Nice work! This is about right although you could probably get away with a little less team salary if you have salary-efficient players, but not too much less.

One thing to keep in mind is that your WR will jump quite a lot when you win playoff series and promote. So just because you are ranked ~8500 when you win your D.IV, doesn't mean you won't be <6000 when you start in your D.III league. For example, I jumped just over 3500 WR spots when I win my division and promoted (based on my WR before D.IV playoffs started to the first scrimmage in my first season in D.III).

Nice job on the research!

I'm not sure if salary tells the whole story, though. You can build a lot of different 50k players, but they're not all equally effective. What kind of match ratings are necessary to compete at the D.3 level? How high does OD, ID, IS, and PA need to be to compete?

Maybe something like this?

Outside Scoring average
Inside Scoring proficient
Perimeter Defense respectable-strong
Inside Defense respectable-strong
Rebounding average-respectable
Offensive Flow average

Outside and inside scoring would be dependent on the offense, while defense and rebounding seem to fluctuate based on where the game is played. This would only be to avoid relegation. Any thoughts?

The problem with defensive team ratings is that they're heavily dependent on enthusiasm and location (home or away), not to mention who plays how many minutes at each position.

The problem with defensive team ratings is that they're heavily dependent on enthusiasm and location (home or away), not to mention who plays how many minutes at each position.


So let's say, hypothetically:

PG:
13/7/13/14/14/11 6/4/3/2

SG:
13/11/15/14/14/10 6/7/7/4

SF:
10/8/12/10/10/10 7/8/7/5

PF:
9/5/6/5/5/5 12/12/12/7

C:
6/4/4/3/3/5 11/12/10/8

The salaries fit pretty closely with what Creed described. How would this team fare in an average D.3 league?

I'd say you'd do just fine, though some of that depends on who is backing up those players, and how well you manage enthusiasm, tactics and GS.

Edit: included the word tactics.

This team would do well but have some trouble scoring (although the PF would be a pretty good scorer). A bit light on ID and rebounding as well. A good manager would have them in the playoffs for sure.

Good luck! If my actual team were as good as my hypothetical team, I'd be a little bit more confident in my chances of beating you. As it stands now, I think I'm hosed.....

I've been pretty inactive lately but I'm gonna try to be more active now and get some more $$ heading into next season, and make a run for the league championship.

Probably gonna sell a few of my players and then buying some better guys for cheap
