I have consistently performed well in DDL regular seasons but I think I’ve only made the finals once in this DDL format. For someone who does pretty well in Savage, ODL, 52 draft, and BOWIS, this has become frustrating for me not to see similar success. I went back to the analytics to see what I could learn. Admittedly, I tried to see if I could recognize your past patterns or strategies. I think I picked up on it and tried to use that this draft.
It’s amazing how accurate you are in your synopsis. I was contemplating between Reed and McAdoo and actually had McAdoo ranked higher by raw numbers. I just thought the 100 D at PF/C was going to be more valuable than what I could show in a formula.
The 2nd rd pick was between Barnes and Paultz so I was comforting to see you take Paultz soon after me. It helped confirm I was on the right track for my strategy.
When you took Charlie Edge in the 3rd, I was almost ready to take him there but thought the type of PG I needed was very limited between Van Lier or Gola. Otherwise I wanted Edge.
In the 4th, I had my eye on Walton since he was at the top of my list based on value per minute, but since he only has 1153 minutes, I passed on him but was hoping he could come back to be available in rd 5.
It will be interesting to see how this draft ends up. Since you have decent assists out of your SG - C, you don’t need much out of your PG so it’s possible you already have the player you’re ultimately going to play at PG. Keep up the good work.
The Missed Picks, drafting taken players, and the overall draftexperience seems worse this time than the past drafts. Hopefully it’s just because of the holiday weekend.
