    u forgot rebounds, there was 9 categories, i remember all those 5 - 4 scores :x
    9 categories, just like last season is alright
    the only thing i would like to change is the second "C" for an "Utilities" just like ESPN
    and please dont increase bench size because last year it was already so hard to find a decent player every week, with an increased bench size, you wont see any pick ups and waiver, only trades between players ......

    I agree with the 2 starting centers. I rather only have 1. It's hard enough to find good centers, not to mention they are the most injury prone players <_<

    do u know not realize how repetitive the spreads where because of this?

    Because of the way the games are played and nature of the stats, the outcome were exactly how you portrayed it to be.

    Now if you had more categories that would be breakers. Maybe oboards, fouls or something.

    there isnt any other categories u could really add
    fouls is not a really good categories because when a game is close between 2 teams and near the end of 4th quarter, teams use fouls to stop the clock
    if u want to add more categories, it must be 2 in order to have 11 categories, to have 6 - 5, so there is a winner but at the same time with 11 categories, if u ever lose 11 - 0, its like impossible to come back, the gap is huge

    i don't think anyone would lose with that large of a margin...

    Maybe missed freethrow or freethrow%

    It is all perspective. I see it as a strategy, in that certain guys might perform well but

    They are there to create more spread. I just feel like a change over from the previous year is good.

    Ya it does. It has all of them lol. I just find ESPN's layout more simple too. Also I won't have to manage 2 leagues in 2 different sites. haha. ;)

    If you want I could take some screen shots of my league from last year lol

    @More categories, I don't think you can add anything else. FTM and Fouls would be much more dependent on game situations then compared to the other stats. And let's be honest with ourselves here, only a select group of players would be of any use in the O-Board category. I wouldn't be surprised if only 1 person won that category for the whole season.

    Also, if you would all pass on CP3 during draft night then I would be very thankful :)
