This league is just like Basketball GM, except for 2 differences: You can play it with other people as opposing GMs, and you can use a roster with real NBA players! These make the league very fun as you get to make realistic trades with other GMs, sign free agents while competing with other real teams, and draft with real teams! If you are ever confused, just make a post and they will give you more information and help you out!

PAB
Discord: https://discord.gg/8QjWAZFXbr
PAB is a Basketball GM multiplayer league built around one idea: ethical hoops. Real rosters, real trades, and a league office that treats fundamentals like law. Everyone starts from scratch; parity is the point: the gap between the best and tenth-best team shrinks every year, so any GM can build a contender. Free agency is roleplay-driven: write and vie against other GMs to sell stars on your vision. Reporters Kent Brockman and Clark Kent cover dynasties, rivalries, and takeovers, while our custom Discord bot handles trades, drafts, rosters, and analytics. Not everyone succeeds. Do YOU have what it takes?
