With a positive true shooting differential (your ability to score more efficiently than your opponent) you have a good team foundation. You still need to tweak your roster and gameplan to give you more possessions than your opponent (Turnover and Rebounding differentials) but you have the start of a good team. Here are how all of the teams rank in that category.
I apologize for the rudimentary table

I'm satisfied with being mediocre.

Pretty much what I knew. Top 5 Offense. Defense is Garbage. Rebounding is Garbage. If I can improve those two things a little I'd be happy.
TS% is one of the many things I calculate every sim, but thanks for this Beeball. Every one of these different types of rankings help. Good to see it here compared to the rest of the league rather than staring at it on a spreadsheet. -
07-08-2013, 09:52 PMLoCo89Not sure how I feel about this lol. Are you more suprised at my defense or my offense?Quote:

Nets must be in Tier 4 by themselves. Thanks for this, I didn't do as bad add I anticipated.

07-08-2013, 09:55 PMBeeBall Reasonsdefense for sure. This is encouraging for you. I think you are one of the 4 teams with a championship shot. I really think it'll be either Philly, New Orleans, you or the Lakers (always a wild card)Quote:

Added Ray Allen who's better than Johnson defensively at the 2, have Crawford starting who's better than Brevin Knight, and replaced Zo with 2 A defenders who can rebound. The only one that I was worried about replacing was Ricky Davis who is better than JJ, but he hasn't been bad this season.Quote:

Free Throws are killing me on both defense and offense. If I was average at shooting FTs and oFT% I'd say I'd be much higher in the list.

07-09-2013, 06:58 AMBallSoHardIt's surprising just because of what we know irl; Any team w ray ray and jamal crawford wouldn't be inuitive to be a good defensive team; but i've noticed on this game Ray is a VERY good B+ defender. In face, he's better than a lot of A- guys i've had on my team before. I'm really pleasently surprised how good you are this year.Quote:
