neutral moken : Hi Ed. Sorry - don't fantasy leagues/teams those competitions where you have a budget to choose/'buy' the players you expect to perform best during the league? Gotcha - thanks for the explanation then. :O)

Hi Álvaro - it used to be as you say, but it has spread a lot now to the point where last week the new owner of Manchester City chose his "fantasy eleven", which was what gave me the idea...

All-(nombre de la liga) First Team

Hola Teresa,

Así al menos lo llama la NBA:

All-NBA First Team.

Desconozco el motivo, pero aún no han publicado en su web el del 2008; sin embargo, sí que figura el del 2007:

http://www.nba.com/news/allnba_070510.html

Te copio también el enlace de los premios del 2008, donde verás que "All-NBA Team" figura aún en blanco:

http://www.nba.com/awards2008/

Creo que procede incluir "First" porque hablamos de sólo 5 jugadores y no de teóricos suplentes.

Suerte,

Álvaro :O)

Ideal starting lineup (fantasy starting lineup, better)

The "starting" lineup is, of course, the first five players who are on the court at the start of the game. I like "fantasy starting lineup" as an option, because it implies that it probably would never happen, but if it did, it would be a killer game! "Fantasy Roster" could also be used, but The 5 starting players, the starting lineup, refers directly to the FIVE players in your "quinteto". Hope this helps!

Ok, the adjective you use (see comment below) is up to you. I'll just stick with the fact that "starting lineup", "starters", or perhaps even "starting roster"... are the common terms for those first five that hit the court.

neutral moken : Hi Melssa: not sure regarding the 'fantasy' concept. As far as I'm aware it's used in the sense I described to Edward above. :O)

I disagree. I realize it is used in contexts such as "fantasy football league","fantasy team", etc. But we're not talking about a whole team, but the "starting five", the 'quinteto'. 'Fantasy' OR 'ideal' goes well with what the context has to offer.

neutral Henry Hinds : Sí procede, aunque hay que tomar en cuenta que algunos "all-star teams" son "ideales" y otros realmente se integran y juegan.
