Where do you people come up with the most messed up scoring systems. Seriously next time you use a point system just use:

pts = 1
reb = 1.5
assist = 2
block = 2.5
steal = 2.75
turnover = -1.5


And if you want to incorp fg and ft percentage use as well:

fga = -.5
fgm = 1.2
fta = -.25
ftm = .5

Trust me you will thank me later.

umm, if you don't like the way someone trades don't trade with them? Me and Barbier are in two leagues together and will probably never complete a trade for this exact reason.

[/ QUOTE ]

It's just really annoying having someone in the league that's impossible to make a trade with unless you want to get raped that's all.

[/ QUOTE ]

Two things.

1. He's been around the original league since inception. While I am first to admit his initial offers are usually absurd, you need to consider that *maybe* he understands trade values and league values more than you do. Because, he does.

2. Give him counteroffers that you think are reasonable. He makes more trades than anyone in the league. It's not because they are all one-sided. In fact, I don't think he's ever even gotten to the 2nd round of the playoffs, so how lopsided can all those trades possibly be?

[/ QUOTE ]

I did give him a very +EV and reasonable counter offer. I offered him some scrub (cant remember)+ Michael Redd for Kaman+Blatche where he is def getting the better end of the deal and he still declined. He has a ton of bigmen anyway and needs guards.

Of course he countered with some ridiculous offer I forgot because it was so bad. Something like Redd+Andre Miller+someone else AND my first round pick for Kaman+Bibby+someone else LOL. (Can't remember the exact trade but it was so awful and he expected me to throw in a 1st round pick too).

After that I just said [censored] it and realized he isn't going to a deal unless hes drastically ripping me off.

[/ QUOTE ]

I wouldn't trade you Kaman and Blatche for Redd either.

ps. pick 52 i messed up i wanted to take josh howard but didnt realize he also had SF eligibility so i took jamison.

[sethypooh21]

Best team is Alyeska, obviously, imo.

[BobboFitos]

rbk, your team is good, but i dont think you can possibly overcome bobbo's bananas week 1.

[KLJ]

Bobbo, I'm curious. I really like your first 7 picks. Why the last 3? I think you need assists and a bit of steals from your swingmen WAY more than you need scoring (given that you don't have any already)
