How often do people go way over the amount of minutes needed in this league? I feel like I under budgeted heavily.

This is only my second go around at this cap... last season I think it was a mixed bag. I think most of the teams that were good were right around the normal amount of minutes.

PG: Wade/McMillan
SG: Oladipo/Wade
SF: AK47/Edge
PF: Sanders/Edge
C: Moses

Nice to have Wade fall to me in the 2nd. I won this league the season I took him 12th overall. Good luck, fellas.

Rondo/
Klay/Marques
Rodman/
Vucevic/Marques
?/O’Quinn/Noel

Should be fun.

Conley/Beverley/Oscar
Oscar/Beverley
Nance/Oscar
KAT/Boozer
Jordan?

no idea what I'm doing, havent really been able to keep up

Magic/Ward
Allen/Ward
Bird/?
Noah/Gadzurik
Daniels/Gadzuric

Bird should have nice season.

PG: Calderon/???
SG: George/Mullin
SF: Durant/George
PF: Favors/Varejao
C: Mutombo/???

I like it, which means it probably won’t work. Good efficiency, good D. Offensive rebounding will be an issue.

How often do people go way over the amount of minutes needed in this league? I feel like I under budgeted heavily.

It's almost impossible to use the whole cap and be around 19600 minutes, unless you have overspent on usage and/or have a lot of high-minute players (the more minutes, the higher the cost per minute). I usually end up around 20200 or so.

Player	Position	Usage%	eFG%	OReb%	DReb%	Ast%	Def	MPG
James Harden 18-19	PG	40.5	54.1	2.3	16.5	25.2	76	35
Alvin Robertson 85-86	SG	20.9	51.8	7.2	12.2	17.1	91	35
Horace Grant 91-92	SF/PF?	15.5	57.8	13.5	17.1	8.3	78	35
Marcus Camby 07-08	PF	13.2	45.5	9	29.7	11.4	91	34
Bob Lanier 73-74	C	24	51.4	8.6	25.3	12.9	84	37
George Hill 14-15	PG/SG	23.8	54.1	2.0	12.6	23.0	57	15
Carey Scurry 86-87	SG	19.1	50.6	12.6	13.3	8.6	100	9

Drafting Harden early was something I didn't want to do (I wanted Chris Paul) but I made it work I think. Could have drafted someone else I suppose but I have a method to drafting that has served me semi-well and I am not gonna change it until it stops working.

I am fairly shocked by some of the players still on the board.

This is good news to hear. My rough draft of my team is at 20,200 right now with not much money left over. I'm usually in leagues with a lower cap where anything over 19,400 makes me nervous so I may be in a better spot than I anticipated.

My team is going to have an absolutely stupid amount of usage on the floor for the 10 minutes a game when Embiid and A. Davis share the floor. It should be within a reasonable amount the other 38 minutes.

The team was a massive departure from my usual team building. I tend to carry less usage than most owners... somewhere between 12-13 points and between 98 and 105%. It usually lets me focus my money on efficiency. But this cap is so absurdly high that I really don't even know how to build around it.

The ODL 47M cap is ideal but it is fun to have a larger cap to build with. In my fantasy land we would have a 47M option and a 50M option. 52 is really high... but this league has been running well and popular for a long time.

We recently did a spin on a 49M draft league, but with an automated draft using everyone's pre-draft rankings. People should check it out if we do it again!

Yes, LTB lots of good players left on the board . It's awesome that we are under the new draft rules since dh555 took over. Under the old kfunk draft rules the league was alot tougher IMO.

Damn!
Mine too.
I'll get it done when I can figure it out.
