Yep, 6 team playoff with UTIL and IR added would be best

Can y'all give reasoning why you're not a fan of 8 starters?

Just curious

We have a pretty solid group of regulars (Tots, Drake, Fear, DJ, Dro, etc.) and some great new additons (None & Lobos). We don't hear from Fleur or DCB but I think they are pretty active.


I didn't make any of these lists despite being in every league. LOL

Don't like 8... too many.. means people in bottom half of regular season make it.

More than 6 players then the starts thing goes out the window (if roster size stays same meaning less on bench).

Personally I like the toughness of just the 5 positions.

Don't like the IR spot tbh... makes more of a challenge if you have multiple injured players to REALLY field a team. Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and trade/cut.

I prefer the 1 week playoffs like the regular season but understand you get a better gauge for 2 weeks. Means regular season HAS to go to 16 weeks so we don't run into end of the season.

1. Playoff teams increased to 6-8(league vote on which number)


8 is ridiculous.

Against 6 also if that means 1 week playoffs.

quote:

2. Addition of a G,F,UTIL and IR Spot. You'd start 8 players and have 4 on your bench


I would like the 1 utility spot and maybe the IR spot. Not a fan of adding the other positions.

quote:

3. Regular Season reduced to 16 weeks(18 weeks is too much imo, and no one wants to play on the final week of the reg seasson when things get wacky)


Definitely okay with this.

quote:

4. 1 extra point for every 3 point FG made(balances out the guards vs bigs a bit)


Whats the point in this? This is just adding something just to add something.

quote:

5. If you go over the start limit: you'll get docked points proportionally to how many you went over.


I honestly don't like the start limit to begin with. The league is more active with adding and dropping without the limit. It also offsets users who have LeBron on their roster.

I'll go more in depth later today on my reasonings(have to run an errand)

We could go PG/SG/G/SF/PF/F/C(7 starters) if that would work as a compromise. Just 5 starters doesn't give a full picture of how your team is if you have to leave 40+ points on the bench cause you couldn't start them(which is dumb imo)

adding an extra point for 3s makes it that guards can close the gap a bit in terms of not being as worthwhile as bigs. It shows the worth of a guy more imo. 3PTs are a legit cat in many leagues.
