I'm in two leagues. One is a keeper league (based on round drafted and term of contract) and the other is not.
Here's my 10-team keeper draft results:
Obviously, all the first round talents were kept, leaving me with a choice of Conley or Bosh in the first. Keepers were Wall, Jefferson, and Noah.
Here are my draft results for a 12-team standard league:

I've never played but thought of doing it this year. My interest in the NBA has been very limited the past few years.

I don't like it as well as fantasy football but I've played two years now and made the championship both years, so I keep playing.

Doing my first fantasy basketball league in 7 years, got forced into doing it. It's a H2H points league with only 8 people. I only know fantasy basketball drafting strategy for a rotisserie league and not H2H points scoring so I have a feeling I'll draft a completely terrible team.

Haha I'm doing the same type of draft should be interesting since I've never done one. Saw on ESPN they did a mock and the guy selected Durant 1st overall. I somehow got the 1st pick for this draft lol.lhslep134;1667788 wrote:Doing my first fantasy basketball league in 7 years, got forced into doing it. It's a H2H points league with only 8 people.

I wouldn't take Durant earlier than 6th (in any league bigger than my 8 teamer) because if you took him, say, 3rd your next pick isn't until 18. Yeah if you hit the rest of your picks then Durant's absence won't hurt. But that's never a given in a fantasy draft.

Yeah I'm not taking Durant I just thought it was interesting. This is a 10 man H2H league... Durant is currently ranked 22nd. Draft starts in 4 minutes and only 3 other people are in here so hopefully they don't take him lol would love it if he feel to me in the 2nd round.
