Is anyone interested in playing in a 20 team ESPN keeper league? We need some more owners in the next week or so. I am only interested in very active owners, and who will participate in the live draft.
PM me if you're interested in playing.

The reason we want 20 teams is so your knowledge of all the NBA is rewarded. In other leagues we've been in only the stars get picked and we all know who is good and who isn't. We wanted to try one where the Martell Webster's and Lavoy Allen's of the world are also important to your team. Having a roster that looks realistic sounds more fun to me than one where I have decide between starting Chris Bosh or Larry Sanders at center. You will have to decide if you want Kevin Seraphin or Kelly Olynk as your back-up to Bosh.
It may not end up very fun, who knows, but I'm ready for something a little different and hopefully a lot harder. More thought and research provoking.
I'll get back to you if we can't get enough, hopefully we can get enough to give this a go. We have 7 for sure so far.

Also it will be a random draft order. So yes you can end up with Lebron.

It does sound kinda cool, but id probably be learning the players as the season goes on, because like jambi, id be starting out too nba ignorant

I'm interested in this. Never done fantasy basketball before but I follow the league pretty closely (even during football season).

I really wish I could man, but I don't pay attention to the NBA until it hits the post-season. Mainly because the same 8 teams always make it.
The Milwaukee Bucks are going nowhere
