Teams have the coach they have in a given season<> Now YOU are basing things on hypotheticals.

The 750 obviously. But give me a 750 team and dalter a 700 team and he'd probably still beat me.

But if you have the 750 dalter still beats the better team then, right?

That doesn't even matter...you're still taking on a 750 and a 700, different worlds doesn't change that aspect.

Wins. Losses. Record. Margin of victory.

I am sorry, but in this case you are objectively wrong.
In real life, those have greater importance...in this game, it doesn't because all of the befores and afters don't matter as much as the rating of Team A and the rating of Team B playing in that matchup in that given night. Ranking based off of SOLID overall ratings is a viable option and that's what I'm trying to put out there....there's no other place in life that you can objectify talent like WIS has done so through its games. There's no conjecture when talent is in question here, none...all objective.
