live in a half hour. IIRC you can log in half an hour early to see which pick you got. Also, I fixed the schedules so that you will play everyone in your division twice. Reminder that division winners make playoffs

I know it's already predraft and only 20 mins. before the draft but can the draft time be changed to 1 minute? 1 minute 30 seconds is too long for the live ones to wait for those damn autodrafts.

Auto draft picks are made after 10 seconds. They should not be ones you should be worried about.

Can't say for sure how my team will do this year, but I am definitely more excited/happy about my picks this year than last year from what I remember.

1. (12) Nikola Jokic PF,C
2. (21) Draymond Green SF,PF
3. (44) Al Horford PF,C
4. (53) Carmelo Anthony SF,PF
5. (76) Avery Bradley PG,SG
6. (85) Gary Harris SG,SF
7. (108) T.J. Warren SF
8. (117) Kent Bazemore SG,SF
9. (140) Tyler Johnson PG,SG
10. (149) Mason Plumlee PF,C
11. (172) Tyler Ulis PG
12. (181) Bobby Portis PF,C
13. (204) Caleb Swanigan PF,C

NovU, I'm waiting for some team grades

Ditto. I expect to see some real in depth analyzing too.

nice to actually draft my team for a change. shout out to shadow for killing my battery. bastard!

berlin- there were a few guys you scooped before my picks but it was novu with the ultimate cockblock by picking markannen way early. kudos though

16 team team drafts are fun. you hope the 1 or 2 guys you target are on still on the board, get your hopes high , than they're gone when right before it's your turn.

my team's meh. nabbed 2 C's right away so didn't have to worry about chasing to fill the position later. half thought about drafting LBJ but the Brow will do

Only one I regret drafting was Tristan Kardashian.
I trust Pop in what he said about involving Aldridge more in offense than NLSC analysts, at worst he gets traded which is still a good thing.
Kyrie is gonna die trying to be the league scoring leader, he wants to be the man like Westbrook, Curry, Wall, Harden, or even Thomas in Boston so bad that he left LeBron before LeBron could leave him.

Due to large volume of requests rapidly filling up my mail box, here is the in-depth draft analysis on some notable teams.

Jeremy Lin Bandwagon: Are you sure this is not an autodrafted team?
$: Mechanic's special, total wreckage indeed. It's totally safe to say this guy's not rep(H)eating this season.
QuireSultan: This guy has no idea at all what fantasball is. It's insulting to our prestigious league.
DRose Sex Belt: If the losing was the purpose of fantasyball, this guy's done it to near perfection.
airBerLIN'S DREADLOX: You very rarely see people fucking up with early round picks but this guy somehow pulled it off. Excellent job.
Average Joe's: Average, this guy realizes exactly who he is. Almost too much.
Gr(H)eaness: Perfection, excellent, amazing, IGN 11/10 rating. if this guy doesn't win it all, this league is rigged.

nlsc analytics. gotta love it

hey moz, the trade offer didnt take long. i'm impressed. you know the drill. sell me the dream and i'll accept the offer

So shadow, the question was not answered: does "on the fly" mean "really slow" in Tagalog? Lol

Waiting for Kuz to blow up this year. It's only a matter of time...

I was trying to figure out which icons to press to view stats, add to queue, and all that other shit on mobile, app gui changed last time I used it.

I forgot about the draft and got auto-drafted. Is my team as bad as I think it is? (spoiler alert: probably)

To be fair the app sucks for drafting. You're still a slow learner shadow haha

Hey Vlad. Sell the dream baby!

I was partying way too hard to make it to the draft.

Hey Vlad. Sell the dream baby!

I will cancel my offer then worth a try

Pulled the trigger. Any thoughts on the trade? I practically moved up to 7th round by spending lower round picks.

Donovan Mitchell (13th round)
Lauri Markkenen (10th round)
Wesley Matthews (8th round)

FOR

Dirk Nowitzki (7th round)

A bit risky in my opinion. The Mavs have almost 0 chances to make the playoffs. He might get shut down at some point. I don't know if I would've pulled the trigger for a straight up Matthews for Nowitzki trade. Maybe you'll have some luck and father time won't show his impact on Dirk's game.

Yeah tbh I dunno how much he's really gonna play this year, and if he does play he might be okay being the second or third option

Then again I dunno how much those other two guys in the trade will do either so it might be an even swap

There's no benefit of shutting down Dirk, he's old so no need to think about his future in the league like young players do, playing or not Mavs won't make the playoffs anyway.
Dirk will continue to be played to stat pad his career numbers before he retires.
Only sure thing are he won't be the first option anymore and his minutes will be limited to keep him healthy and keep the stat pad going.

novu swindled someone again.

guys, who drafted Hayward? do you think he'll be back before the season ends?

Really nigga? With a bone split in two?

Nah. He is done. I am waiting for an official report but he is likely done for the season. All the prayers to Hayward and my season now.

A fractured ankle isn't as bad as a fractured/broken leg? Especially if it wasn't a spiral fracture

A fractured ankle isn't as bad as a fractured/broken leg? Especially if it wasn't a spiral fracture

The official injury report states he has a "discolated ankle and a broken tibia" though. I didn't watch closely when the thing happened, but the injury looked spiral to me.
