VOTE NOW! The Tournament is back!

[brewcity77]

I think a) we need enough votes to get in tournament and b) if I remember correctly the GM of some of the leading vote getters can put an additional player on roster

You need enough votes to be in the top-9 of your region to automatically qualify. 6 at-large teams will be added provided they have 100+ votes and 7 or more players. Then there will be 4 teams that get in (1 per region) through a play-in.

Last year, teams that went over 2,000 votes were able to add a "ringer", which is any player in the world. They would be added the second weekend, or the Super 16 round.

Each team is allowed 9 players provided they are on the roster by June 1, but can add more if they spend money after. $1,000 per player before the start of the tournament, and it escalates if they are added later.

Hmm any chance Wade is retiring this year and wants one last time in a Marquette uniform?

Make your free throws. Or keep Dwight Howard and Deandre Jordan off the floor, real simple. If god forbid they decide to enact this mind numbingly stupid idea, keep it to the crap product that is the NBA. Dont touch the college game.

This rule has nothing to do with hitting free throws. it's so that we dont sit and watch 3 minutes of free throw practice in 20 minutes.

The rule has some interesting design to it, but I'm not sure if I want to see it either.

Unless by "cleaner", you mean player payments are out in the open, I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with you there Bob.
The game itself is not cleaner.

You mistake ref freedom in the regular season for unclean play. The nba is about entertainment, they bend the rules quite a bit to allow for that.

I hate the NBA game, but I don't lie to myself by saying the college game looks prettier.

Does Trent Lockett find the arena this time?

[jsglow]

I really hope they lean on Vander this year but my guess is he won't want to risk injury. How about Zar?

12 and 5 in the dleague he's not exactly the stud he was back in college.

Does anyone else think it's a little sad that the guy in the article is a genius and he's devoted "most of his free time since 2004" to speeding up the last 2 minutes of basketball games?

We need to get Buycks in on this again

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Something tells me Katin would be a good fit for this type of tournament.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Agreed, but my guess is he and JJJ will be more focused on trying to find a real opportunity. Vegas league if they get invited.
