Title: In-season tournament
Post by: Interpaga on August 18, 2023, 05:52:11 AM
Hi, would you be interested in introducing a in-season tournament in CCD like in real-life NBA? I can take care of it with a dedicated section here, if Billy agrees.
No additional activity will be required to the owners, we can use lineups and stats of the teams in Fantrax.
To let the tournament be more appealing for rebuilding teams, we can also consider to set up the draw or adjust the stats calculation to facilitate rebuilding teams.
Are you interested (suggestions are accepted)?

This is the very basic proposal.

Knockout tournament lasting only 5 weeks from November to mid-December.

Round 1. The matchups are based on previous season regular season final rankings. Clippers (ranked 30 last year) and Raptors (ranked 29) will receive a bye in the first round. The other matchups will be:
#28 - #27, #26 - #25, ..., #2 - #1

Round 2. #30 - #29, winner #28 - #27 against winner #26 - #25,..., winner #4 - #3 against winner #2 - #1

Then quarter finals, semifinals and final with the same scheme.

Scoring method is the same of the standard league apart that the home team (in each matchup, the team that ranked worse last year) gets 1 additional point and if the matchup ends in a tie (5-5) home team will advance.

Scoring for each team in the 5 rounds will simply be taken by our standard league on Fantrax (therefore no additional activity is required to the owners for this tournament) and reported here in the tournament section

The in-season tournament proposal seems to have not gained much traction.
Despite this, we would try to continue with the project at least for this season (taking also into account that Billy is in favor of it).

The tournament will start in the first week of November (NBA week 3) and the semifinals will be in NBA week 6. The final will take place in week 8 (mid-December). There will be no matchups during the week of the real life NBA in-season tournament finals (NBA week 7).
We will soon publish all the matchups of the first round
