The classic “if I bet on five guys I’ll probably get one of them” mistake
Well I was prepared to win multiple bids as evidenced by my having three cuts already pre-submitted ready to go, though I did win like one more than I was counting on. But those are good guys I won, for peanuts!

Jaden Hardy was putting up 25 point games when he got starts for Dallas. AJ Griffin likewise was a good shooter pushing for a starting gig last season. Both were just 19. Livers is a great shooting forward who has had injury issues but is ready to go this year. And Jordan Hawkins is the new Rip Hamilton!

I have a couple guys whose shooting is a question mark and my shooting guard depth was zip behind Melton so this is all good stuff.

i'm not saying you hosed up or whatever, but it's always funny when someone wins like 5 bids in a day when they were obviously aiming for 2. not a terrible problem to have but it can throw off your plan for sure. like i suddenly have tons of guards after today when i was considering trading for one

yeah I didn’t mean to sound defensive, just bullish… definitely though you were on target as im going to have to cut one more player than i bargained for now, was only saying it wasn’t as bad as all that since I’d planned for 3 wins out of the 4 and am happy overall with those players.

Yeah, it's best not to pay any heed to a satanic computer that thinks Kristaps has basically as much value as Luka rn
I'd love to find an NBA gm just running their team on BBGM simulated player values though. Might explain Charlotte.

I mean i think the bigger issue might just be that it has Luka weirdly low. It's not just someone crappy like RJ Barrett or someone not-as-good like Porzingis is rated as high as him. It's everyone. Below Bradley Beal? Equal to Giddey and Bane? etc etc. But I think the sim has a lot more data on the backend than just the overall score so maybe he has a bunch of insane offense numbers that are just being pulled down by defense or something and it'll come out on the sim court!

Well the sim is pulling numbers from a range (i assume), so it might just be that instance. Just looking at what's left... should Josh Giddey be rated higher than Hali? Probably not. Is Paolo Banchero worse than Kelly Olynyk? Hell no!

there are over 150 players rated higher than 40 in the unseen players list and we've been running 25-30 per day, but some of those 150+ have already been up for bid (I saw a couple names that I know were already used) or ineligible (also saw Bronny), so probably 19 or 20?

I'm planning about 19 days, could be 18 or 20. If it's a bunch of no namers left they'll be in the FA pool.

The numbers on that page are not reliable or the specific rosters I am using necessarily.

Also a lot of NBA sims do that - players who are just average across the board can have a similar rating to someone considered a star if that star is more of a specialist, but those specific things from the star are so high they put up way bigger numbers.

Apparently it wasn't checking the bottom bits of the unbidded list, but it does now. I think it should be good from here on out.
