 Are we a Custom League? If so can we add another bench spot in place of IR? I'm used to having IR in our NFL league, it is nice to have the flexibility of keeping your roster intact in spite of injuries. I don't want to have to drop A Stoudamire but not having the flexibility of choosing players with games is hurting me. I think other teams will be put in similar situations when a star player gets a month long injury.

Here is what the http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/hoops/hoops-14.html page says about it:
Quote:
No, there is no IL spot in Yahoo! Sports Fantasy NBA rosters.
The NBA no longer utilizes an Injured List (IL). Instead, real teams designate certain players as "inactive" just prior to game time. This designation means that a player is on the team's roster but not eligible to play in the game for which they are listed.

NBA teams are now required to carry at least 13 players, but no more than 15. Twelve of these players must be active, meaning that from one to three players must be inactive for any given game. The inactive list may include, but is not limited to injured players.

As a result of these official changes, the IL option has been removed from the fantasy game. If you wish to replace an injured player in your starting lineup, you must place him on your bench or drop him to waivers. Custom League commissioners may choose to add another bench spot to rosters when they configure their league if they deem it appropriate to offer additional flexibility to league managers.

Well it's unfortunate u have that situation now, but we're all playing under the no IR rules...and since that's how the NBA works now that what we should mimic.
