Okay, for everyone that is new to this, it's pretty straightforward. Go to your roster using the above link and you'll see the new salaries for players that have offered to re-sign (compare it to your normal roster page). This is a take it or leave it situation with FBB. Some players offer to...
As I sit here patiently for the draft lotto, I decided to do a deeper dive on the draft class so far. It's an exciting draft class (as always thanks to the Sim God). I would say there are 4 tiers for the draft profile players, and interestingly enough, there are no 19 year olds. Without further...
It has been awhile since I opened up the house but we are running low on funds until I start my new job in August so I figured I'd try to take some money off the esteemed GMs of the league. (Just kidding, thought this is a fun way to keep the league...
An idea i had at the beginning of the season was to track differentials throughout the season and analyze how teams find their form by playoffs and the changes in league averages as a whole.
Here are the key trends I've identified across the season:
We've seen some amazing analytics posts - but the Swamp is returning to our roots with trade deadline literature. Below is evidence of how little I wanted to work today:
ATLANTIC
Boston Celtics
Hard cap no matter,
Jabari's dominant run
Fueling top sleeper.
I started writing this day 60 then got sidetracked then had a bunch of travels so did this in transit. Was initially going to insult all 29 teams in opposite fashion of Hoff, but leaving that one up to you Joe! Thanks to Hoff for the inspiration though, we need more content and in your knight in...
In honor of Father’s day last weekend, and the amount in which we love to talk about our SLN sons, I decided to come up with another metric to determine who can really make this claim.
The DADDY metric ( D evelopment A nd D omination D riven b Y gm investment) is my own creation that goes beyond...
Atlantic Division:
Orlando Magic: Jamal Murray is having a Manu Ginobli esque season his first season truly starting at SG; best team in the league differential wise
Boston Celtics: Reed Sheppard is a superstar and a better Jeff McInnis; Jabari Parker having one of the best seasons of all time...
FROM THE SWAMP: Juandissimo Magnifico got toasted off that tub of tequila windshield fluid we found in the parking lot. Now, due to an accidental stroke of magic, culture is bending back into itself. In short, as Ashes' sim time outpaces our real time, our real culture is rewinding across sim time....

WE’RE BY THE RAIL YARD CROSSING, UNDER A TWINKLING NIGHT SKY....
Hi guys! I did a smart person thing! Been thinking a bit about the greatest, or most impactful rookie seasons in league history and decided to come up with my own metric to measure.
Juice, short for Jordo’s Ultimate Impact Composite Evaluation evaluates the overall effectiveness and impact of SLN...
*** Note: I listed the teams in order on Friday and started filling in the blurbs before we saw any preseason or opening day sims. So these do not reflect the latest but I still think it will be fun to give me some grief. At the very least some teams will...
Inspired by this morning’s exchange on the groupchat. This hobby is so supremely ridiculous — and it has a collective of (relative) strangers sending me stuff like this. Order is random, unless you want to assign meaning to it, which could be kinda fun:
The 2026 season is upon us and we had another year of big TCs. Here’s this year’s edition of my analysis, with a new set of stat excluding Handles (given the impact of Handles movement can be such a mixed bag), and a deep dive on every rookie’s TC.
Every year, every GM's got his studs and it's duds, his craftiest moves and most embarrassing flops. For 75RPs, fill out the answers to the following questions and post it in the thread - think of these as your...
TL; DR: More free RP for a quick post! Prob wait til after FA to fill it out but up to you.
In addition to Team Awards, GMs can earn a quick and dirty 125RP by replying in this thread and filling out the below questionnaire - not required, but why not? Copy down the questions in a reply post and...
Unproductive Action Tendency (2025-26 Season): How often do players do what we want on offense?
One of the most interesting differences between SLN and real life ball is that assists don’t matter - in fact, passing is actually a bad thing. That makes stats like AST:TO ratio irrelevant. As such, I...
Slow work day and I have no horse in this race with a full roster so I thought it would be fun to go through the most interesting leftover FAs on the board per position.
Centers
Naz Reid - he hasnt panned out but he could be an interesting fit in an inside or balanced offense with his B+ inside...
HELLO HELLO, i am once again going to try and give some tewwible analysis of all your draft picks. Yes i know, 75% of GMs strictly want this to be Heimer rn(yes, we have done the studies on RP giveth and likes given) and thats okay. We here at ClintInc. know you have a choice for your SLN draft...
No one else seems particularly interested in collecting these very generous article boni, so *twiddles fingers like a fat guy looking at a box of free donuts in the office* don’t mind if I do. Bringing back an article I wrote in October of 2023, so this one is original (enough)!
One of my favorite part about NFL/NBA drafts are the market surrounding draft day trades - trade ups, trade downs, etc. It appears our very own draft-day market is officially broken, with late 1sts getting sold for peanuts and the majority of the 2nd round picks getting...
HERE IT IS: THE TOP 25, AT LONG LAST, BEFORE THE WORK WEEK STARTS, WE ARE DROPPING IT AT ASHES-ONLY HOURS (and also Jordo hours if you're Jordo and you are in Greece, sup dude).
No time for intros this time -- let's get into it. Here are the 25 best players in the league with a little extra...
Since I didn’t do my mid-season positional ranks the last couple seasons, I thought it would be fun to point out all the ways JWoo’s implied positional rankings this season were wrong. I should also say, this has nothing to do with my draft pick situation. As follows, are the Points Gained (™)...

Strengths: Solid in the post with a decent jump shot and developing range. Decent handles. Might get a steal and a block a game. Rebounding is slightly above average. Decent quickness.
Weaknesses: Positional defense is questionable. Needs to bulk up.
Strengths: Strong finisher. Uses his body well and absorbs contact at the rim. Likes to create on the perimeter. Versatile defender. Gives wings and bigs trouble alike. Solid stock potential. Good strength, athleticism, and quickness.
