Since short of asking the managers of the other players the exact skillsets of their players, which I doubt they'd share, I have no way of knowing what their skillsets are.


That's true, you can't know the exact skills of a player unless he's on your team or on the transfer list. But that doesn't mean the skillset is totally random. For instance, you can use the salary calculator in buzzer-manager.com and see what skills can amount to a 35k PG or SG. A 35k guard can probably be better at all guard skills than an 8k guard.

As for your other point, I'm not disagreeing. Getting good value out of players with lower salaries than your opponents is a good step for success. A 25k guard with decent inside skills and good defense can be much more useful than a 35k guard with high JS and nothing else, for example. And having players that can cause mismatches by being able to play and defend different positions also gives you multiple weapons to use. My point was just that, given what you've showed and told, you can't really conclude that your 7.7k guard has been constantly outplaying 15-35k guards.

They should have a Team of the Week. It could be done by rating or use something like the Efficiency rating that Buzzermanager uses.(it is better than rating because it doesn't care about position)
Again....Hattrick added this two seasons ago, and it is very popular.

While it is a small sample size of one (1) game, your guard does not outplay 14k guards with proficient GS. (55517508)

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

Definitely did not out-shoot. But out scored, rebounded, and fouled less.
The assists I take with a grain of salt considering the 2 20+k players and the 7+k player your pg was passing to vs the 4k pf 2 sub 3k guys, the 800 dollar guy and my aged 20+k guy.

The ratings of your team as a team vs mine showed the differences in that.
I guess it depends on definitions of playing better. But I would agree that he did not outperform the guy he was guarding. I also would not say your pg greatly outperformed him either.
