Fantasy Sport Players...streaming method=cheating or legit?
« on: April 17, 2008, 10:40:31 AM »
Well.. I lost to Outlawz (Mo Z Dizzle) in the finals of the dubcc basketball fantasy league by 3 points and/or one block. >:( The thing is, I didn't lose because he had a better team. My team was clearly murdering his. the reason I lost was because he used the streaming method to gain games on me. I coulda easily streamed right back to secure my 11-1 lead, but I wanted to beat him legitly, with the team I assembled.

So my question is, do you guys agree with the add/drop method or is it some pussy shit?


Mo Z used 29 players this week, compared to my 14.......Fair?

How are the rules in fantasy basketball when money is involved?

well, you have to either agree not to use BS streaming tactics or put a limit on moves... this is a public league, so there were no move limits. still, I didn't get beat because his team was better. my team was one of the greatest fantasy teams I've ever seen assembled. If I was in his position, I personally woulda' stuck with my team and taken the loss if that's what it came down to.

So streaming is just moving a player to the bench when his team is not playing and taking a bench player and putting him the line-up because he is playing?

this is a public league, so there were no move limits.

It's legit then.  Unless, there was some sort of agreement between all the players before the season or even before the playoffs.

no...streaming is dropping players to pick-up players that have a game that day, so that you can gain games on your opponent and produce more stats. anyone can win that way.

I guess it's fine if no rules are against it and both players have the option of doing it, still a level playing field.  But I do think teams shouldn't be allowed to do that in the playoffs.

Since it isn't against the rules, it isn't cheating, but it is definately cheap as hell.
