Ratings Distribution, Stats Distribution, and Various Creation Draft Analysis (177 views)

[20s]

I did some things.  The charts are interactive so play around and see what you can learn/find.

Things I want to call out or explain:

• The Ratings and Stats distribution pages are interactive.  Click on any letter grade or one of the bars to see the players included below.
• Stat GPAs are a team's top 8 draft picks stat grades converted into an average GPA. For example, Rebounds GPA is a team's top 8 draft picks  rebounding letter grade converted into an average GPA.  This is an interesting way to look at which teams 8 man rotations are the strongest in each stat category.
• The average draft slot tab is taking a look at each team's top 5 and top 8 draft picks and figuring out what the average overall pick was for that.  Theoretically, this should tell us which teams starting lineups and rotations are the "most talented".  Or more accurately, which teams picked those players earliest in the draft.  It's a decent way to see which teams went all in and which teams we could potentially expect to compete right away.

If you guys don't find these interesting or worthwhile, please let me know and I will avoid this type of stuff in the future.  Just keep in mind when voting that it did take a lot of my time.

I can also post more of my thoughts tomorrow and will answer any questions about the charts that I didn't make clear.  Thanks.

With turnovers, is a higher GPA good or bad?

50K - very cool stuff. Some of the overlapping logos were annoying, but only because it was mine that as overlapped. Most of it was really great though. Definitely like this kind of additional breakdown/analysis.

I thought that represented the average # of TOs based on your top 8 picks so I thought low was good

Higher GPA is always good, I used this scale:

A = 4
B = 3
C = 2
D = 1
F = 0
I = 0

So teams with guys who didn't play enough or a lot of U of Prague guys are getting punished.  But my thought is that eric said they suck and if they didn't get enough minutes they probably aren't great.  Maybe a 1 or 2 would have been better for I but I just gave it a 0.
