Alright, so I’ve been messing around with this fantasy basketball thing for a while now, and I gotta say, those rankings on FantasyPros? They’re something else. I mean, I’ve been trying to figure out how to get my team in tip-top shape, you know? So, I started by diving deep into these rankings.
First off, I spent a good chunk of time just staring at the screen, scrolling through this endless list of players. I was checking out who’s ranked where, who’s hot, who’s not, all that jazz. It’s a lot to take in, honestly. FantasyPros has this thing where they rate how accurate these “experts” are. They compare their predictions to what actually happens in the games. Fancy, huh?
So, I’m there, right? I started digging into these expert rankings. I noticed some of them are pretty good, especially with certain positions. Like, I saw one expert was really accurate on TE rankings. They got, like, 20% of their rankings within 2 spots of the actual result. Not too shabby.
But here’s the kicker – it seems like they don’t do this accuracy challenge for basketball. At least, that’s what I gathered. And get this, their consensus rankings only have opinions from about 15 experts. That’s not a whole lot when you think about it.
Then, I started thinking, there are probably a bunch of people out there who are really good at this but don’t get the spotlight, you know? It seems tough for them to get noticed. FantasyPros has this accuracy competition thing, which I guess is supposed to help with that. It aims to give those undiscovered experts a chance to shine.
I spent a few more hours comparing different experts, trying to see if I could spot any patterns. Some were better with guards, others with forwards. It’s a whole mixed bag. I even tried to make my own rankings based on what I was seeing, just to see if I could do any better. Let me tell you, it’s not as easy as it looks!
My Conclusion
- Checked out FantasyPros rankings.
- Noticed they rate expert accuracy.
- Found out they don’t do accuracy challenges for basketball.
- Realized there are probably many undiscovered experts.
- Compared different expert rankings.
- Attempted to create my own rankings.
In the end, I realized it’s a fun but complicated game. And I’m not sure if I’m any closer to winning my league, but hey, at least I’m learning a thing or two. This whole FantasyPros experience? It’s been a wild ride, that’s for sure.
