This is how we had it last year:
PTS: 0.5
FGM: 1
FGA : -0.45
FTM: 1
FTA: -0.75
REBS: 1.5
3PT: 3
AST: 2
STL: 3
BLK: 3
TO: -2
The current scoring system you have set up is way out of whack. Inflates scorers, doesn't punish poor FG% or poor FT%.
Apart from Crazy's suggestion of adding a differential for Offensive Rebounds vs Defensive, I don't think we should stray too far from this scoring system. It's built that way for a reason because it's meant to be balanced based on overall performance.
I suggest we stick with the scoring above and perhaps give 1.75 or 2 for an Offensive Rebound.
Fouls should not give minus points either.
Let me show you why your current system doesn't work. Let's take a very basic statline, one guy goes for 20 pts another goes for a 10pt 10reb double double.
In your system:
10/10 guy - 50 pts
20pt guy - 40 pts
In the normal system:
10/10 guy - 22.75 pts
20 pt guy - 15.5 pts
As you can see the % difference between the two performances is vastly reduced with your system, meaning simply scoring points is a faaaaaar more valuable attribute in this scoring system you have proposed.
Smokes, people are also awarded on rebounds and points, just not just FGM or OFF & DEF REBS
Last year's system is okay, I'm gonna make this year's fair and logical.
The two categories with the greatest distribution are the three pointer and the block. They also happen to be the least frequently occurring stats. For the fantasy basketball owner, it means it is easier to find a single player who can have an impact in that category than in others.
Games Started (GS) .5

I'm keeping it how it is, everyone just play to it.
I'm setting the draft time to 9:15PM EST time (That's 9AM for Crazy8s)
It'll be right after the Knick game.
NO MORE CHANGES!
