Happy Halloween Survivor League! Seems only fitting that a Ghost team rule the day right? Welp, below are the new rankings. FYI-I'll try to do these every two weeks...or conveniently based on whenever I'm on a run or have the best record (Commish Perks).

Rankings:
Rank) Team name (Record), Avg (Last rank) (GM)
1) Ghostown DJs (4-1), 305.9 (LR = 1) (Shawn) - Soooo, is it me or should Shawn pay less attention during the draft than he usually does? I mean, with these results, it's clear he's been doing it wrong for years.

2) Washington DC Brunchers (4-1), 286.5 (LR = 2) (Basa) - Giannis was clearly the #1 pick this year. If Basa had one other competent G...Yikes. Even still he has the highest scoring game this season (351). Jonas coming back would be a boost.

3) Englewood GunViolence (3-2), 287.6 (LR = 10) (DVS) - It's like the rook had cheat codes to this league. Getting great starts from Aldridge (sans Kawhi), Collison (who knew?) and Harris (regressing to the mean a bit) was a boon. Johnson and Simmons have been keen peep selections. We haven't even talked about AD, George, CJ and E-Bled. Kid will be a problem if he figures out lineups (lol @ his)

4) Gonzo's Ghoulies (3-2), 285.8 (LR = 9) (Cgonz00cc) - Two rookies in the top 4. What happened to this league? At least Cgonz's team name works for a top 4 "Ghosts and Ghoulies" bit. Can the positive upswings on his team (The Black German, Skal and Len) sustain a full season?

5) Oakland Cardpullers (3-2), 280.3 (LR = 14) (Mr. Hood) - What impresses me most about this team is Booker and Tatum. I expected one to get better as the season went on but the other, I didn't think he'd develop like this (dude is averaging 6rebs, almost 5ast and a steal).

6) L.A. Oatmeal Faces (4-1), 251.5 (LR = 7) (RBO) - Opponents are scoring 241 a game against RBO's team (lowest in the league). Let that sink in.

7) Tribeca HiBrows (3-2), 267.5 (LR = 6) (Ern) - Ed Davis? Really? Wow. But since hanging 341 on my team opening night, the defending champ hasn't cracked 290. He ain't a Keebler but Ern's still missing his Elf treats.

8) Chi.ESL Markrakanens (2-3), 282.7 (LR = 4) (Commish) - The core is there. The tweaks are tweaking. And Batum is coming back soon enough. Slim Cuz is ballin' and that 4th highest opponent avg (281.9) won't be that high forever.

9) Northeast DC Trade Guerillas (3-2), 257.4 (LR = 12) (Magilla) - Dwight is having a resurgence in CHA, Milsap is finding it hard to fit in with the Nuggets. The Trade Guerillas might need to dangle Steven Adams to balance out that patchwork roster.

10) Ozarks GOBs (2-3), 266.8 (LR = 13) (Ceej) - I have no idea why Spencer Dinwiddle is buried on this guys bench. Oh and Otto Porter is a beast.

11) Virgin Island Presidents (2-3), 260.7 (LR = 16) (Theo) - So Ben Simmons is a first round pick from now on right? I thought theo reached a round or two too early but I was wrong. Now I daydream about if I took Ben instead of Jordan in round 3. I still could have gotten Steven Adams and Zaza later. Dreams. Oh and theo will be a playoff team when IT returns but that's about it for his long term prospects.

12) Waiters Isle Rappity Raps (3-2), 246.8 (LR = 8) (DJR) - #12, right where a rook should be. If Myles Turner's one played game this year is any indication, it'll get better for the rook. But I doubt it.

13) Stanley Forms a Wall (1-4), 262.8 (LR = 15) (Boogs) - Nurkic and Butler are underachieving so far but Gordon and Fornier are balancing that out. So this team is right where it should be. Now if the former guys turn things around, it could get interesting.

14) Chino Hills Big Ballers (1-4), 250.4 (LR = 3) (Ryan) - Ryan's team should be better than 250fppg. Not sure why it isn't. But for sh*ts and giggles, he should trade me Lauri and Boogs should trade him Ball so that our team names have more context.

15) Coney Island Bad Boys VIII (1-4), 223.1 (LR = 5) (Deputy Commish) - 223 sans CP3 is probably 265-270 with CP3 right now. That would at least make the Deputy Commish respectable.

16) Restown Smerf City Slamz (1-4), 210.8 (LR = 11) (Smerf) - R.I.P. 2017-2018 Smerf City Slamz. Smerf, you still have to pay though!

Speaking of pay...

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.

first 4 rounds of draft picks out indefinitely or for the season.

-Be more pressed.
-Trade with stealth and intelligence.
-Waiver wire hawk.
-Keep an eye on hot streaks.
-Maximize your roster based on who's playing well.


Your goal should be to make the playoffs. Maybe set a secondary goal of having a better record than Magilla and RBO.

You can do it Smerf! I believe in you!

Oh yeah...and slide that fee in the Paypal when you get a min. lol

bunch of creme puff teams on my schedule for the next 5-6 games.

If I can squeak out this win vs Basa (not looking good though), it could be 6-8 games.

Aaaaaaand Batum is eyeing a return in 2 weeks. Yup, it's about to get funner!

hey, but if Zingis go off for 70, it's wrap. we'll see. one of my guards need to do 40.

After Giannis was 'human' and I saw Slim Cuz with the 71, I thought I had it for sure.

Now I gotta sweat through Jonas, Poeltl, O'Quinn and Porzingis and hope Jordan has one of those 12pt, 20+reb, 3 blk low turnover games.

____________

I always just check how many points my team has/scored.

But I was propping myself (when I basically used the sites formula).

The Markrakanen... is about to be released.

____________

im 3-5 and have a higher (and very consistently maintained) scoring average than the entire other conference

BLM has the top 6 scoring averages smh

WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE

OKC is in last place in their division and they’d probably be the best team in the East.

And we mix up divisions every few years but it always happens.

And the Bill Walton division (Big Red) is always tough (4 of top 6 avgs, every team above 282). 12 seasons and the Walton has won 7 times (Ryan, Rob, Me 2x, Shawn, Theo, LABeat). This league is basically the Walton vs Ernie (3x). Frank and TJT were one offs lol.

Oh and the site is goofy with the division names. BLM is the CB34 (Charles Barkley) and the Jet (Kenny Smith) divisions. ALM is the Walton and the Elevator (Ernie Johnson).

The way the schedule use to work, you'd play your conference for 20 games, then the other conference for like 28 games then back to you conference to finish the last 8-10 games or whatever. So we named the conferences after different races of announcers so we could have a race war:

A little league history there for you.

I got to get a win soon, right? The bottom half of my roster never has good games at the same time. Murray especially is killing me with his up and down games. Nerlens and Zaza have been ass lately. I knew I shouldn’t have trusted Zaza.

And FYI, I will be putting Batum in my lineup as of 11/13. Stock up on food, supplies, survival kits, duct tape, flashlights, band aids, ibuprofen, compression sleeves, ace bandages and all other survivalist necessities. Prepare your storm shelters and panic rooms.

I'm comin'.

____________

>And FYI, I will be putting Batum in my lineup as of 11/13.

Nicolas Batum (elbow) took on contact at practice on Thursday and "did it all," according to coach Steve Clifford.

Coach Clifford did hint that Batum could play more minutes on some nights, and not as many in other matchups. It did also sound like Batum could come off the bench to help organize the second unit, especially with how well Jeremy Lamb has played. The Hornets have their next home game on Nov. 15 against the Cavs, and it feels like Batum has a decent shot to play in that one.

Nov 9 - 4:27 PM

and caught an L. Ok, Smerf, I jump started your turnaround so you can see I legit support my earlier advice! lol

Then losing Russell, ugh. And he has the worst type of injury...not severe enough for surgery but not light enough for a short timetable. It's just 'out indefinitely'. I hate it when one of those happen.

On the bright side though, I lose him and get Batum back this week so...fantasy universe takethaway, fantasy universe giveth.

New Rankings Tomorrow.

Thanks for the jump start.

How am I️ gonna get that 300+ avg with Those stinkers. Right when I was gonna talk shit to Ern about my minutes being good—several guys get hurt and fuck my shit up


Looks like we’re trending up again...hopefully the Monroe issue gets resilved

Last 5 avg = Ryan (312), Theo (311) and You (277...slumping)

Ugh. And I've had to play Basa and Ernie (top seeds in both conferences right now).

Blows.

If i were in the Barkley division, where a rookie and a team putting up 255 a game are leading, maaaaaaaaaaan listen.
