Are there going to be any smaller leagues than $600?

Thanks! I'll know what my terms are later today with the NBA. Here's an offer, who wants to do a private $100 or $250 league outside of our overall contest? If we can drum up the interest I'll see if I can do that once I hear back from STATS and the NBA.

Just a quick note signing up for the basketball leagues: Mock Draft Central offers mock drafting for basketball, just like we do for football, baseball, and zillions of other sports.

As NFFC/NFBC/NFBBC members, you're welcome to free use of our software. Most of you already have MDC usernames and passwords; you can draft at any time. If you need a username or password, e-mail me at: [email protected] and I'll set you up.

I'm still working on the prize money, but here's my latest option:

1st -- $3,500
2nd -- $1,500
3rd -- $750

Some owners have asked about creating an overall prize through the owners and we'll deal with that later. Having no monetary overall prize is allowing me to get this approved, so let's get the leagues set up first and get the winner of this league in next year's NBA.com Fantasy Basketball Magazine!

Greg,

We will be doing the draft @ Mock Draft Central? In all these years of being in fantasy/roto leagues I have never done an on-line draft...Anything out of the ordinary I need to look for?

When do we find out our draft position and where to look for a position eligiblity list?

Sorry to be a pain...

regards,
Steve P

Greg, I did receive the general rules from you via e-mail but still need (no rush) the position eligibility list. Again, no rush...you'll fill two leagues easily...a third probably isn't out of the realm of possibility.

I'm unfortunately still on hold.
