Since there was no pod, I thought to make it a over under check in article because ya boy needs some RP and its also a fun pulse check on everyone’s teams. Well everyone that answered the pick’em at the beginning of the year. Let’s dive in.
Bucks - 52 wins. Current record – 37-25 – on pace for 49...
At risk of giving away all my deepest team-building secrets, I've been thinking about putting together some totally observational, dorky as fuck SLN positional philosophy to help us all think about roster construction, roles, and how the game works.
I thought it would be fun to sim the 2013 SLN Finals on 2K and see if the 76ers would come out on top this time. When I first set out to do this, the thought was that I'd do the entire playoffs, but it just takes surprisingly long. This is a super imperfect comparison, but I tried my best to make...
No, I’m not getting lazy with the Big Board names, I just keep writing these articles before I’ve had second dinner. This one is a bit of a mess outside of the top 4 guys or so – this is definitely not the first time someone has used the adjective...

Friends, I have taken it upon myself to answer some of the leagues greatest questions when it comes to SLNs draft history. What are the greatest drafts in league history and who was the biggest bust that tarnished the reputations of the weaker classes? Join me on my deep dive.
Getting these up right before the NCAA tournament tips! Get those brackets in ASAP! Like literally now!
As I wrote this I found myself super impressed with how much deeper the league is getting. I think 20ish teams are in the playoff mix to start the season which is awesome. This is really hard to...
I wanted to do an analysis to see how much stats get discounted when players transition from the NDL to SLN, but i am too stupid to figure out the NDL history link so that will have to wait for another day.
Instead, I went and looked at all of the guys who were sent down to the NDL and charted...
Hola señores. Back with another season of team stats visualizations
here are my findings!
Rockets delta chart looks real nice. leading league in differentials for points per game, rebounds and assists. Rockets defense was stellar, holdings opponents to fewest FG and FGA in the league. Wild to be...
Reminder from the last time we did this: I feel like this stat has been less relevant than it was in other leagues - like SLOR - because Ashes has created such a great landscape of bigs that we don't have the homogenized Def/Reb group on every team....
One of the best under-the-radar drafts that weve seen. A ton of subjectivity and sleepers developed into real deal players in the league. Lets take a look at this bizzarro world redraft:
1. Original Pick – Washington Bullets Select Chris Paul (PG) – I think, blessed with the gift of hindsight,...
Finally have some time so here I present you with a More Detailed Than Usual mock draft. This is a sort fun class in the sense that it will be really hard to predict after the first few names — it's a really flat draft I think — so while this draft sucked IRL I do think there are nice value...
What up everyone — trying to chip in some interesting content during this current drought of reading material and decided to delve into the league records and see what we find. (I found that several records are currently in the mix to be broken!)
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.
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 fill 'em out....
Kings Sign PF Pau Gasol for $131,250,000 over 6 years
Grade: B-
Pau was going to get a ton of money from someone. Right now, he’s both an efficient volume scorer and a classic big butt. As soon as one of those things stops being true, he’ll no longer be a value. I think Jesse or whoever winds...
A big kahuna! Last year was Pau’s best in a few years; the man looks like he has some juice left. I am probably more skeptical of him as a long term signing than most, but who doesn’t want an efficient 20 and 12 with positive stocks from their big? Pau looks likely to...
Exclusive to the Chicago Son Times, Cook County’s leading publication for well-behaved boys, allowance receivers and dads that cry hearing the Cat Stephens song about mermaid boobies.
I am about to burn through RP like Heath Ledger's Joker trying to develop all these young guys so I'm here to maximize my content output and preview everyone's favorite thing, free agency.
Gonna go team by team and do a quick little breakdown of what's going on.
Reminder from the last time we did this: I feel like this stat has been less relevant than it was in other leagues - like SLOR - because Ashes has created such a great landscape of bigs that we don't have the homogenized Def/Reb group on every team....
In 2024 movie sequels may not be as dominant as they once were, but in 2011 they absolutely owned the box office. I chose a character from the top 5 grossing movies worldwide in 2011 and created an SLN draft profile for them.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2

Cutting it a little close with the Big Board this year, sorry. In recent weeks I have been asked by my bosses to “do your job” and “spend less time on your weird little 4chan site on your phone, everyone can see you staring at it in client...

Free Agency CAN begin 24-hours after the end of the draft (or in theory sooner) but will not start until everyone completes their bids. Send Free Agent Bids to Ashes. Post in this thread when you do. If we get 29/29 of GMs to submit bids ahead of time, that's 200 in FREE CANDY for all of us!
Voting is open now and will remain open until Wednesday EOD. Chair this season is GX, text your top 3 to me (301-300-0581) ( i understand i am also in the running so to show transparency i will send out an excel doc will all the votes tallied for anyone to verify)
