Crazy Fun League (2 of 24) Topic

The world has gone mad and now there is a league to make it seem normal but its sheer absurdity. I present the Crazy League. What is it you ask? Here are the rules:
  • 50 Mil Cap
  • No Clones or non-carbon life forms (take that AI)
  • You must have only one player from the following 8 salary ranges:
> 9 mil
8-9 mil
7-8 mil
6-7 mil
5-6 mil
4-5 mil
3-4 mil
2-3 mil

For all of the ranges the rule will be that the salary must start with the same number as the low end of the range. For example 2-3 million would be 2,000,000 - 2,999,999.

Those 8 players must also fall into one of these buckets but none of the others:
> 90 defense
> 60% EFG
> 15% OReb
> 25% DReb
> 25% Ast
> 3.49% Blk
> 2.49% Stl
> 40% 3s

The remaining 4 players will be scrubs and have to abide by all of the limits and be < 2 mil in salary.

All % limits are based on raw numbers. To have a valid team you will have to set filters to make sure that all of your players are below or equal to each threshold except for the one. That means that can't have have one player above 90 def, one above 40% on 3s, etc. The trick is to find the best combo of salary and statistical exception while staying under the cap.

When you submit your team I will need a sitemail that has the following information:
Salary Range - Player Name - Category
  • 9 mil - Julius Erving - Defense
  • 8 mil - Giannis - EFG%
  • ...
  • 2 mil - Jose Calderon - Assists
  • Scrubs - Names (1-4)
It's a challenge but it will keep your mind off of reality for a while. I hope you accept the challenge.

Can you clarify some things?

are your buckets greater than or equal to?

are the EFG and 3P% raw or # normalized?

the rules don’t allow the use of anyone with a salary between $500K and 1,999,999. That’s quite a big gap, could you consider modifying the rule about our last four players to be any players under $2M that still fits under the $50M cap?

Good points chewy - I'll adjust the rules and clarify better.
