Bigs
Abraham Joum Maker Bol - Good shooting stretch big. Solid shot-blocker with good post defense. Slightly above average rebounder. Handles are so-so. Needs to hit the weights.
Sam Funches - Decent scorer inside and outside. Might get close to a steal and block a game. Serviceable post...
Congrats to Hoff and the Mavs on winning a well deserved title and Wes and the Bullets for getting the #1 overall pick. With that, the offseason is upon us and is always one of the more exciting parts of the sim world. People try to re-haul rosters to aim to get better in the future, which...
I'm poor and need RP so Jarred Vanderbilt can be strong. Since Orlando likely won't have the use of our MLE and there's no nibbles on the trade front, I figured why not give the league some fun content of guys that I think are intriguing FA targets that could break out in a new situation. The rules...
In case you missed it, a couple weeks ago I posted this article ranking SGs by Points Gained (TRADEMARK), which some of you seemed to like. I also implied that I would post more of them, but then a few things happened I didn't adequately plan for. The first is that you all traded some of those...
Here we are again, no its not JWoo or Joe, its Clint w/ another bullshit, ill-informed draft article. At least its better than my ADHD ass moving around too much on a podcast to where it sounds like im whispering random shit.
Saddened by my loss to the Suns (and ruining any shot of introducing...
Part two, better known as PART USTED, so that all these lovely answers don’t get buried in one long post. Steven “Running Outside, Living Inside” Griffin-Davis with the rest:
Who is the swaggiest SLN player in league history?
BOBAN MARJANOVIC 2
HAKEEM OLAJUWON 2
LOU WILLIAMS 2
By Steven “Stephen” Griffin-Davis, special to SLN Media
Two years, 23 or so simulated seasons and one class-action lawsuit later, I asked the league’s general management a few questions. Here are our results:
Which GM has evolved/grown the most since the inception of the league? EAST
I just traded away a whole bunch of RP so I figured I might as well get some back and kickstart a few ideas around the league. This is another installment of my woefully under-RP'd series where I propose fake trades...that should happen. One time I proposed a trade that turned the Knicks into a...
Jordan: Oh, hell fucking yeah I’m bringing meme of the year back
That's right, folks! You might not have asked for it, it may be the middle of the season, but here I am, shoving yet another installment of Meme of the Year in your faces. You may be...
It's been a fun one so far, with many strong contenders in the mix and the standings constantly shifting around. Here's a look at where teams stand through Day 85 of the 2018 SLN Season:
TANKR TIERS:
IT'S THEIR YEAR - This team has the best point differential, the most rebounds, the best...
Feel free to flame me and let me know where i missed in the comments. Last time Clack was disrespected over Arenas. Who did i fade to the shadow realm this time?

Okay context - I have for a while now wanted to try to create a single metric that captures a player’s impact across all aspects of the game. In the past, I’ve used points per possession to judge a player's offensive effectiveness, and then kind of squinted at the defensive and rebounding grades...
Proposing a Democratic System for Changing League Rules
Note: For context for this poll, please read this post to the end!
One of the beautiful things about this league is that it’s a living entity. Rosters are shifting, player composition is shifting, the metagame is shifting. Even the...
Welcome back gents! 2 years of SLN, two full decades of seasons… and it’s still getting dusty with nostalgia over here in the historian’s office. Its time for another All Time SLN team matchup. Last October, Jayant and I got on separate pod teams comprised of fellow GMs and drafted our super teams....
A TREE IS PLANTED:
As we all well know, Skillz played this game from the early years of junior high, back when Geocities were a thing (still have absolutely zero idea what these are but Ashes talks about them like they are prehistoric). Skillz had a...

How Valuable are Your Picks? - A Two Year Anniversary Review
Yo! Back again with a brand new edition… after the 2009 draft I posted an article that broke down how valuable other teams picks are that are not yours!
Note: I tried to exclude all trade ups / backs or picks for player trades after...
2018 181 Rockets Sign C Eddy Curry for $15,000,000 over one year.
Grade: A
Eddy comes back home with his tail between his legs and $15 million smackeroos in his bank account. Nice signing for Nolan to devalue his pick a bit and give himself a better...

Reward Camps happen right before TC and are inputted manually by ashes. We're getting this thread posted now so people can start thinking about how they want to spend their camps.
Reminders:
You should aim to have these posted 1-2 days after the draft is completed. If you're not in the playoffs,...
Had a great first year in Long Island with gobs of 3&D potential - but we’ll likely go in a different direction in that spot. Open to moving, would be willing to make a lateral move for a bigger or smaller player. If you’re looking for this type in 2027 draft and can’t snag, feel free to reach out!
