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

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.

GL FDay, we've both been putting up some pretty nice ratings as of late so it should be a fun final

GL to you too, Apex! I am not expecting anything good from this game since your team is much stronger than mine, but anyway we will try our best.

To get us all hyped up for our final NBBA games these decide quite a lot going into the playoffs and I wanted to cover all possible scenarios since I had some time:

Atelier (17-4) @ Irvine Anteaters (17-4): A grudge match to decide the 1st seed in the league.

Delaware 87ers (12-9) @ Telecasters (13-8): The match which decides which team makes the playoffs and which team is out into relegation. If Delaware 89ers lose this one and 10inch can beat UK Nuggets by enough, the 89ers might slide down to 6th. Giving them a much harder matchup in relegation of Arizona Cacti instead of Flash Mashers.

10 Inch Vertical (11-10) @ UK Nuggets (5-16): The aforementioned deciding game where if 10 Inch can rack up enough PD and a win while Delaware 89ers loses by enough, they can sneak up a slot in the standings for an easy relegation series.

Delta 9 (15-6) @ Work In Progress (7-14): Has absolutely no implications on the league whatsoever besides potential playoff HCA if Delta 9 can make it to the finals.

Arizona Cacti (7-14) @ F.Day Internet Lovers Club (15-6): Should have no implications on the league at all besides potential finals HCA if F.Day were to make it to the finals.

Jim Almeidas Janitor Crew (11-10) @ Triple Double (14-7): Unless this game ends in a blowout it won't effect either team in the standings. Both are around 160 PD away from moving up a slot and would require a blowout by F.Day or Wasted Potential which is unlikely given their matchups.

Wasted Potential (12-9) @ Flash mashers (3-18): Should have no implications on the league at all besides potential finals HCA if Wasted Potential does make it to the finals.

BallHoggersFTW (8-13) @ Ice Man (1-20): Bot game, easy win for BallHoggers.

Good Luck and Have Fun Ya'll!

Out of curiosity, who is on the discord of us in the NBBA? I know of some on the discord that chat often or are mods, but was wondering if others are on there sometimes as well.

Just curious as we're talking a bit about the cup and didn't know if Mc KR would be interested in discussing the game.
