Hey team - in between bottle feeding two newborn twins and changing diapers, I took a stats-based look at all the player seasons since league inception (minus the mystical missing 1998 season). I calculated the below metrics for every player season (as...
Unproductive Action Tendency (2027-28 Season): Adjusting for Missed Free Throws and Possession Advantage
Since I originally introduced these metrics two seasons ago, I’ve iterated on them and wanted to share the updated versions here, calculated for every eligible player for the 2027-28 season....
Happy FA period all. As I am an RP poor man who had an idea, and finally have time now that I’ve gotten thru my MAI tests (look that shit up, pretty annoying real estate appraisal stuff there), I had time to sit down to do a semi-creative thing. My inspiration came from Jordo’s fictional character...
TRYING TO GET THIS IN BEFORE ASHES SIMS AND GOING TO WRITE IN ALL CAPS TO EXPRESS THE HASTE WITH WHICH I AM WORKING. IS THIS A REAL LIST? WHO CAN SAY. HERE ARE 50 FREE AGENTS TO CONSIDER
50. PASCAL SIAKAM
49. JAREN JACKSON JR
48. TRAE YOUNG
47. LUKE KORNET
46. JORDAN POOLE

After letting my brain recharge for like a month I got the itch to make some original SLN content (key word: original ) and with the longest draft in SLN history now over and it being a very slow Monday, here we go.
I've been scouring over the league pretty closely over the past week as I was...
Enjoy my unruly, extremely facetious takes on your horrendous draft choices. Using Fortune Teller Baba, i predict that the avg grade for you goons will be C+ this year. LETS SEE HOW SENSITIVE WE ALL ARE! Lol
While we wait on our statistics whiz Monsieur Tong Papi to make his pick, i wish to...
2028 Draft – Crude Initial Ranking of the Draft Profile Guys (I’m Dumb)
1. Karim Lopez SF 6'8'' 210 21 B C+ C B- C+ A
High inside with a decent jump shot, plays defense / gets stocks, good rebounding and athleticism. His range should develop over time as a wing, so his main weakness appears to...
Should He Play Backup PG?
As we all know, players at PG have more volume at the expense of more turnovers. Players can be so OP at PG that there are even special rules as to who can play PG!
Backup PG is therefore one of the most important positions in the DC, as any PG/SG/SF can play backup PG....
Of course, variance between games makes this a less-than-perfect exercise. However, here are six games that caught the league's attention, with takeaways of what this might entail for the rest of this cool season. Please accept some of the editorializing: like in the old days, I'm just reading this...
At the risk of over-engaging with our RP economy, I wanted to take a closer to look at how people were....or more specifically, were not....using RP's.
I'm going to toot toot our horn and Ashes' horn and say that our system is working. This is the best I've ever seen...
Top player stats and team differentials for both preseasons. Note, per 36 calcs for player stats are subject to a minimum 5 games / 12 minutes per game played.
Reminder again of how I calculate stat totals. When I refer to “TCΔ”, I count a letter grade move as 1. I do not include changes in Potential in these calcs. When I show “Stat Totals” for players, I calculate those as a sum of all letter grades, excluding...

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...
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...
I’m flying back from Vegas and can’t sleep so might as well earn the RP I burned on Adem Bona back. I’ll take a look at each team, a key question, a strength, and an area I’d improve.
Boston
Playoff Contender
Key Players: Jabari Parker, Reed Sheppard,...
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.
why not. As someone with no kids of my own and no nieces or nephews, I may be the least qualified to make these rankings - but I do think I'm probably up there in terms of number of people in the league I've met in person, so let's have some fun, shall we?

Reward Camps happen right before TC and are inputted manually by ashes. We're getting this thread posted now so people can start thinking about how they want to spend their camps.
Reminders:
You should aim to have these posted 1-2 days after the draft is completed. If you're not in the playoffs,...
