I know it's still VERY early in the season (  ) but jeez! Spike has 79 pts already??!! And I freakin' benched J Smith at the last minute thinking I'd use my "good" guy, and he's would've given me the most points so far tonight...  PS - This StatTracker is a little confusing. I wish there was a column for GAME POINTS on the lineup page....
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

Plaw must really have the correct strategy down. Cuz apparently being 154 pts back after Day 1 means nothing to him!  BB 154 SP 144 DB 071 JG 040 DM 015 PL 000 Choosing not to play on Day 1 is a ballsy move in my book. A move that means "crawling back up" to me... :p BTW, Plaw... enjoy my Anti-Jinx™!!

Choosing not to play on Day 1 is a ballsy move in my book. A move that means "crawling back up" to me... :p Well..... - I only had two guys that I could've used (C Chris Anderson & PG Andre Miller) anyway. - Miller was the only one I even considered, but decided not to use him 'cuz he's always shit on the road (It's not like he's Kevin Garnett or Shawn Marion or something). - Miller scored only 15 points, so I'm not complaining. - I still have all 164 games left at my PG position. - You, on the other hand, used two of your PG games and got a total of 27 points (Not that I'm criticizing. If I had those two at PG, I would've played them last night also). - It's a loooooooong season.  BTW..... As soon as the stats are official, I'm gonna post the standings. Not in order of most points, which means very little, but in the order of "Average number of points per player game used." I'll explain that better later.

Tuesday's Scores and Standings Yest

BB 154 7 7 977 22.0
SP 144 7 7 977 20.6
DM 15 1 1 983 15.0
JG 40 5 5 979 8.0
PL 00 0 0 984 0.0Yest Score = Yesterday's Score GUY = Games Used Yesterday TGU = Total Games Used TGL = Total Games Left AVG = Average number of points per game used This is a much more accurate reflection of the standings than simply points scored. Yeah, you have a 40 point lead on me, but I should easily be able to make up those 40 points because your players did shitty yesterday and you had to use up five of your available 984 games (82 at each position x 12 positions) to get only 40 points. True, it has something to do with which of your players played yesterday. DB had two of his best going (Nowitzski & Iverson), while you had none of your really good players in action. Anyway, I figure we should all average somewhere around 20 PPG per "player used", since the scoring is the same as the ESPN daily game and that's about what we average. Actually, it should be higher, because we theoretically have all good players, and there won't be any cap restrictions late in the season that will force us to pick scrubeenies. The info on how many games each of us used and how many games we have remaining is at the lower right-hand corner of each of our roster pages. The link is "Other Utilities" and "Maximum Games Played"

Tonight should give us a good idea of what's going on, since I think we'll all have 12 players in action and can all expect to score well over 200 points.

I look at it, but truthfully, I find it a tad confusing. But whatever you need to do to display yourself as not being in last place... :p

Let me simplify it for you:
I'm ranking everyone by PPG, not total points.
Kinda like giving the batting championship to the guy with the highest average rather than the moast hits.
In the end, of course, it will come down to the most points. If one of use fails to use our max number of games and falls a few points short of winning, that's their own fault.
Why am I bothering here? You know all of this. Stop breaking my balls. :p

I'm gonna get into bed now, pull up the covers, and enjoy the Clippers-Hawks game on the NBA.com audio thingy. :rolleyes: I can root for Brand and Magette, and against Cassel, J. Johnson, Harrington, and Marvin Williams.  Ah, the joys of technology.

I knew Maggette wasn't gonna play. That's what I like about this game, though. With a guy like him, at least, it doesn't matter. Second place, huh? Well, maybe in total points, which really isn't what counts....... :p
