I will just never get the correlation between record and efficiency
Maybe a better idea would be to run 10 simulations and see what the cumulative results would be though that would be a huge undertaking
I don't understand how some teams with low efficiencies have such high win totals or how teams with relatively even efficiencies can be soooo different in record
I'm not sure how the rankings work. It could be that a deep but mediocre team rates highly, because it's players are all pretty good, even though it lacks a star. Another team, on the other hand, that has a great rotation but a lesser deep bench may have a lower ranking, even though the players actually getting minutes are better.
I've got no idea if that's how it works, but it's an explanation.
Okay, I can understand that, I guess
So now explain to me where the Detroit club fits in
They have the second worst efficiency rating in the game yet are almost a .500 team and have a better record than 4-5 other EC teams with efficiencies 8-10 points higher, teams that have clearly better rotations and players
I mean it's all good and fun
It just doesn't make any sense
Then again, neither does the real life play of the Celtics so I guess anything is possible
