I will go as low as 96% for low usage, 97% for medium usage and 98% for high usage players when it comes to playing out of position.

I am basically the same. I didn't know about the decimal points until today, though.

Awesome job chewy! I just saw today the video was posted and realized I didn't pre post my rotation putting you in a difficult spot. I listened to mine first and will then go through the whole thing. Tatum is playing one season starting at SF, AD is starting another one. Spoon is doing one. Then the other 2 will be Larry Sanders at 97% and Campbell at 98%. The back up is often Spoon and one back up is Campbell. Otherwise you nailed it.

Holiday(5):Murray(4)/Ball(1)
Tatum(4)/Murray(1):Mitchell(5)
Tatum(1)AD(1)/Spoon(1)/Campbell(1)/Sanders(1): Spoon(4)/Campbell(1)
Camby(5):DD(4)Lanier(1)
AD(4)/DD(1):Lanier(4)

Mine is pretty straight forward.

Kirilenko plays SG 3 seasons. GP2 plays 1 season. Harper plays 1 season. They each start the seasons they play there. Dame and Kobe play all the other guard minutes, usually not at the same time. Dame starts twice and Kobe three times.

SF is a combination of Birdman, Powell, Kirlenko and Eubanks. Powell and Eubanks each start once and Birdman twice and Kirilenko once.

PF is Zubac starting twice, Timelord twice and Birdman once.

Admiral starts five times. Gortat backs up PF and C.

For me, it's:

Lowry x3 / Conley x2 - I use Rozier as a backup x2, and totally hide Lowry and Conley twice each. MJ plays some minutes here too, when I need to get A Gordon his playing time at the 2.
MJ x5 - backed up by Gordon twice, and Lowry/Rozier the rest of the time.

Horford x4, R Anderson x1 - it's mostly those two but Plumlee and Gordon play just a few minutes.

Kemp x4, Plumlee x1
Whiteside x5 - Rollins mostly backs up the 5 with Plumlee and a bit of S Adams at the 4, but I package Kemp and Whiteside for 4 usage points in the one season where I get less than 6 usage points from PG/SG. Which is worth it to get 17-18 Lowry in there, imo.

Horford seasons were tough to choose but I am going with 12-13, 16-17, 17-18, 21-22 and the 13-14 partial which I am partial to and is enabled by 11-12 Ryan Anderson. Horford is playing every single minute at the 3, and so is Anderson.

I haven't had a free minute yet but am very excited for the videos.

I was thinking about Conley until i went with Gasol (I think that timing lines up idk) seems like a really strong player that just doesn’t have much rebounding.

Using different seasons from what you posted chewy’s but yes basically Iggy and wright with a sprinkle of Pierce, George and Barton and PG

George and Pierce are really it at sg.

griffin only fit at sf 4/5 seasons so I unfortunately had to play Pierce at sf some 1 year.

mel Daniels and bridges both get two seasons (I regret my bridges pick he just doesn’t have as many usable seasons as I thought, I think I was tricked by some duplicates whoops lol)

bellamy actually gets to play a big role all 5 seasons. 2 of them as a backup for Wallace.

I went with Wallace’s 5 100 d seasons. I really need it my defense is much worse than last season.

glad you liked my team! But I imagine I’ll be in the 16-24 range. Great video though I appreciate your insight as always.

I think Rob rolls his eyes every time I overdraft a guard who doesn't rebound even a little. Doesn't mean I'm gonna stop doing it!

Please trade Harden soon Daryl.

I always enjoy the Savage sentence.

The last couple of these turned out poorly for DH. LOL

you aint lying haha

thanks for the great eval video chewy

top 10 finish is generous...this feels like a boring 10-15 finish...not my best draft

curious to know how you came up with the 5 seasons for each player...one of the gilmore seasons was 500 mins!

btw gerry, you gonna let chewy talk about mark price like that? stand up for your man!

the 3 missing slackers have been sitemailed...hopefully we can get things going by tomorrow night

I will be in tonight. I was planning on last night but got home and had some real life issues to clean up. I will have time this evening to finish up.

I got lazy with my spreadsheet and you found one of the flaws. I don’t think the 500 min season is in his top 5, my pivot table just double counted a split season so it showed up. In general, I have a formula to calculate a relative value and then I try to show the 5 highest scores.

The trick to resolve that is to add an index column and add it as a lower row under seasons in the pivot table. Then for the index you value filter Top N, and select Top 1 and the value is the column you want to sort by. I can show you if that explanation doesn’t make sense.
