Seems the endgame of this Simmons vs Sixers war is upon us. I have to say that this 'player empowerment' talk has produced the softest set of divas and primadonnas the game has ever seen. Its not enough that you're a one trick one pony unwilling to improve, you also lack the spine to face the team that looked past these limitations and still made you financially straight for life and behave professionally on the way out. I can't but wonder how any GM serious about winning gives up anything substantial for him. Whatever abilities he has his lack of heart and grit will nullify

When I talk am last time una wan kill me..

You wey go start ur lamentations on draft day. Owambe or free puna will do the trick for me

Tap dancing class is session... The Ballerina in chief has his new tap dance shoes

@A40 come and carry your gbanjo!! He is being outplayed by a freaking rookie QB. Your gbanjo is busy overthrowing everyone, missing open throws, tap dancing and riding his luck on Fournett..

You wan check their QB rating?

Well, while you are at it, pay homage to the GOAT, he dismantled your bumble bees…

I am declaring an APB on Brady and @A40! WHERE YOU AT!!!! SHOW YOURSELF!!!!!

Consecutive games where your MCM has failed to be the difference in games. Are we sure the rings were about Brady or more about Bill and Gronk?

You no dey shame. Bill ko Cosby ni. A 44 year old QB won a superbowl on his first attempt with a man who had 0 SBs as Head coach while said Bill is staring down another losing season without the GOAT. As for Gronk don't make me laugh. He didn't play when GOAT Brady led the greatest comeback in the history of sports. 7 rings and only one constant. Brady

Mafejo pami. He is sha 3-1. Every other thing you dey yarn is megedefegede like Eedris for 'Wackawikee MCs' plus nothing concern me with QB rating. What is Aaron Fraudgers QB rating? Why is he still 1-4 in NFC Championship games? Are you not ashamed? 1 Superbowl in 17 seasons! nigga I can divide... My Steelers are in transition, so you beat us? Big whoopty whoop! Small Joe Burrow beat us last week. Get in line. Aaron Fraudgers disciples ought to be ashamed, a QB like Ben who is great but not as gifted as Fraudgers made 3 SBs

See him mouth! Your Steelers are in transition yen yen yen! Transition you say and you still have JuJu, TJ Watt (ProBowler), C. Claypool, C. Heyward (ProBowler), M. Fitzpatrick (ProBowler), J. Washington and Najee Harris, a stud rookie.

Abeg sell that rubbish lamba to another person. We don hear how una dey beg for the same Rodgers to come replace Big Ben... Abosi...

Juju ko Fuji ni. If we count top 20 WR for league he's not among. TJ has been injured, Claypool didnt play yesterday. Heyward is aight not an All pro dude. Going into the season every pundit agreed we had the worst QB in the division and wouldn't finish higher than 3rd. As for Aaron Fraudgers the book has been written on that fraud, if he can't lead the ShiitPackers to a Superbowl with the best O-Line, a top 3 receiver and top 5 RB what hope will he have on a weak Steelers team? He will just cry his way out of town like the diva he is

October Baseball is here!!!! Who is with me?

Wildcard game tonight..

Boston Red Sox v NY Yankees

Good to see Nwaba (Rockets) and Nwora (Bucks) get good minutes in the preseason games.

What a defensive play by Red Sox Catcher Kevin Plawecki to tag Judge out of scoring at home plate with Stanton on base..

Nothing beats October Baseball..

This Kyrie matter don tire me sef.

I know it's only preseason but come on man

Lol. I see. So how are points scored?

You score a point over 10 categories over your opponent. So na 10 points per week for each category, like total points, rebounds, steals, blocks, TO, 3pts, FGA, FTA, and the others. You go follow your opponent fight for points and the point go add to your total every week, like say 6-4-0 (meaning you win 6 categories, lose 4 and draw 0), so e go dey add every week. Na so the rankings go dey, highest wins, but make you no worry, na you go be our bonus like some people (I no wan mention names), and you no go kuku make the playoffs, na 10-0-0 I promise you for every time we battle. Na very interesting game, just drop your yahoo email with birdman make he add you.

The price na the bragging rights you go get when you win. Like this year, when I teach all of una better lesson, una no go hear word for here again. Last season na that foolish AD, Kawhi and Collins wey decide to just dey do nonsense towards the end of the season na why KILLRHYMZ get mouth so, if not, na me get the league last season. My own even better, see Smoosh.. na 7th him take. Na him call me Knicks but na him no make playoffs
But if you wan add prize, nothing do you, I will easily win your price..

Brooklyn and KD need to grow a pair and give Kyrie a hard ultimatum. Either you're in or out. They won't win with Kyrie in diva mode anyway. The best ability is availability

steady986:
What's it really about? Fill me in. Perhaps it's something I can spare some time.

The short of it: you draft about 10 players that you think will be the best players in the upcoming season. Every week you line those players up against a different opponent and compete in 10 categories like Most Points, Most Assists, Least Turnovers, FG % etc. Each category you win in is 1 pt. So if you played SmooshCHN week 1, final score might be 7-3 for example. We tally these points per week, and towards the end of the season, the top 6 players enter the playoffs.

Obviously the initial draft is key, and people use different strategies. If you draft a Harden and other scorers, you likely win Most Points category every week you play. But if you draft too many scorers, your rebounds and assists suffer and you might lose overall each week. Or you can draft balanced teams, so that if you have a superstar like AD that goes down due to injury, you team still has enough balance to win categories. The draft has 10 rounds, and by round 3, most of the big name players are gone. This is where you have to think about diamonds in the rough, players no one knows that will ball in the upcoming season.

Every season we have played has its own challenges. Last year, the injury bug was strong in the league, and it changed peoples strategies. Imagine you picked AD with your high draft pick, and he gets injured half the season! You have to figure out how to replace him from free agency. You might get lucky and pick up a no name player that gets hot, or you could trade with another team to re-arrange your roster. You can swap players from free agency up to 4 times per week to help with injuries. Last season people used this a lot to stay afloat.

All of this means the initial draft we do next week is crucial. Everybody wants to pick the superstars like Giannis and Durant obviously. But if you see AD and Lillard available, who do you pick? If you think AD will have his best year ever, you pick the all-rounder AD. If you think AD will have another injury season, you pick a Lillard instead and take his points with a high TO and low FG pct.

I should add that most nairalanders I have played with are bloodhounds, These guys have no joy and will punish you as much as possible. You make a mistake and they will gladly flog you an 8-2 or 9-1. Nigerians have a high level of wickedness in the blood But dont worry, some of us are nice guys, and we will treat you humanely until you learn the ropes.

I see. That means there's nothing the game player can do improve his chances of winning in-season, like fantasy basketball. All the onus is on the ballers themselves.

Actually its the opposite. Star players get injured or load managed often, which can kill your plan A. To counter, you can add and drop players all season long. Rookies and sophomores are very valuable in this regard - some will catch fire midway into the season. Some vets also turn the tables and drop double-doubles after being traded. I owe my run last year to predicting which players are about to get hot and picking them in time. smooshchn and joephemzyz are very good at this btw. Many times, they will have snatched the guy I was setting for like hours beforehand. Other guys know how to beat you with a team that looks inferior, without add/dropping players. Then there are the cats that play like 3 fantasy leagues so they have benefit of strategy from other leagues. I wont name them here before them KILL me

In short, after like the first month, everyone is scrambling for plan B, C and D

steady986:

You roster will have like 12 guys. You will have the following 8 positions to fill
PG
G
SG
F
SF
C
Util
Util

I usually use the weekly button to fill week by week, and daily I adjust if needed

I enjoyed trolling smooshchn last year. I bumped him out of the final playoffs spot, and made it all the way to the finals. I cant even lie, it was a sweet ride

I'm not in the best state of mind. I'm basically having a tough time staying alive in this country. You all should not flog a dying man. Make una no too flog me this month. Except if you don't care about my mental health.
