Rank) Team (GM) (Record, Avg)- (last ranking)

1) L.A. 2ManyNapkins (RBO) (33-7, 305.7) - (1): Best record and Best average. Second lowest opponent avg (269) is definitely helping though. RBO might actually win this thing. Clear cut favorite.

2) Ozarks GOBs (Ceej) (28-12, 303.7) - (4): Early unbelievable losses are falling by the wayside. 3rd best average and legit contender.

3) Chi.ESL ILL-STATERS!! (Commish) (27-13, 304.8) - (2): 2nd highest average. Bit rocky after the long win streak and also had some moderately negative injuries. Fav as long as AD is healthy.

4) Barcelona Yoshi (TJT) (24-16, 298.7) - (6): 8pt avg jump since last rankings has put TJT's squad in the drivers seat in the Black conference. Also a legit title contender.

5) Bavaria Bratwursts (theothursdays) (23-17, 284.4) - (7): Theo's team is 19-7 since slow start. Had he started the season with the same winning percentage, he'd be 29-11 right now. Clear dark horse contender.

6) Tribeca HiBrows (ErnieGOAT) (22-18, 293.3) - (5): Jonas going down really hurt this team, so much so that almost everyone decided to slump. Good news is, he should be back soon and maybe IT gets a nod and boosts the champs prospects from looking like a sinking ship.

7) Atwater Kuzmaniacs (RyanM) (21-19, 281.8) - (13): The Atwater is slowly rising (18 ppg higher avg since last rankings). Not sure if Dwight even plays this season but if he does, could be huge boon for Ryan's squad come playoffs.

8) Coney Island Bad Boys IX (Cenario) (22-18, 280.1) - (3): Deputy Commish's team has struggled without KLove and with him not being back until around Allstar break, could get bad (7-12 since last rankings).

9) Waiters Isle Rappity Raps (DJR3) (21-19, 283.7) - (8): I think this team is the definition of median. But a 300 avg over the last 10 could change that if it keeps up.

10) ASSUNCION Cit 11:19 am'ers (Shawndme7) (19-21, 273.6) - (12): Just beat me by 2 friggin' points and costs me my #2 ranking by deciding to put up the highest gameday score (hadn't do so in last 9 games). Was starting to make a turn then Rondo goes down and now Rubio's down. Shawn's team could be dangerous as a lower seed come playoffs if he makes it in, right now he wouldn't...2 games out.

11) Englewood GunViolence (DVS) (20-20, 268.7) - (15): team on a little uptick (12-8 since last rankings) to climb to .500. Hovering around 291 over the last 10. DVS might be making a covert run at the Black conference come playoffs.

12) Houston HardHead KDB (LABeat) (19-21, 270.3) - (10) Almost a twin to DVS's team (Same avg and record over last 10). Black conference started slow but is becoming a gauntlet as the season goes on.

13) Oakland Cardpullers (MrHood) (16-24, 272) - (11): On a 3 game W streak to bring the record since last rankings to 7-12.

14) Stanley Forms a Wall (Boogs) (18-22, 267.8) - (14): Two game slump but slowly bringing the average back to respectability. Has the lowest opponent avg in the league (268).

15) Gonzo's Ghoulies (Gonzo) (18-22, 251.9) - (9): Has somehow managed to go 9-11 over the last 20 while putting up 239 a game. 0-5 in most recent games though (211 avg).

16) Restown Smerf City Slamz (Smerf) (10-30, 253.9) - (18): Golf claps to Smerf! He didn't simply roll over and die. While he'd need something like a 15-0 run to challenge for a playoff spot, he's no longer the bottom b*tch of survivor (for now).

17) Magellan City Billonairos (magilla) (11-29, 253.245.4) - (17): 2-8 in last 10, 232 avg, lost 5 straight. Ugck (c) Pusha T

18) Washington DC Brunchers (Basa) (8-32, 236) - (16): Zion Williamson looks like Duke's Vince Carter. Will be fun watching him develop over the next few years. Basa on the other hand is 2-17 since the last rankings. Surely CP3 isn't THAT important.

Tony Parker - 20ppg, 1.10fppm
Oct. 12: Dropped by Washington DC

I picked up Brogdon (31/1.06) and Wright (18/1.01) off waivers.

And there's probably a few other G options that would have worked (J.Lin-22/1.17 was on waivers too). You weren't pressed enough.

glad Noel is gonna be alright, but keeping him and zeller on roster is wasting minutes. and with the additional 2 teams and IR slots, Cs are slim pickings this season.
