Guys like Broph and Repole control player value in this league. It's kind of sick. because we pay attention to stats instead of just believing a guy is good off name and ratings? ZBo should have some value, he isnt horrible, and I assume he hasnt been camped much if at all, needs some work but the FT's are real nice and he gets to the line a lot have to assume he isnt athletic, should be strong, so I dunno why he is struggling, but AC's would help a lot |

Not saying KG is overrated or overvalued but how many people went "Hmm maybe NOH isn't performing well because they surrounded KG with nothing."

Like if Broph just made up some bull statistic on some guy with awful ratings guys would overvalue him. Every single stat can be double checked by anybody, or, if J ever updates his fucking stats page, then it can be seen by anybody |

Am I saying that KG cant be a solid player on a title team, no, his D and rebounding is sick, but, as the star guy on a title team no fucking way, his offense is so bad |

This is like running mock sims with guys with similar ratings and running complex algorithims or w/e the hell you guys do in your spare time. Accesibility to FBB is like a baseball player using HGH. |

not like I shit on Dwight for being completely awful when I had him, teams still find value for their players, I got Marion, IKG has been passed around by each team that has had him, and I dont believe any of the teams he has been on have been anything special at all

Accesibility to FBB is like a baseball player using HGH. or not, there has been a crack for the first FBB for a long time, ask around If I had the time and energy to put into what you do with FBB in relation to this league I still wouldn't be able to because I have a Mac. I am pretty sure there are many GM's in the same boat. I am not knocking you, or angry by any means. What you do is perfectly fine in my book. However, you can't sit there with a straight face and tell me your biggest asset as a GM isn't your uncanny ability to deflate and inflate player value and more importantly the influence those assesments have on other GM's and the league as a whole. |

Im patient, as much as anything, I dont rush into anything, I know what my team needs to win, low turnovers, great rebounding, and blocks. |

What I am saying is you completley deflated Dwight Howard's value through your comments, whether purposely or indirectly. If the same things came out of my mouth it wouldn't have the same impact in part due to whatever mock things you do with FBB on the side. Ipso facto, my HGH analogy. |
