I think where you got them is around where they should go. Combining them with Shaq is a nice.

Is theyard2 doing evals this season? If he is not, I would volunteer to do them again. He gets first crack at it of course as he eviscerated me in the finals, but I enjoyed doing them last time.

yard should still have to do them, but no one will mind if you do some as well...multiple owners have done it in the past...a lot of evaluating and predicting in the forum always makes the season better

go 4 it, ben!

meanwhile I just picked up two dudes who were picked 25-26 in the last ODL draft - am I missing something? why did they fall so quickly?

sometimes you just get lucky...thats an awesome frontcourt

agreed, the more the merrier - I wish everyone threw in their 2 cents so I could learn all the secrets

I would love to do evals!! Can you sitemail me when you guys get close to the end of the draft?

A little early for Leonard but he really stretches a budget. Besides I had an extra pick in the 3rd.

Brand\Grant\Love\Leonard. Never been so front court centric......

Of course all those assists and 3's GREATLY expand the universe of Point Guards.

just noticed you arent even drafting haha....why arent you defending your title?

K I will be doing evals again. Any suggestions on how to improve the format from last year? I am probably going to do it the same way, but it got hard to come up with too many interesting points as the draft progressed. Any suggestions on any new sections to address?

don't pick up a happy baby! last time was as close to perfection as i have ever seen here in these forums. you called my team exactly right... to lose in the conference finals to yard. haha. nice call.

my 2 cents worth... not about format... it's about insight coupled with the time to do evals properly. but you know that already.

I am testing a hypothesis with this team- if you are aiming for 40% Oreb, 100% Dreb, 70% assists and as far above 50 % efg as you can manage (reasonable targets for an ODL budget)  with as near as possible to 20 % usage per starter and overall 33% perimeter\mid range\paint as you can manage, in any category do you get a synergy effect vs. a wildly skewed distribution?


And if not, will my 3 point shooting give people fits anyway? My experience is that it is hard as hell to get Simmy to put up all the 3's, so I hope I am not killing myself on that. At least my fouls and turnovers are very low, but again, that seems a lot more random than it should be with the Sim.

IMO 40/100 with 70 assists and good efg% is not a remotely reasonable goal for the ODL, unless you want no defense and/or a terrible bench. (I am assuming you mean for the starting lineup, cause there's definitely no way you're maintaining those numbers with any kind of bench).
