Forum News!

Fantasy Basketball

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce a familiar face (from the DetNews) to our staff team ranks.

jdmiser is our official fantasy guru, and the first of what I hope to be several featured article writers.

Known best for his inside connections at the Joe Dumars Fieldhouse, Dime Magazine fantasy reporting and diligent posting with perfect English syntax (the unwilling architect of the IRREGARDLESS revolution), jdmiser is another great person to have around, and one who will help keep things moving in a progressive manner at PistonsForum.com.

If you have any questions about trade proposals, free-agency acquisitions or general fantasy basketball help, please feel free to send your inquiries to fantasyhoops@pistonsforum.com. The best questions will be answered publicly for all to read (on this board) so be sure to include your pf.com forum nickname and city.

Note: This is a free service jdmiser has offered to perform for the pf.com community. You must be a registered pf.com member to make use of this facility. Please keep in mind, jdmiser will not be able to answer every inquiry. Help him out by making your questions precise. Include as much info as possible to have the best chance of receiving a reply.

Forum Promotion

PF.com has engaged in sponsorship of key Pistons pages on my favorite stats site, basketball-reference.com.

You can see some of our sponsored pages here, here and here. Pages were targeted specifically towards fan demographics I would like to increase in the forum while factoring in maximum exposure vs. value.

Throughout the preseason we will also be launching some small banners that members can use to promote PF.com on their blogs and web spaces.

Forum Maintenance

We have another round of forum maintenance coming up Sunday October 2nd. Read the announcement here.

Bump for last updates to news post.

Thank you for another great season!

About only 1 week left until we don't have to only watch the lions, and tigers.

Haven't heard of anyone talking about going to the open practice tomorrow. I am driving down from Sanford and will be there early, in order to get parking and a good seat.

I am really looking forward to all the action.
