Is this how you guys do scoring every year? This is the weirdest scoring I've ever seen.
Pts, rbs, ast, blk, stl all worth the same...
Negative points for ejections, flagrants, techs?
Team wins I don't mind... but man this is some pretty wacky scoring.
I've ran the league with this kind of scoring for probably 6-10 times (all through d2jsp) over the years.
In terms of these settings vs standard scoring - it's roughly about 10-15% more fantasy points realistically.
I can't remember if you've been in these leagues before but nothing really stands out once you're plugging away.
The trickiest thing was actually honing in on the roster spots and eligibilities.
Since most fantasy formats are 10-12 managers (not 30 ish like real NBA) there is often a lot of talent available on waiver wire.
So expanding the roster a bit without being too excessive and being creative (but not bottle-necking) with eligibilities took me a couple seasons to figure out early on, years ago.
The team wins FPG, is another example of trying to give as much power to the managers as possible.
Boris Diaw was always a fringe waiver wire guy, but given he was on the Suns and Spurs (who won a lot) he was usually worth a pick-up.

It'll be an interesting season for sure, not what I'm used to. Big men will be less valuable it looks like.
Though there are bonus FPTs for made threes, there is also bonus FPTs for OREBs and double-doubles (as well as triple-doubles.)
And in my experience - big men are just as valuable as standard, if not more.
