A FEW RULES FOR THE LEAGUE:
1) Run an offense. Learn your team. Learn what plays puts your players in the best position to succeed. Running into the paint and kicking out is not an offense. Flinging the ball looking to fastbreak every time you touch the ball is not an offense. We do expect you to run plays at least 50% of the time. This can even consist of PNR and post-up's as that is the majority of what the league does anyways. What we don't want is spread the floor and iso every time down. For those like me who are inexperienced with the game, up on the d-pad runs quick plays which will help you get room to score offensively until you get better at calling plays.
2) Points in the Paint. Your points in the paint should not exceed 50% of your team's total. If you're mixing up your shot selection this shouldn't be an issue. Fast break and second chance points will be deducted from this total. We are not strict on this as obviously if you are playing against someone who is giving you the drive or can not stay in front of you then you take what the defense gives you and from game to game it might vary. But we do expect to look at the shot chart and see some sort of balance with mid range and 3 pt shots mixed in. You shouldn't have 70 pip every game you play. Just play SIM.
3) Riding Stars. It's ok to get your stars involved but shot/scoring distribution should be evenly spread. The 5 year NBA average for FGA one player takes is 22 per game -- thats not including shots the player was fouled on. If we can keep our shot attempts around that number, no one can complain about gunning with stars. If the game goes into overtime or the player is clearly on fire, this rule is lifted. Obviously if a guy is hot you feed him, and of course there might be games where someone shoots over 30x but the AVERAGE over a period and number of games should not exceed 30 shots per game.
4) 3 point attempts. The 5 year NBA average for team attempts is 27 per game for a team. Lets keep it around those numbers. We will cap it at 36 attempts per game (9 per quarter), but If the game goes to overtime or a player gets hot you may exceed the max. Obviously it's a game by game thing and really we are looking at your average 3 pt attempts for a season to be around the 27 attempts mark and not 36 per game.
5) Rotation. Players may only play their primary or secondary positions. Starters must sit at some point in the game -- starters are to average no more than 43 minutes per game.
6) On Ball Defense. You can play on ball or off ball. We have no rules here. To each their own. We don't want 30 teams who all play the same.
7) Zone defense. Should be used sparingly, not as a base. Once you are in the zone you must control the player closest to the ball.
8) Pressing/Traps. Are only allowed with 4 minutes or less left in the 4th quarter. The offensive team is allowed to push the tempo as much as they'd like in this scenario.
9) No trades with AI teams, only player controlled teams can submit trade requests
I took these rules from another league so we can totally adjust them if needed later on.
If you are interested, Please post in this thread with your Xbox One GT and your team desired.
I also plan to utilize GroupMe as a communications app for those who would like to join. If you would like to join this group, please PM me your email address and download the GroupMe App.
THE PLAN IS TO START THE LEAGUE ASAP.
According to my research, the devs stated the following when referring to the Online MyLeague Mode:
So I suppose it will be a single season with another season after with the same teams.
We can also discuss doing the 2 seasons then maybe doing a fantasy draft season.
