For many years now, this board has had a fantasy league on the site hoops.sports.ws. It's a different scoring system and setup from other fantasy basketball sites. Current players include TucsonDevil, ASUChris, Ollie, Tank, and others; in the past we've also had WastedFate, Chaplin, FDog, Brian in Mesa, Chris Sanders, etc. Dyle is the defending champion.

Information about how the site works is in the sticky threads at http://sunstalk.net/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=4. We're looking for three or four new managers this season (or old ones who, so far, have not announced their intention to return). If you are interested after reading the sticky threads, please email me at elindholm AT ca DOT rr DOT com.

Thanks!

Suns content: Frye has the potential to be a more effective player on both ends of the floor, but I don't think he has the mental makeup. Lopez offers better long-term prospects. The wild card is Turkoglu. Can he really hold down a starting PF position in the Western Conference?

It's a bit difficult to explain in a few sentences, but the sticky threads lay it out pretty clearly, I think.

For all those who are on the fence, last year was my first year, and I loved the league. It's not like most fantasy bball leagues where you have to micro manage your team every week, to get the players that happen to play the most games that week. You have your set rotation, and those are the players that will get the bulk of the minutes. If you're really interested, follow the link provided by Eric at the top for a much more thorough explanation.

Just fired off an email. Glad I saw this post. I hadn't checked my other email inbox in awhile. Hopefully there's still a spot or two left.

Best fantasy league I've ever been in, by far. :)

I also want to endorse the league (if there are spots still open). Though I constantly get beat to a pulp each year - it does have a great scoring system and allows everyone to be competitive if they chose to put in a bit of time. I just can't seem to transfer my brilliance in fantasy football to fantasy basketball... :)

I believe the league is now closed, but I will post again if we get any late drops. Thanks to everyone for your interest.

I was in it maybe the first year or two. I always check the board too late. It was fun. Good luck guys!

As the owner of the 2nd best record in the league, is there a reason I don't have a first round bye?

We don't have first-round byes. The division winners have to take their chances along with everyone else! (Trust me, I'd appreciate a bye too...)

I'll send out an email if they actually make a deal. It still seems premature at this point.

Excellent, thanks slinslin, I'll contact you as soon as I know that we have some openings (which we are very likely to).

Looking forward to it!
