Hey all, today is Amelia's 5th birthday! I'll be spending time with her and the family today, so don't expect a sim today (Maybe late tonight after the day is over)
In honor of today, take a +5 Potential to one of your players! Post them here!
I was avoiding doing my job today and was curious about just how bad the rebounding situation is right now — everyone is griping about there not being enough quality bigs to go around, I wanted to look at that theory a little bit and just list out the top rebounding letter grades and think about...
Here we are once again! Bored on a plane!!! You had to know this was coming when I said I was at the airport on the podcast. Somehow I ended this on exactly 10 by accident!
It's Day 60 and a lot of trades have already happened. Fun. Let's not stop there. I stopped short of doing fake trades but cooked up a fun list of guys who I think should very obviously get traded at some point in the not-too-far future.
| Name | Possessions Used | Total Points | Raw PPP | Points Gained Offense | Points Gained Defense | D Points Gained Per Min | Total Points Gained | Points Gained per Minute | Total Points Gained per Game |...
I RFA'd Luka this offseason, my first RFA tag since I tagged Tony Parker. That made me wonder how those RFAs would stack up against other teams' RFA tags over the years. I thought it'd be fun to put together a fake 2v2 tournament, with each team comprising of the best two RFA tags...
this is will update every four hours: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Y4JMjp7ju0Zdtas6wRJei_SbgQ3oe-fU0RWTY1lAbrw/edit?gid=2035459265#gid=2035459265
it will overwrite season to season, so if someone pings me before the next season starts, i can make a standalone copy so there is a historical view...
Okay so last year I did that tiers article which was largely based on preseason stats with a little bit of my own judgement layered in. I'd call the stat part directionally correct, but I presented it as more of an editorial than I intended. This year I want to let you all reach your own...
TL; DR: More free RP for a quick post! Prob wait til after FA to fill it out.
In addition to Team Awards, GMs can earn a quick and dirty 125RP by replying in this thread and filling out the below questionnaire - not required, but why not? Copy down the questions in a reply post and fill 'em out....
Strengths: Elite vision sees plays before they happen, he does. Takes good care of the ball, steal from him, you cannot. Inside and outside scoring, a solid mix he has.
Weaknesses : Size, a limitation it can be. Bulk up,...
Every year, every GM's got his studs and it's duds, his craftiest moves and most embarrassing flops. For 75RPs, fill out the answers to the following questions and post it in the thread - think of these as your...
In SLOR, Nav created a statistic used to evaluate players' efficiency called PISTOL, named after Pistol Pete Maravich, who was an absolute wagon. The statistic is simple: Points / (FGA + TOs). The intended use is to understand which players generate the most points out of their used possessions. It...
Oldie article and hopefully goodie: a quick exercise power ranking the free agents listed at Center and Power Forward. A quick story before we start - besides a couple hot dogs, this article filled a very hungover train ride back from Boston this afternoon. When getting off, the guy ahead of me...
In desperate need of RP and thought to put some historian powers to good use by finally writing this type of article after teasing it a few times seasons ago. I am going to go thru the stacked 2023 retiring class and rank and tier all 22 retirees from worst to best. Let’s get this ride started....
Greetings friends — at long last I've found a pocket of time to make some content this week.
Going to dive into my favorite thing — the draft. Not going to grade picks because I think draft grades are stupid. But this was a cool draft and it's fun to dig in a little more on these players! Here's...
So you’ve decided it’s time to trade your star…let’s sit down and have a chat about it. I went back and looked at some major blockbusters and how they’ve aged so you don’t have to. In order to give things appropriate time to develop, the first season trades will be looked at from were from the end...
Hey everyone - super quick article comin at ya after I spent some time at my job working poring over the team statistics page. Tried to pull out some numbers that I thought were interesting, along with some storylines from this season (don't worry, no Bulls talk in this one).
Greg Oden has had an illustrious career. He was selected #2 in the 2007 draft by Avu, Former GM of the Detroit Pistons. He was packed with potential, got up to A- inside, A- defense and A rebounding. In his 10-year prime, Oden was consistently atop the...
We already podded about this, but I decided to smush together the preseason stats , along with the win projections of those of you kind enough to get them in already, to build a simple rating system and win projections for this season. If you disagree with these rankings, that's totally fine, I do...
Currently stuck on plane to Jackson Hole with a broken TV in my seat, so figured I’d farm a little RP instead of rawdogging a 4 hour flight staring at the back of the seat in front of me (props to anyone who has successfully done this). Also, for all those...

Trying to acquire more RP and and hopefully maybe an FRP before the deadline and have guys who can still ball. Most notable guys below:
King James: Can still ball with the best of them and can be plugged in at any position for a contender (aside from SG) to help you bring home the chip this year....
