I could've exaggerated my injuries above, so pardon omar. 
NBA Yahoo Fantasy League 12/13

Now I know how the American Indians felt fighting the British.
If you take out the first week (when I didn't know you could make daily lineup changes), my team has lost just twice all season. Once 5-4 and once 6-3.
That was me Eboue. I'm gonna win this thing.
Okay I did a bunch of calculations comparing where the total stats say each team should be and where the category W/L say they are.
Here is the official luck rating from best luck to worst luck.
1. Omar, -6
2. Desert, -2.5
2. Eboue, -2.5
4. Goo, -1
4. Best, -1
4. Ill, -1
7. RDCR, 0
8. Nanderson, 4.5
8. Danny, 4.5
10. Dan, 5
The numbers are the differences in rank between stats and W/L. For example, I'll break down Omar's line.
FG: 1st in WL, 5th in total = -4
FT: 2.5 in WL, 1 in total = ***.5
3P: 4 - 5 = -1
PT: 4.5 - 6 = -1.5
REB: 5.5 - 6 = -0.5
AST: 8 - 8 = 0
ST: 7 - 7 = 0
BL: 7 - 7 = 0
TO: 1.5 - 2 = -0.5
Add up -4, 1.5, -1, -1.5, -.5 and -.5 to get -6.
So taking this into consideration, here are my power rankings.
Tier 1: Best
Tier 2: Eboue, RDCR
Tier 3: Danny, Omar
Tier 4: Dan, Goo
Tier 5: Desert, Ill, Nan
TheBest is the clear favorite and I wouldn't be surprised if Eboue or RDCR won it. Danny and Omar have an outside chance but I don't think Dan or Goo have much of a chance at all.

Yeah, these stats are definitely accurate.. People raise their games against me, cnuts!I have an outside chance of winning what by the way?
Theleague
Anything can happen in a couple of weeks. We have playoffs don't we?
Yeah, but if you win the playoffs you win the championship not the league. The league ends before the playoffs.
This is an American sport, no one cares about the regular season.
Short week this with the All Star break. Great, another loss is exactly what I need.
Monta Ellis is available.
Anyone down to trade? I want to switch up my team.
Whom do you want from my team?
Josh Smith?
And from mine?
Vucevic
Gannooooooooooobliiiiiiiiiiiiiii?
Not interested in him.
Ellis = Josh Smith = Vucevic?
That's a bit harsh Eboue.
That's a bit harsh Eboue.
Ellis is rated as the 80th best this season, Smith is 93rd. Vucevic is 27th but Omar has 4 good players at the 4 big man spots.
I'm looking to give myself an edge at rebounding and I'm willing to give up PTS or 3PT. Feel free to suggest something.
Sorry Eboue, I can't suggest anything if you're working by that logic. Ranking means nothing in this game. It's the stats that count. Have a look at Smith's stats (in all categories!) and compare them to Ellis and Vucevic.. No player in the league would accept to trade Smith for any of them.Anyone wants my Kevin love? I need some players. Just looked the schedule for next week and I don't want the beating to be brutal
That ranking is based off the stats for he season. I suggest you take another look.
What is the deal with this vetoed trade?
Limping towards the finishing line, right now
By the way I forgot this.
Regular season is irrelevant.
By the way I forgot this.
What? You won a pointless regular season and you post a picture of actual champions?!
Congratulations for making it to the playoffs mate.. Just kidding. Congratulations buddy, you had a great season.
You are on a football forum, remember league gives the proper measure of a champion. Now we have got a pointless playoffs left.
Anyways, I am putting my money on you to win that.

It's an American sport, playoffs are what counts.
Not a good counter argument, I'm taking the moral victory here.
You can have the moral victory, I'll settle for the real victory.
To be honest it's not even a moral victory.. The objective of the regular season is just to qualify for the play-offs. The only advantage you get for finishing higher than somebody else is that you'll win a matchup against a lower ranked player in the playoffs if the actual matchup ended in a tie (4-4). Again white text.
And TheBest and I get a bye in the first round.
