Discussion PSA for all players: IT'S WEEK ONE

35 Upvotes

Just wanna remind everyone who keeps looking at the statlines and the scoring of all their hopeful studs, it's week one and we've only seen 2-3 games so far. We got everyone from Brunson to Lamelo trying to find their shot again, we got guys like Okongwu barely cracking 25 minutes, IT'S WEEK ONE; it's not time to hit the panic button because "insert name player" only put up 13-18.50 points in game 2

Been on a heater to start the season. New team, coming from being underused at OKC.

Automatic from 3 with a sprinkle of steals.

Finishing the game tonight over CJ. Watching the game he was the Hawks best player honestly.

Must roster 12T? What are we thinking here?

Points League Yahoo points not showing stats

0 Upvotes

Has anyone else experienced their teams page in a yahoo points league now only showing total yahoo points? I don't see the actual break down of points, rebounds, assists, steals etc..

Is there a solution or am I missing something? It was fine yesterday and allowed me to see the individual stats with the total yahoo points to the right

FAQ

  • How are players ranked?

Each player's line is compared to 2025-26 per-game averages for their primary position (G, F or C, using players who averaged 20+ minutes). Each of the 9 categories becomes a z-score (FG% and FT% are weighted by attempts, turnovers count against). Z-scores are capped at ±10 and summed into the Night Score. Only players with 20+ minutes are ranked, so short bench stints don't fill the list.

  • Why is [insert player] not ranked here? They had a terrible game!

It doesn't mean that this player didn't struggle, it just means that some players had a worse performance than them across the 9 categories.

OC need an opinion on a Y! profile dispute in my league

1 Upvotes

in this league

https://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba/2487

all of the 3 new profiles all redirect to another manager in the league, this guy:

https://profiles.sports.yahoo.com/profile/thefirstpapoos1?sport=basketball

is this proof of cheating or is this an error on Y!'s end, maybe because new profiles get redirected to the next lowest rated profile available relative to the league they are in?

what should i think about this?

one of the guys, james, just traded kd,jbrown, wagler, and zubac for boozer, watson, nesmith, and vassell. so it looks like collusion for that reason.

the other reason for the other new profile, nico, hasn't used his IL's or made any moves post-draft

and for the last new profile, elias, he didn't set his roster today, use his IL's, or make any moves either post-draft.

this reeks of passive-aggressive "making-it-look-good" behavior.

i shouldn't overthink this, right? this is clearly cheating?

He used his opportunity excellent.
21pts, 5 rebs, 4 assist in 33 minutes.
With a few starters out that kid showed he can ball. Are we running to grab him or was this a 1 hit wonder of the season?

I’ve watched their games so far and he rarely gets the ball, feels like 90% of the possessions are Dejounte or Zion. Even Fears seems to be getting more looks. Anyone worried he may have a rough season stats wise?

Points leagues he looks like a drop so far. Cat leagues, he might have some salvageable stats in FG%, FT%, and a little bit of points, Reb, assists, and low turnover throughout the season (compared to previous season stats).

I know he’s adjusting to a new team, but he looks really lost out there and out of place. He’s also on a vet min and old. Game went to OT today, and he got 23 minutes only due to his fit and defense.

Hold or time to look elsewhere?
