2013-14 OC FANTASY BASKETBALL PICK'EM RULES (UPDATED 10/24)
ROSTERS
The league will be set-up for 12 teams. All teams will be in one division. Rosters will be 12 players. Initially we will draft/recruit 12 active players to start our teams. Players can be selected from a list of 12 conferences.
Big East
Big Ten
Atlantic Ten
Big 12
Mountain West
Pac-12
ACC
SEC
American Athletic
Missouri Valley
Conference USA
West Coast Conference
Each team will be allowed to have 1 wild card player from outside one of these 12 leagues and they may be picked at any time during the draft.
DRAFT
Draft/Recruiting will be set-up in a snake format. The order of draft will be randomly selected. I will post this once we know the 12 people participating. The draft will be done on the forums and must be completed by opening night, which is effectively, November the 12th. It will begin ASAP, without a time limit, but I'm hoping we have everyone ready to be pretty active. If the draft lingers longer, we can push the season back.
LINEUPS
Each team will start all 12 players. Each team however, must draft at least 2 players with center eligibility and at least 4 with forward and guard eligibility. Starting all 12 makes it much easier to score and since we don't have a template to input lineups, this is how it has to be. Position eligibility will be based on ESPN's roster page. Therefore, if a guy is listed as a forward/center, he may play those positions. We will be listing them on draft day to make sure everything is followed.SCORING
Total scoring will be based on the following numbers.
TOTAL=(POINTS x 1)+(REBOUNDS x 1.25)+(ASSISTS x 1.5)+(BLOCKS x 2)+(STEALS x 2)-(TURNOVERS x 1)
We will base each week on a scoring system and your team will be awarded points for their finish per week. So, if you lead the league in total points, you receive 12 points. Whoever finishes last gets 1 point. The top 4 point earners by the end of the year will make the Final Four.
SCHEDULE
The season will start on November 12th and will consist of 14 weeks. The Final Four will be the following week (15) and the Championship/Consolation Game will be the following TWO weeks (16 and 17).
PLAYOFFS
After the four highest scoring teams are determined, they will be seeded based on total points. The Final Four semis, #1 vs #4 and #2 vs #3, will be Feb. 17-23. The Finals will be Feb. 24-March 9.
PLAYER ADDS/DROPS/SUBS
Each team may use 2 "subs" at once while a player is injured, suspended or out. Subs must be submitted at the beginning of the week, prior to that player's first game of the week for it to count. They must be averaging equal or less TPG (total points per game) than the player they are replacing, must be from the same conference and play the same position.
ENTRY FEES
Previously discussed, $20.00 to play. Sent via Paypal to someone prior to the season who will hold the money. I can use mine or someone else who has done this in the past can.
PAYOUTS
Total pot is going to be $240. Still deciding the playoff breakdown...
