Week 11 Roundup: Post Donk-Star Break Edition

Hope you all enjoyed the Midseason Donkies last post. This post will just be recapping the 1st week that was shortened by the Donk-Star Break so points for each week won't be that high. Let's get to it!

 

Stat Corrections:

- There were no stat corrections this week

 

Transactions:

- Arlington Assaulters added Blake Griffin and dropped Terrence Ross on March 7th

 

Standings as of March 8th, 2021

 

1. GG Foulin' -  5210 (+380)   

2. Pgastan FC - 4960 (+165) 

3. Oww Ming's Flagrants - 4955 (+215)   

4. Gamblor - 3850 (+125)

5. F'N FLOPPERS - 3830 (+195) 

6. Arlington Assaulters - 3810 (+375) 

7. Rodman'sWeddingDress - 3775 (+290) 

8. Baltimore Hitsquad - 3530 (+205) 

9. Ohsnappers!!! - 2270 (+165)

<= 195 points: Horrible week
200-295 points: Poor week
300-395 points: Average week
400-495 Points: Great Week
500-595 Points: Excellent Week
>=600 points: Amazing week

 

Ohsnappers!!! scored 165 points in this shortened week and stays comfortably in last place. Baltimore Hitsquad had a respectable 205 points in this 4-day week but stays in 8th place. Despite a nice score of 290 points Rodman'sWeddingDress falls to 7th place from 6th place. That's because Arlington Assaulters had an great abbreviated week of 375 points to move up to 6th place.

Arlington Assaulters is hot on the heels of F'N FLOPPERS who had a poor week of 195 points but stays in 5th place but only by 20 points. But Gamblor is only 20 points ahead of F'N FLOPPERS after they scored a league low 125 points in this 4-day week. 

Now the top tier gets interesting with Oww Ming's Flagrants scoring 215 points to stay in 3rd place but only 5 points behind Pgastan FC. The aforementioned Pgastan FC had a poor week of 165 points as he watches his team continue to slump and stays barely in 2nd place. GG Foulin' had a great shortened week of 380 points and extends his lead atop the standings. 

Points Graph:

  

Tier 5: Ohsnappers!!!

Tier 4: Baltimore Hitsquad

Tier 3: Gamblor, F'N FLOPPERS, Arlington Assaulters, Rodman'sWeddingDress

Tier 2: Pgastan FC, Oww Ming's Flagrants

Tier 1: GG Foulin'

The tiers are both becoming clearer and messier at the same time. Ohsnappers!!! stays in the bottom tier. I am moving Baltimore Hitsquad to a tier by themselves as they have fallen further behind the mega-cluster that is tier 3. Tier 3 is really interesting as only 75 points separates 4th through 7th. Pgastan FC has had a mighty fall from the top as his team continues to slump and could be in 3rd place by next week. GG Foulin' is in a tier by themselves atop the league though you could argue Tier 1 and Tier 2 should be combined as these three teams have been the cream of the crop all season and again are so far ahead that they are the only teams scoring above the league average. 

Well that's it for now.

Keep Foulin' Y'all!

2020-2021 Midseason Donkies

Given the shortened season due to the Pandemic we've already reached the Donk-Star Break! So you know what that means, Midseason Donkies! If you've been following the blog you know how the season has been so far so I won't reiterate on this post but check back on Monday for the regular weekly post. 

Let's get to the awards!

The Roger Murdock Persistent Fouling Award (Most Personal Fouls):
 Richaun Holmes leads the league at the break with 127 personal fouls

The Dennis Rodman Award (Most Ejections)

Donkies by Position  Note Stat Lines below are: (Personal Fouls-Foul Outs-Techies-Ejections-Flagrants):

PG: Kyle Lowry with 1070 points (94-0-6-2-2)

SG: Devin Booker with 885 points (93-0-8-1-0)

Midseason Most Valuable Fouler (MVF): Draymond Green with 1065 points (105-1-8-0-2) 

Let's look at a Foul Club by Foul Club breakdown of who has the most top 25 foulers heading into the break. I have yet to do this, this season so will be interesting to see what we get!

Team Name - Number of Foulers in top 25 (specific rank of those players)
*Player currently injured 
Teams in order of current standings

Pgastan FC - 3 (4th, 7th, 20th)
GG Foulin' - 6 (1st, 14th, 16th, 19th, 21st, 22nd)

Gamblor - 1 (2nd)
Oww Ming's Flagrants - 5 (5th, 8th, 17th, 23rd, 25th)
Rodman'sWeddingDress - 1 (13th)
Arlington Assaulters - 2 (6th, 10th)
Ohsnappers!!! - 2 (9th, 15th)
Baltimore Hitsquad - 4 (11th, 12th, 18th, 24th)
F'N FLOPPERS -1 (3rd)

As usual, all top 25 players are rostered by foul clubs. Ohsnappers!!! hasn't really been paying attention so his best foulers are stuck on the bench. Every foul club has at least one top 25 fouler which doesn't always happen. The number of top 25 foulers on each foul club isn't directly correlated to the standings this time but it is close an GG Foulin' has now taken the league lead and he has the most. Baltimore Hitsquad, currently, in 8th place, but has the 3rd most top 25 foulers, so he's not doing a good job managing his foulers it appears. 

Well that's it for now. Be sure to check back on Monday for our regular roundup post!

Keep Foulin' Y'all!

Week 10 Roundup: Standings Shakeup Edition

Well we have had some movement in the standings and this time it's not only at the bottom, it's at the top! Without further ado, let's see what happened.

Stat Corrections:

- There were no stat corrections this week

 

Transactions:

- Pgastan FC added Isaac Okoro on February 28th

- Arlington Assaulters added Marc Gasol and dropped Cecil Osman on February 28th

Standings as of March 1st, 2021

 

1. GG Foulin' -  4830 (+620)   

2. Pgastan FC - 4795 (+350) 

3. Oww Ming's Flagrants - 4740 (+810)   

4. Gamblor - 3725 (+415)

5. F'N FLOPPERS - 3635 (+330) 

6. Rodman'sWeddingDress - 3485 (+335) 

7. Arlington Assaulters - 3435 (+255) 

8. Baltimore Hitsquad - 3325 (+295) 

9. Ohsnappers!!! - 2105 (+180)

<= 195 points: Horrible week
200-295 points: Poor week
300-395 points: Average week
400-495 Points: Great Week
500-595 Points: Excellent Week
>=600 points: Amazing week

 

Ohsnappers!!! had a horrible week of 180 points and stays in last place. Baltimore Hitsquad had a poor week of 295 points and stays in 8th place. Arlington Assaulters had a poor week of 255 points and falls from 6th to 7th. Rodman'sWeddingDress had an average week of 335 points and moves up to 6th from 7th place. 

 

F'N FLOPPERS had an average week of 330 points and stays in 5th place. Gamblor had a great off of 415 points and stays in 4th place.

 

It's at the top where all the craziness happened this week. Oww Ming's Flagrants had one of hte best weeks on record (though I don't have exact records of this I can only anecdotally think of a few times where someone scored more than 700 points in a week). He had an amazing week of 820 points and while he stays in 3rd place he has closed the gap on 2nd and 1st. Pgastan FC had an average week of 350 points and falls out of first place for the first time since week 2. Pgastan FC had no performance fouls last week which definitely hurt. GG Foulin' had an amazing week of 620 points and moves into 1st place from 2nd place This is the first time GG Foulin' is in 1st place all season. 

Points Graph:

Tier 5: Ohsnappers!!!

Tier 4: Baltimore Hitsquad

Tier 3: Rodman'sWeddingDress, Arlington Assaulters

Tier 2: Gamblor, F'N FLOPPERS

Tier 1: GG Foulin', Pgastan FC, Oww MIng's Flagrants

The points graph is where you can really visualize the craziness from this week. So Ohsnappers!!! remains at the bottom with tier 5 locked up. I decided to put Baltimore Hitsquad in a tier by themselves at the bottom just because he is over 100 points away from tier 3 and you can see the gap in the graph though in all likelihood they could be in tier 3. 

Rodman'sWeddingDress and Arlington Assautlers are neck and neck when it comes to tier 3 and F'N FLOPPERS and Gamblor are pretty close for tier 2 separated by only 90 points. Again, every team under tier 1 is under the league average (the dotted line) so that just shows you how well tier 1 is performing this season. 

As for tier 1, you can see the crazy jump that Oww Ming's Flagrants made with their 820 point week to vault into the title race. Likewise, you can see the slow decline Pgastan FC has made to fall out of 1st place. Finally, you can see the sprint to 1st place over the last 2 weeks from GG Foulin' as well. 

 

Though one could argue for a simple tier structure like so:

Tier 3: Ohsnappers!!!

Tier 2: Gamblor, F'N FLOPPERS, Rodman'sWeddingDress, Arlington Assaulters, Baltimore Hitsquad

Tier 1: GG Foulin', Pgastan FC, Oww Ming's Flagrants

 

Now week 10 is the half-way point for this pandemic-shortened season so if this is any indication how the 2nd half will play out we could be in for a treat and a title race that goes down to the wire! 

Well that's it for now.

Keep Foulin' Y'all!
