Yeah, I think I'll pretty much 0 out team salary by next week. It helps earlier in the season when there are minimal amount of games played to see who might have potential for being a strong team.

I've drawn the highest possible seed in the cup (FM and D9) twice now and we're not even at the sweet 16.

I think that's worse for us than it is for you bud

I don't think it's great for either of us but the planning this season didn't really account for playing so many teams in the top 100 so early.

I guess it has to do with how nice my schedule has been the last 2 seasons and I've gotten used to that.

I lowered the weights for team salary to almost 0. I like including the cup since teams in the cup generally have to sacrifice league performance at some point, but I need a way to factor in teams going out early in the cup as the rankings underrate Triple Double quite a bit in my opinion.

Updated MVP race with projected points from voting:
1. Calvin Webb (Wasted Potential) – 74.3
2. Artaxerxis Tzougkarakis (Delta 9) – 50.9
3. Greg Maynard (Atelier), - 41.1
4. Ty Maxwell (Telecasters) – 32.9
5. Slavko Medun (Irvine Anteaters) – 30.8

The Next 5: Denis Borisenko (10inch Vertical), Christopher Stepp (Atelier), Batachikhan Qorin (10inch Vertical), Nikola Petrovic (Delta 9), Martin Penkov (Delaware 87ers)

Pretty sure with in league transfers the stats don’t transfer for MVP so I left Mrosla off (model had him at 2nd).

Thank you for my weekly ego boost and congratulations on grabbing up Mrosla for a reasonable price.

I assume you'll continue to use him like Chek did to haunt me.

Fun times ahead ;)

I hate it here. How did he sell for under $2M???

My theory was exhaustion changes and high salary players just being worth less in an unknown game engine.

Mediocrity mentioned that it was also after B3 roster locks.

Graham went way too low in my eyes, Mrosla was a bit too low but not a lot. If I had a roster slot for him, I would have grabbed Graham under 1 mil and never looked back.

But yeah you def deserve a bit more for those 2... sorry bud

A few notes:
- 3 NBBA teams left in the cup with the big game coming between Jim Almeidas Janitor Crew and F.Day Internet Lovers Club. Winner will face Atelier barring a massive choke.
- Delaware 87ers rookie set the NBBA blocks in one game record a few weeks back.
- Telecasters has gone 10-1 in league games after the injury plagued start.

I’ll be interested to see how accurate this model ends up being. It has Webb starting to run away with MVP and everyone after that pretty close.

- Telecasters has gone 10-1 in league games after the injury plagued start.

Up to 11-1, let’s see if we can keep this roll going and get into the playoffs…won’t be easy, I know that

A few notes:
- Cup Finals this week. Atelier vs F.Day Internet Lovers Club
- Telecasters and Delaware 87ers might end up having a sort of “play in” game on Saturday for the 4 seed in the Big 8.
