Seriously, frick Mac. He left over 50 points on his bench against a team people are fighting for a playoff spot against.

These are the times when I wish, before the season starts, the league comes to an agreement. The commish will check all lineups daily and if one is not properly set, he will insert players for him. If there are more than 1 players available to be inserted from his bench, the player with the most points out of say the last 30 days is put in. Sure, it'll never work because people are too scared and will call it cheating when in reality, it's about the only way you can get 12 people to finish a season when you can potentially have a new lineup every day. Sure, you can set it for weeks at a time but obviously it's not working.

I wouldn't consider it cheating at all. next season we should do this. can't do it this season because it would unfairly reward those that played them while they were inactive and punish those who play them now.

for next year though I would be down. 6 team playoff might also help with activity also greater chance of it coming down to the wire

the trade deadline has passed so it's over with but man you don't understand how crazy I was going over that potential trade. I was going through entire season stats of all the involved players game by game. looking at FG percentages I was comparing schedules with the rest of my players. it was getting bad I wanted to make the right decision. I finally gave up and said let it be.

I seriously have a problem. I've came so close in Hornets talk leagues I want to finally win one damnit

only way it'll happen is I make it as the 2 or 3 seed win the 1st round and have someone upset team james in 1st. then I could have a legit chance. if I make it 4th seed or play james in the title game no chance. if it was a one week matchup it may be possible to get lucky if LeBron is not playing many games but to try to compete for 2 weeks with his squad, not possible. only team that could right now imo is ttt and he most likely won't make the playoffs

I think we just made a new rule for next year.

I love it. If it is announced before the season, no one should have a problem

Great, as a roster Nazi, I would love this responsibility. Obviously we might run into issues where players are not picking up spot starts but never leaving a bench player out.

Now, would this apply to injuries as well? Say it's announced 30 minutes before tip off the player will not play and the owner doesn't see it in time. He may be a regular and active but as someone who checks rotoworld multiple times a day, I think we could alleviate this as well and keep the owner and the opponents happy.

some people may have a problem with this one but I wouldn't at all. I hate when I constantly check and then the game starts and 5 minutes after tip off it's updated with "oh by the way your guy is injured"
