Here's my current lineup: Damian Lillard, Rajon Rondo, Kemba Walker, Kevin Love, Wesley Matthews, Vucevic, Ryan Anderson, Klay Thompson, Marc Gasol, Nikola Pekovic, Josh Smith, Derrik Favors, Faried

League stats: MIN, FG%, FTA, FT%, 3PT, 3PT%, PTS, REB, AST, ST, BLK, TO, T

(I'm low in FG%, FT%, 3PT%, REB, BLK)

Josh Smith - 22 minutes - 30% from the field, 3 FTA, 0% for free throws, six points, 2 rebounds, a steal, an assist and a block. Is that the crappiest line ever from a #1 pick? What in heck do I do with this guy?

Vucevic - played well but only 25 minutes? WHY? Give the guy minutes.

Klay Thompson - What a freaking bust! 0 of 7 at the half? He's been doing this crap all season! He's my WORST player!

I'm sure I'll have more complaints later. What the heck.

Wait, your league uses minutes, technicals, and free throw attempts as scoring categories?

Yes, minutes, technicals and free throw attempts are all scored. I know, my commissioner's weird. I've never played in another b-ball league though. So that's a weird thing?

Josh Smith was one of my three keepers (along with Love). I feel your pain. I'm entertaining trade offers for Smith.

Yeah Josh Smith as a first rounder is proving to be a huge disappointment. I have already started shopping around to see what people who give up for him at this point. I'm not sure if its because of the trade talks but it is sure disappointing to see a number 1 pick perform at that level.

The extra scoring categories are unusual and seem to be somewhat arbitrary. The standard scoring categories are:
8 Cat: FG%, FT%, PTS, 3PT, REB, AST, STL, BLK
9 Cat: 8 Cat + TO
