If anyone has been following any of the NBBA forum posts, Mediocrity has been providing the NBBA with weekly power rankings. I saw this and was inspired by his creativity and he was generous enough to show me how he calculates it.
The way the system works is it gathers data from buzzermanager and ranks teams on a 400 point scale. With 100 points coming from each of the following categories:
W/L record
Point Differential
Total Team Salary
Cup performance
I have tweaked the formula for our league and lessened the importance of cup performance down to 85 points and redistributed the difference to the other three categories. I believe this more accurately portrays DIV 2. If you have any more questions about the system I encourage you to go check out Mediocrity's post in the NBBA forum.
But without further adieu, here are our division's power rankings after 4 1/2 weeks of play:
1. Deronimo (7-2) - Off(1), Def(4), Rating (399.85)
