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:
1. (1) Mike Conley (Mem - PG)
2. (20) Al Jefferson  (Cha - PF,C)
3. (21) John Wall  (Was - PG)
4. (40) Joakim Noah  (Chi - PF,C)
5. (41) Trevor Ariza (Hou - SG,SF)
6. (60) Terrence Jones (Hou - SF,PF)
7. (61) Michael Carter-Williams (Phi - PG)
8. (80) Bradley Beal (Was - SG)
9. (81) Nikola Pekovic  (Min - C)
10. (100) Greg Monroe (Det - PF,C)
11. (101) Trey Burke (Uta - PG)
12. (120) Omer Asik (NO - PF,C)
13. (121) Gerald Green (Pho - SG,SF)
14. (140) Andre Iguodala (GS - SG,SF)
15. (141) Tim Hardaway Jr. (NY - SG)
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:
1. (7) Russell Westbrook (OKC - PG)
2. (18) Chris Bosh (Mia - PF,C)
3. (31) Goran Dragic (Pho - PG,SG)
4. (42) Chandler Parsons (Dal - SF,PF)
5. (55) Jrue Holiday (NO - PG)
6. (66) Jimmy Butler (Chi - SG,SF)
7. (79) Bradley Beal (Was - SG)
8. (90) Tyson Chandler (Dal - C)
9. (103) Jeremy Lin (LAL - PG,SG)
10. (114) Jared Sullinger (Bos - PF,C)
11. (127) Trey Burke (Uta - PG)
12. (138) Terrence Ross (Tor - SG,SF)
13. (151) Tristan Thompson (Cle - PF,C)

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.

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.
