The Coach did not set his lineup and I am up 8-1. I'm not tanking but I don't want to loose out on a top draft pick because of that, things are tight at the bottom.

"Over there". Just to be clear, Im fairly certain the schedules are actually randomized as if there were no conferences. This isn't like OKC leeching wins off a tanking spurs and rockets due to travel distance in the NBA scheduling. We don't play divisional teams more than out of division.

I'm trying to remember why and when we added conferences. I know that In general we try to match realism of the NBA. While east coast has some classic rivalries in the real NBA, i dont think anyone can even name a team from their own fantasy conferences off the top of their head. I prefer looking at just a general standings list for the league, just my 2 cents. I would rather have the 2nd and 3rd best records own the 2nd and 3rd seed rather than giving it other to a leader of a made up conference.

I hope coach does set his lineups as he's fighting to keep the 8 seed. However, I would prefer you beat him and overtake me for 11th seed

I hope he doesn't set his line-up this week. Things are tough at the top.RR OG

I actually don't care, I've been in the spot you describe in the past where I was 2nd in the strong conference and 3rd overall. We can absolutely change it, I just don't think it really makes a difference. Gotta beat the best of both conferences to win it all anyway.RR OG

You've played the bottom 4 teams 6 times and I've played them 4 times. All three of the top teams in your conference have played more in-division games than non-division games. It is possible you are correct and all of that is random, but the outcome is the same.
so after playing every team once, I played Berta (14th) Beat Mode (6th) and Skywalker (4th)
You have played mack north (11th) jbml (10th) and beat mode (6th).
It looks to me like you've actually had the easier schedule.
But all of this is irrelevant. Even if i wasnt losing spots in the rankings and I was 16th, I still think that the conferences are pointless. Can we at least agree on that? Let's say no one cares that current 2nd and 3rd are reseeded to 4th. Do the conferences have a purpose ? I'd say no. We play random schedules anyways. That's all I wanted to discuss. Maybe there are others who agree. I don't know maybe not. Not trying to start an argument just Curious what people's thoughts are
The counter argument to "well we all have to go through the top anyways" is should the regular season count for anything? At least all 20 weeks should count for playoff seeding IMOLast edited by koncept; Tue Mar 7, 2023, 02:47 PM.in masai we trust

Always respected DanH. Hoping you're not feeling attacked. Just wanted to know if other people also agree conferences are pointless.

Just so you know that's actually incorrect. For the first 15 weeks we each played every team once. Every team does. After that it resets the schedule to week 1 2 3 again in rotation.

You have played mack north (11th) jbml (10th) and beat mode (6th).
Anyway, that part was just supposed to be some fun banter, my team is way better than yours sort of trash talk. You know, the playoff system doesn't matter because no one can beat me, sort of thing.
