The game just recognizes him for the babyfaced fraud that he is. He's probably shooting 45% too. Suck it cousins!!!!!!!

gently caress, SA wiped out my long reply. In order:

I simmed through March 1st but don't have time to update my spreadsheet right now.

Wiggins is rated 80 Offense, 80 defense and 52 rebounds but only achieving a 11.99 PER with 13.2 PPG, 5.5 RPG, 1.9 APG, 1.1 SPG, .7 BPG.

I don't understand how the Sweat Hogs are doing what they're doing because the individual players have tenancies to shoot lower than most players at their positions other than Curry who is waaaaaaaay above average but still getting a good number of assists on his own.

Boogie is 14th in PER with 21.92 but he's missed too many games for the game to put him on the RPG leadboard somehow.

The Lizard Kings are dead last in rebounds and blocks per game but 4th in free throw shooting and have accumulated more total fouls than anyone. They're taking hack-a-guy to a new level of success.

I think I'm being screwed by my own sim compared to the real NBA this season. Drummond is grabbing every reboungd Favors, is 10th in PER, Walker has improved his shooting a lot without back-tracking in other departments, Redick is doing very well, and Dunleavy is just doing his thing. The game is probably correct that my defense is questionable.

I figured out how to scrape stats off of Basketball Reference to a spreadsheet so I think I can start making a spreadsheet of stats for all the players before games start again.

I was trying to come up with a basic formula for draft value where I'd just divide the draft position by some cumulative number (VORP?) and spit out a rough score for each player. PER doesn't work because it's a rate stat....

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dnJ1bm4wpwrExAyu330ycM5k9L3mpBVLELqE-fzIqD4/edit?usp=sharing

I tried to do a lot of fancy things in Excel to allow me to create tabs for each team and team totals but it turns out anything other than VLookup and If Then statements are over my head at the moment.

I'd like to add those things when I get some time.

It really doesnt matter but if youre still doing this Tadashi, I actually drafted WCS to be the starting PF.

Him switching, intercepting, and blocking the poo poo out of people as a 7footer with 88 speed rating on 2k is exactly what I envisioned. If none of you have played with WCS on 2k I highly recommend it

He's not setting the lineups manually i'm pretty sure, he's letting 2k fill them out so it explains some of the weird playing times/lineups

Sorry for the confusion. The stats I posted are off of Basketball Reference and I just had it auto-fill the positions since they weren't in the draft. What I'll try to get to is getting the team tabs filled out and then I can make the sheet editable so that anybody who wants to go fix their lineups can do that.

So after about a year, how do you guys like your team in retrospect so far?

I'm still loving my starting lineup. Dennis/Hood/Gordon/Horford/Gobert.

I stole McCollum at pick 159. 159!!

Kanter is solid off of the bench for offense, still poo poo on defense but he's proven to be a really effective offensive center this year.

The rest of my team is sort of whatever. Dougie McBuckets is interesting, Cody Zeller is just a Bench Big, Nene and Varejao can just be injured enforcers and Bog Bog still hasn't came over yet.

My team didn't have a great 2nd half, relatively speaking. They were looking great in the first half, but faded a little. Booker shot .287 from 3 point range after the all-star break compared with over 40% at the break. Teams seemed to really turn up the hacking on Drummond mid-season, which affected his scoring stats. He kept getting all the rebounds, though, and playing great defense.

Derrick Favors and Kemba Walker had great years, though, and J.J. Redick just kept doing his thing. I hope Walker continues to make steps forward and Favors showing he can fill-in at center is a boon to the team.

Cole Aldrich posted a 21.3 PER (thanks to a career high in FG%) in limited time this year, so it's nice he isn't the complete waste of oxygen off the bench a lot of people perceive him to be. His blocks per 36 minutes blocks were 3.1. Patty Mills showed he's a competent point guard off the bench after being a shooting disaster in '14-'15.

If this were real life, I'd be hitting the pavement hard to find a small forward and using my guards to try to make a deal.

Stats (taken from the BR leaderboards)
Kemba Walker - 20th in ppg, 20th in spg, 13th in offensive win shares, 16th in box plus/minus, 12th in VORP
Redick - 3rd in true shooting pct, 7th in to percentage, 12th in offensive ratin
Mike Dunleavy, jr - Not Dead Yet
Favors - 18th in bpg/block percentage, 20th in PER
Drummond - 1st in rpg/rebound percentage, 6th in defensive rating, 3rd in defensive win shares

My 15th man scored 20ppg when he was unleashed this year. Hezonja is going to EXPLODE when Skiles has an ischemic attack and is replaced by Patrick Ewing. Dante Exum will be a star someday. My third center is Myles Turner. My team is cheap, versatile, and will be all time great. I'm the master of basket ball, now I can retire with dignity.

I stuck to my guns all draft on a five-year outlook, trading back to stockpile picks in the middle rounds with an eye on high-upside guys that would look like steals by 2018, so I knew this season would be rugged, but...this is dismaying by any standard.

Picks by round:
1) Nerlens Noel: Hard to judge based on the dumpster fire that was Philly 2015-16, but an uninspired year. Only 21 and a change of scenery might help. The worst PER of any first-round pick, and at this point arguably the worst value in the draft. Either I take the 5-year view here or just throw myself into traffic
2) Tobias Harris: One of the "bright spots", i.e. a dying firefly at the bottom of a Honey Bucket. Boosted by the Detroit trade. Modest improvement, most notably on D.
3) Tyreke Evans: Injuries killed Evans' year, as he only played 25 games this season.
3) Andre Iguodala: Predictably solid.
4) Julius Randle: Pretty happy here as well. Averaged a double-double in under 30 mpg at 21, even on a bad team I think this will look good a year from now.
4) Ben McLemore: The equivalent of an airballed free throw. I thought he'd turn the corner this season aaaaaand neh. Fourth-round pick here everybody, fourth (4th)
5) Josh Smith: Incredibly enough, turns out when you draft Josh Smith, you get Josh Smith
5) Rodney Stuckey: see Josh Smith

Bench rotation rounded out by David Lee, Mo Williams, Jerryd Bayless, Chris Copeland, Seth Curry, none of whom really did jackshit. My only real coup was future HOF coach Billy Donovan :confuoot: but as of right now I have the worst roster in the league and I don't think it's very close. ONWARDS AND UPWARDS, VISIGOTHS

Edit: llllllllllllol from August 1, two thousand fifteen ay dee

rivetz posted:

At the end of the day, the team rises or falls off the assumption that of Noel, Harris, McLemore and Randle, at least two become top-ten players at their positions over the next 3 seasons (I genuinely believe three of them will, actually.)

Looks like Saric and Bertans are coming over so the Undead and the Ninos get a little more help on the bench.

Now I just need Robert Upshaw to get clean and at least do a better job of pretending to be clean (and also get better at basketball).

Here are the real life end of the year stats for everybody from Basketball-Reference. I pulled the standard and advanced stats. There's a draft tab which has all the teams and then the team tabs start after the standard and advanced stats pages.

You can only view the pages because I was worried about someone messing up my precious formulas and I don't really have to energy to go back through and re-copy and re-paste all the tabs as values instead of formulas.
