22 Million Big Fish League - DEAD Topic

I will say that the 'wilt stands alone' strategy often seems to have very mixed results. Not going much further than that.

Well dh555 I would look up the SIM FAQs regarding usage before building a team with Wilt. Wilt's usage, if you are at around 100 total with all of your other players, won't change. That means that Wilt will only take around %35 to %40 of the shots so how weak are the other players who will be shooting the ball %65 to %60 of the time??? Also what happens when your total usage falls well below 100??? This league can be a ball buster. Don't want you to get discouraged because we need all the solid owners as we can get in the NBA SIM.

Actually, you dopn't need to worry about useage all that much with that wilt, mainly efficiency. A: He plays 48 minutes a game and b: Has over a 32.5 Useage, meaning that you can put ANY four other players with him and avoid the team penalty, although the individual overuseage penalty might apply to some of those players.

32.5 useage+ gets you 8 out of the ten points you need. THe lowest useage category (under 13.7) is .5 points. So you get four players at .5 points plus wilt's 8 and you have ten.

thanks fellas.....i think im gonna go for a more balanced team first and if the league doesnt fill(which seems likely) and we do 2cnd teams ill roll the dice with a wilt team...either way this will be a fun challenge...building a roster is the best part of this game and these theme leagues only make it better

just a thought.....it seems like moses would be the best player to build around...what if we banned moses from being a big fish so he wont be used by almost every team...i think that would help the variety of the big fishes

nah - no bans. and moses' usage makes him tough to work w/in this type of league.

people can sign up for second teams if they desire to do so.
9/21/2009 5:56 PM
I am going to take my name out of the hat for this one. Sorry
9/21/2009 6:51 PM
Then give me a second if it helps move things along.

What about MOses's usage?

All eligible seasons are well over 20%. some approach thirty percent. By no means is he a god, but I think you coudl build a successful team around several versions of him in this..

Think you need a high usage for your big fish - just my personal opinion. 25-28 ain't gonna cut it.

IMO, once u get up to 27.2%, it won't make a difference (going higher than 27.2%) unless ur >=32.5%
9/22/2009 5:57 PM
My thought as well.
9/23/2009 10:26 AM
dually noted, einsteins.

this league isn't going to fill...
9/24/2009 2:00 PM
Would anybody else be willing to take 2 teams???
9/24/2009 10:08 PM
I'm in.
