FWIW, randomized the worlds I don’t think generates any additional randomness per se. superfluous step.

Yeah I guess you’re right.

DH, this is probably a good opportunity to just throw away the last set of numbers and rerun it...right?



(but yeah I’ll just do the 1-24 next time unless DH wants me to do the 1-5 too)

and risk getting you or ben my division twice? no way haha

Alright dh, start chugging the wine and let's get the ranking going. It's my wife's night so she's asleep off her ****** rum, I'm still going and it's too late to switch to anything else.

i got caught up with some other stuff...but the wine has been flowing now and i got about 10 of them done...gonna do a few more before i call it a night

ill do yours now

i can post the ones ive done but i wanted to wait until i had them ranked(which i dont)

My takeaway from season 1: Don't just focus on efficiency. This is uncapped, so you need to load up on the secondary stuff like defense, assists, rebounding, whatever you can get your hands on.

My takeaway from season 2: Stop trying to get so many guys that have 5 good seasons. You aren't ever going to have more than like a 7-9 man rotation. Try and get as many star seasons as you can, even if that means drafting dudes in the 3rd - 8th round with only like 2-3 elite seasons and the rest are ****. The more sum elite seasons the better.

I kind of overreacted to some of the decisions I made last season and I think they resulted in less sever, but still flawed decision making this go around.

Stop trying to get so many guys that have 5 good seasons.

This is pretty sound advice past the second or third round. I took Lucas in the 4th - a guy with more than six nice seasons to choose from - and he'll be starting on exactly 2 of my teams and playing less than half the game on the other three. Same thing with Bridges in the 6th. It was between him & Kermit, but Bridges had more minutes over more seasons, so I went that direction. I could have had Kermit's 2 or 3 really nice seasons instead of Bridges 2 nice seasons starting and the depth would have largely been the same.

But it sure felt right at the time.

I think World 2 pacific looks like my toughest division. Bds’s 12-13 Lebron team, tough-looking teams from mptrey and albi, plus robusk. Jp’s team in that division looks like one of his weaker ones but otherwise gonna be a tough one, methinks.

12-13 LeBron + best Marvin Williams season + best Ewing + best Capela

Looks like it should be his best team going against one of my worst. I am not going to pour through his teams but based on the posts I saw quoted, could be his one team that is not at a severe rebounding deficit. I certainly am not excited to be in the same division as it.

World 3
Tom Boerwinkle vs The WORLD
IMO this guy is very important to this team's success. Interested to see how lines shake out.
World 4
Magic Johnson vs Derek Harper 80D, Don Buse 90D, Alvin Robertson 90D
Don't know of many teams running 5 guys 80-90 D PG-SF (PG-PF at times with Rodman)

Pex Matchups to Watch
World 1
WHY?! WHY?! Why change Larry Nance jr to Larry Nance in 19-20. Thanks, I hate it.
I wanted to avoid Pex and we "dodged" a bullet with these (still impressive)Wade/KG/ Butler/Donyell seasons.
World 4
I still feel like it could be worse for me. I have to think Pex wins a ring in 2, 3, or 5. I don't think this team has enough to win World 4, but it should take our lunch routinely.

Technical question: if I block a shot, the other team could OReb it, right? Does the SIM do that or do I automatically get the ball?
