The Utah Jazz (habeasdorkus) have signed Luka Doncic for $413.

(The next highest bid was $377.)

Should’ve been $600+ like Giannis and Jokic

Nice deal on doncic. Does anyone have an active spreadsheet that they’d mind sharing? I feel like there was a link earlier but I don’t feel like going back to look for it.

I’d say Giannis Jokic Doncic are worth at least 60% of your cap with Embiid coming up behind them. There’s teams with $500+ and even $850-1000, who are they waiting for!

Thanks, this is awesome. What’s the story with the overall ratings? I’m trying to not care and just go with players that are cool and that I think would fit together, but it’s hard to get excited when Malcolm brogdon is rated higher than jayson Tatum.

also having a predetermined idea of how much of the cap a player is worth is how you end up spending 50 bucks on dudes who cant get minutes and running out of money on day 3.

They are not "worth" 60% of the cap, they are worth the cheapest you can possibly get them for.

its how the goofy sim rates the players

presumably because whoever runs it doesnt actually watch games

IIRC it combines a lot of little things so it's weighted higher for guys that are good or decent at a lot of areas. Tatum was almost unstoppable in the last one though just because of his scoring

I don't think this is true at all tbh. There is some wonky stuff sometimes but some people edit rosters who watch a lot.

I just grabbed a player list from basketballgm at the start of the 2023 preseason and it assigns these numbers, but there appears to be variation every time you start a new league. (Sometimes Giannis is 77, sometimes 81, sometimes 76, etc.) The short answer is that they're not specifically accurate, and when DBD runs the league his numbers will be different anyways. I have no idea what these numbers mean mechanically.

Trust your heart. That's what I did, and that's why I have Marko Simonovic and 2 Diengs and I will never feel bad about that.

Customize your league and set real player determinism to 100

When I say “worth” you clearly don’t know how I’m defining that. The top guys are worth more than 60% if anything, with no max here we can pay the irreplaceable superstars as much as we want and then pay the interchangeable guys who maybe contribute a starter’s portion even less. It should all only lead to MORE for Doncic

I did do this for the numbers that I have on my sheets, I didn't check to see if it would be the same if I did it a second time though so I assumed the variance is built in :shrug:

You're still trying to view this through the lens of how real basketball works and not a wonky league where you blind bid on players for 18 days in a row. We arent putting butts in seats and we dont have to play by the rules of the NBA.

You can do it whenever after tbh! It's probably a better sim I just don't have it, haha.

But the schedule post finalized teams will go GOON VOTING ON CHAMPION (and some other fun stuff) -> BB-GM 1 season sim, so there's technically two prestigious goon awards you guys can win

BasketballGM is a really fun game but the real player rosters are always pretty iffy.

I'm just drafting/bidding for the goon vote which will be The Real Championship anyway. The sim(s) are an afterthought for me.

Right but there’s still a purpose here which is to build teams that are as fun or good as we can. And that goal would put the price for Luka higher most of the time. Why can’t you just say that it was a steal!

I was sure with all his big talk Paul Zuevella was going for Luka but I guess the shambling skeleton of CP3 and John "would be a low end all-star in 1987" Collins is a good way to cement 45 wins and a first round exit.

Chris Paul was the 9th best player in the league by win shares and was the best player on the best team in the league what are you smoking

Also I missed out on Luka by 60 bucks
