PistonPowered will participate in mock GM league
Ngozika Nwaneri at PASPN.net has set up a mock GM league for PistonPowered readers, friends of PistonPowered readers and anyone else who signs up.
I’ve played this game a few years, and it’s great. Everyone comes up with trade ideas, and this is your chance to act on them.
Here’s a brief explanation:
This is the first fantasy basketball game that enforces the rules of the NBA’s Collective Bargaining Agreement. Participants can chose to either take over an NBA team as a General Manager (GM) or create an NBA sports management firm (Agent) for the purpose of managing the relationship between NBA players and the teams they play for. During the first half of the summer, GMs trade players and draft picks, decide team options, create draft boards and position themselves for the free agency period. The first half ends with the NBA Draft where GMs select college players for the up and coming season. The second half of the summer is the free agency period where Agents and GMs interact to negotiate contracts for players who are free agents, players who have been released, players looking for extensions from their rookie contract, etc. By October when other fantasy games are just starting, you would have already assembled your fantasy teams for Head-to-Head (GMs) or Rotisserie (Agents) competition for the upcoming NBA Regular season.
More information is available at the league’s home page.
You can pick your team Thursday at 4 p.m. here.
And thanks to Ngozika for putting all of this together.
