Not having the spread sheet on the first page is ridiculous, someone post the updated one please.

damn people like to complain.

bookmark it, save it in google drive, go maneuver to the 2nd page of this thread...

Also clearly you don't have your posts set to 100--SS is definitely on the first page not the OP though.

If you guys want the spreadsheet in the OP, why not just page an SE mod?

i actually enjoy having the competitive advantage of leaving it in a browser tab while others claw around blindly

In the fourth round, we’re taking Al Fariq Aminu.

He’ll be slotted into the SF position and provides us with enough of the 3 in the 3&D equation to take advantage of the opportunities RWB will provide. He’s a good defender overall, grading out as above average on all shots taken out to 15 feet. He provides more shooting , with a tad less defense, than RWBs current teammate, UNDRAFTED, and we are slotting him in a similar role.

Also, he’s closer to our timeline (entering his 28-32 seasons)

RWB

Aminu
JJJ
Gobert

This is honestly the type of team RWB needs to compete, tall, long defenders who don't need the ball & just let RWB be selfish as hell offensively and go all out by himself, gj on that team.

p.s i sent my picks to vinni.

"Such a sharp board" is nebulous and not really what I'm getting at. I'm saying that these drafts produce an efficient market. Efficient markets are more about quality control on the lower end and diversity of approaches to the problem than elite top end analysis. For example, I think our draft produces a way more efficient market than one done by 15 of the best minds in the world + 10 guys from the local bar. Consider how we handled the Luka Doncic pick:





Everyone just matter-of-factly stated it was bad, nobody really argued otherwise, there was an example of one guy being booted so Exothermic was probably a little concerned about being booted himself if he made more picks that could be considered trolls, he admitted it was a bit of a troll while still defending it a bit, and then he audibled to a strategy(Pop + youngs) that isn't good but at least has some coherence to it. Luka going #4 overall definitely isn't good for the "sharpness" of the draft(and one big argument against allowing rookies to be drafted as this does tend to happen), but the way we handled it is what makes our market so sharp. Consider what would've happened in that hypothetical other message board draft with 15 great minds + 10 idiots....there would be pages and pages of discussion where people actually defend it, and too much of the top end quality would get lost in the noise.

I'm here. I'm about to pick.

Can i go with Kent Bazemore.

I don't think you are allowed to change your pick...

Shooting and Defense on the wings. Can defend the 1 through 3. Shot 39.4% from three on 4.2 attempts per game last season.

Oh really. I wanted to pick Bazemore. I was just thinking off the wrong person when I was typing. I'll change it back.

I agree with this. I imagine basketball is solved enough that a board of smart/hardcore fans can look at analytics and use some basic heuristics to build a team thats 80% as good as whatever the best GM would. And that's not to say that the best GM isn't "light years ahead", working incredibly hard with the newest tools and methods to uncover new sources of edge, it's more to say that you can reverse engineer it to some reasonable degree if you're observational.

meh i'll let it stand. doesn't even have the edited by xyz at time abc

In one of the dynasty N leagues years ago Assani and I were co-owners, it was like the 15th round or something insane, we had been debating between (I think) martell Webster and brandan Wright, and we had decided on wright after some discussion and then we were waiting like 10 minutes for the rest of the round to complete, when it got on us I ****ed up and typed Webster, tried to correct it in sub 3 seconds, and iron fisted commissioner SETH wouldn’t allow it. I still hold a very serious grudge to this day.

Anyway the point is it’s super easy to make a mistake and correcting it in like 5 min when under 5 ppl have seen the pick seems clearly defensible and a good commish decision

Thanks. I will skip charder tho

SteelersDMW is up
