Love fantasy bball but school is so crazy right now I would most likely end up forgetting to set line ups all the time...

I'd be up for running one if we have enough interest. I'm not a huge NBA fan, but playing fantasy helps me keep up with it.

I have my annual draft at 10PM but if you need another body and plan on going in the next few minutes I'm down. I can promise I won't abandon the league like a lot of people.

It won't be tonight. We'll probably go with Yahoo, and you have to schedule drafts at least a few hours in advance and fill the league by 90 minutes before the draft.
We'll probably shoot for tomorrow night.

How bout Wednesday? Also can we tweak the rules if there are some weird ones, I am still stumped at why you get no minus points for missing field goals in the football ones.

Sounds good, I have Girls Lax practice so after 9:00 would be best for me.
Thanks

I'm with you on that. In my personal football league - not the govols247 leagues - you lose points for missed field goals. Of course, I also use individual defensive players, which is too intense for some people.

Keeping it simple tends to work best with fantasy basketball. Later tomorrow or Wednesday works with me. I may have to struggle to not pick the entire Spurs roster....

I'm in if you need another team. I can draft anytime after 6 central tonight, as I watch the two great tip-off games. And I don't mind to auto draft if I can't make an earlier draft time.
Thanks!

I'm willing to set up a draft for tonight, but it would have to be fairly early (say, 6 Eastern) or fairly late (10 or 10:30 Eastern). If that doesn't work for everyone, we can try tomorrow or Thursday.

That works for me. Are we doing one with a mobile app to set up line ups?
