NBA Playoffs Pickem
1:48 AM ET on 4/19/13 by Jay Soester
Unfortunately it doesn't look like I'm going to be able to set up the website for NBA Playoffs Pickem in time.

As a result, the game will be moved back its roots on the league message board.

You can submit your entry in the game thread.

Overall Playoffs Pickem Results
3:47 PM ET on 6/24/12 by Jay Soester
Jeffery Murowsky won Overall Playoffs Pickem with 82 points combined from MLB, NBA, NFL & NHL Playoffs Pickem, two more than Greg Krause with Tom Vobejda, Nathan Susanto & Matthew Hardman rounding out the top five. Murowsky earns the five championship points that go along with the honor while the other 20 members to finish in the top quarter of all 84 to participate in at least one playoffs pickem game also earned championship points for their finish.

The 2011-2012 championship standings are now updated with the results. Greg Krause's move from 16th to 15th was the highest change in ranks on the standings. John Wright jumped into the top 25 as well. Only Overall Standings Pickem remains before bonus points.

NBA Playoffs Pickem Results
6:44 PM ET on 6/23/12 by Jay Soester
Jeffery Murowsky is the winner for the final stand-alone game of the season as he topped NBA Playoffs Pickem at 50 points. He earned the winner distinction via tiebreaker over Tim Schneider thanks to having earned more points from the conference championship round. Greg Krause, Tom Buske, Steve Coumbis and Skip Wilson finished behind the duo all on 49 points. Fourteen members had the Heat winning the championship for the extra 0.5 championship points that go with a correct champion prediction. Murowsky, Schneider, Krause & Tom Vobejda tied for the most correct series picks at 13 for the extra 0.5 championship points while Buske, Coumbis, Skip Wilson, John Wright, Kevin Whorton, Dave Berrong, Gianfranco Lintas, Joby Hapgood & Mike Brekke tied for the most correct series length picks with five to also earn an extra 0.5 championship points.

The 2011-2012 championship standings are now updated to reflect the results. All that remains now is the overall results for Standings Pickem & Playoffs Pickem before bonus points are factored in. Jeffery Murowsky's jump from 14th to 13th was the first change in rank after the results were factored in.

What are you watching?
10:48 AM ET on 6/1/12 by Jay Soester
I put up a variant of this poll every season it seems. I wanted to put this up yesterday after the pair of OT games in each series of the night, but a busy day pushed it back.

Which Series Are You Watching?

  • Stanley Cup
  • NBA Conference Finals
  • Both
  • Neither

Reply to the poll thread with your answer's explanation. I'm curious to see if the answer changes by region of the country (or internationally).

NBA Playoffs Pickem Available
2:13 PM ET on 4/27/12 by Jay Soester
NBA Playoffs Pickem is now available.

This is the last game to begin for the 2011-2012 season.

If you signed up for ASFL2 after December 31st, 2011, you can participate, but you won't earn championship points as you aren't eligible for the 2011-2012 season.

The deadline for entries is 12:57 PM ET on Saturday. Make sure to act quickly, the lockout didn't leave much of a window.

NHL & NBA Playoffs Assignment
11:26 PM ET on 4/24/12 by Jay Soester
I'm looking for some help on an NHL & NBA Playoffs Assignment that's designed to help me test things out before setting up an NHL and/or NBA Playoffs Fantasy Game on the league website as soon as possible. The first draft for the assignment took place on April 12th, a day after the NHL playoffs began. I'm looking for at least six members to help me set up a draft prior to the NBA playoffs beginning and prior to the NHL's second round starting.

You can participate by sending a list of at least 60 (NBA) or 108 (NHL) players (making sure to account for any players that haven't been guaranteed of being in the playoffs or next round yet) or by replying with a draft time that works for you. While I'm not optimistic that my schedule will work to sort out a live draft in the next few days, I'm hopeful six other members can pair up at a given time. I'll also need help setting up a basketball excel file similar to the one for the NHL game that has relevant player stats for all players that can be drafted. Giving a list and/or participating in a live draft is worth at least 3 BP while helping with the file can be worth five or more.

For more information please read the first post of the thread and the most recent. If you have any questions, please reply to the thread.

League Poll - NBA Lockout
11:59 PM ET on 11/3/11 by Jay Soester
With a full month of the season already cancelled and the prospects for a season changing by the day, I'm curious as to what ASFL2 members think of the NBA Lockout and its impact on your fan-hood and fantasy sports participation. Reply to this thread on the message board if the lockout has changed your opinion of the NBA.

You can pick between the choices below, here.
  • I don't care about the NBA.
  • I don't care about the NBA, but I miss Fantasy Basketball.
  • I can do without the NBA until Christmas.
  • I'm fine with missing some games, so long as there's a Fantasy Basketball season.
  • I can do without the NBA until the NFL season is over.
  • Just give me the playoffs.
  • The whole situation pisses me off.
  • Just bring it back ASAP.

NBA Playoffs Pickem Results
11:54 PM ET on 6/12/11 by Jay Soester
This was just the third time since the NBA expanded its postseason format to eight teams from each conference in the 1983-84 season that the NBA postseason finished before the NHL postseason, excluding strike-infuenced seasons. If the Canucks win game six on Monday, the ending dates of the two postseasons will match those of 2002, the last time the NBA finished first.

With that bit of trivia out of the way, I can congratulate Skip Wilson for winning the 2010-2011 edition of NBA Playoffs Pickem with 43 points. He finished three points ahead of Kraig Monkman, who was the only member to correctly pick the Mavericks to win the championship. Mike Brekke (35), Tim Schneider (35) and Javier Martinez (33) rounded out the top five.

Mike Miles finished in 15th place for three championship points to gain three more points on Anders Nilsson after he finished in 32nd place. Miles now holds a 640-628 advantage with NHL Playoffs Pickem, NHL Standings Pickem and overall Standings Pickem & overall Playoffs Pickem remaining.

League Poll - Postseason Popularity
2:09 PM ET on 5/8/11 by Jay Soester
Last year I put the NBA & NHL Playoffs up against regular season MLB games and MLB won easily. This year, I'm putting the two postseasons up against one another.

Which postseason have you been watching more of and does having a team to root for factor in?
