Just observing again

TMac/Dragic/Kevin Johnson + Bosh is a really fun run n gun team

My backcourt is made up of fairly standard draft league picks that have been pushed out by the influx of modern players. Feeling pretty good about KJ coming off the bench.

I think this is a fun league. Reminds me of a decade draft league. It probably wasn’t the best idea in retrospect, but I won the 52 with McGrady and Red Robbins on my team one season.

so did anyone else think KJ would be going in the 2nd?

i almost took him at the 2/3 turn...feels like crazy value where he went

taking a risk with the booker/harper starting backcourt...ill be just under 50% ast in the starting lineup - not something im used to

Since albiband lives in Italy, he usually picks around 2am EST. This is the perfect opportunity for those right after albi like ronsouth and PBandJ to make a 1-3 name proxy list and send it to a few trustworthy owners. This way, we can keep the draft moving instead of waiting for Tuesday morning to make a pick.

I have PB's proxy. Whoever commented about plugging holes was right on the money. Going to be interesting to see what phase of the game is sacrificed leads to winning. Makes this a really fun draft and that is coming from someone who botched 2 drafts in a row.

Just looking at the TO situation for many teams. Do you think a higher steal % has more impact against high TO offenses or is it constant?

I feel the most interesting decision for this league is high usage scoring efficiency vs defense vs turnovers. It's virtually impossible to be good at all 3.

Yeah this next pick hurts me. My efg is quickly dropping as I try to fix my defense. Nothing is going right.

Anyone have access the player data in a database format? I'm working on a new engine and I need some test data.

I have as sqlite and parquet but I am not just going to hand over my data. I can give you a sample dataset though.

Just wondering do we have an official scorekeeper yet? If nobody else is I could do it once the first title is over. Maybe update once a week. It would be by hand though.

here if anyone can make a better version feel free I won’t be offended. If not I’m happy to update this at least once a week. I’ll put the link on page 1 as well

Thanks!

nice job steelers!

Yep you’re welcome. Figured we’d get this started with the third league starting up and the first two in playoff mode.

still have 7 people who could get the 6 team playoff bonus.
