lmao Pau has a 94% efficiency rating playing at the 3

Maybe I should've rolled with a Pau/Dwight/Robinson frontcourt.

Not sure where you can get those numbers. How do you find them?

As far as Pau being 94% at the 3, considering he's never played a minute there in his career, that sounds pretty freaking retarded.

That was the SF who is relatively weak defensively that I was alluding to as my choice after Marion. Bush had obviously guessed that if you see his post.

His 97 year is a little better and you can choose that one instead.

Just my opinion.

I really didn't have another choice I was all that happy with. I'm glad he was still there. I had another SF in mind, but he was defensively weak.
You are probably thinking of my 2nd choice.

That is what I was saying before, some of those ratings are absurd, especially when they go 2 spots out from the point to the SF, or from the interior to the wing (or vice versa).
Taking a break from the board. Please reference my last post for more details if you are interested.

Yeah. I knew he wouldn't make it to me no matter what... but it was closer than I would have thought.

How exactly do they calculate the DEF rating. Grant Hill is at a 63? WTF?

At #11, Grant Hill is a steal.

That's actually not that good for a SF, which was the main reason I stayed away.

This is the idea behind the calculation per the updated FAQ:

The defensive rating is based on what we call stop percentage, which is a statistical approximation of the percentage of defensive possessions where the player helps create a turnover, missed field goal, or missed free throw. This approximation is based on certain player stats (minutes, steals, fouls, rebounds and blocks), the player's position, certain team statistics (for and against), and a factor for league averages for that season.

Thanks... I wasn't aware I could do that. Go go ahead and give me 97 Hill instead.
