I couldn't care less if you agree with me. I didn't invent the sim, but my grasp of its workings & mechanics is almost unrivaled. I have helped many owners understand many aspects of it, including the topic in question. I have as many championships (73) as teams you've played in (73).
But since you really, really want the attention:
The seasons I'd use for the trio he's drafted, I'd have 66.5% cumulative drb% with 22% orb%. I have plenty of ast%, so I can afford to get wings that don't necessarily pass as much, opening many guys that rebound more to me. There's no way those two guys (as well as the rotation guys I will draft) aren't giving me at least 10/30, so now we're talking 32%/96.5% minimum. That's not quite as high as I would typically aim for, but it's not far off, and it's certainly not below average, and it's certainly enough to win this league.
But I don't know who he's going to draft (he's apparently using a different Kidd than I would, so even more boards). He might end up with 41/114. He might go lower. I don't know who he's going to pick, much less the other 23 owners, so I'm not going to make some asinine projection saying that 2, 12 or 22 teams will out rebound him, and simply don't care who you think will or won't.
(although Ben will almost assuredly be near the top with the start he's had & knowing the way he builds teams. I feel comfortable making that prediction)
I'm taking 05-06 Kidd so it's 3/18 creb and 90d and f--- the 48 efg for just 2 pts of usage (as opposed to the 55% efg for 1 pt) - I'm already at 60%+ asg so that's taken care of, I have two-way 90 Ds on the wing and block and Serge is a 98 at 3 positions - I've got 10.5k minutes and 19.8m to spend, 14 pts of usage on board so just need to supplement at the backstop positions and could use some threes prolly - that would be my evaluation.... {but what do I know?}
(and P.S. DREB is currently 86% with 4 drafted and that's if I even start the Joker and dont just have him as a super sub and bring on even more boards and D ;})
