April 26, 2020 - New Feature
The NBA has changed a lot over the years. It used to have 8 teams and now it has 30. Prior to 1979-80 there wasn't a 3-point shot. And even when it came it wasn't used much. In the 1989/90 season there were only 6.6 threes per game. Now we are at 33.9 per game.
One other big thing that has changed is scoring in general. During the 1961-62 season there were 118.8 pts/game. Then after falling for years it bottomed at 93.4 pts/game during the 2003/04 season. Now thanks to the increasing usage of the 3-point shot it is back up to 111.4 pts/game.
Grizzled GM Basketball now takes these things into consideration. So if you play in a league and it is prior to 2000 big men are going to matter more. If your league is in the 2010s they will matter less. You can check how the league has adjusted if you go to the Team Stats page in the game, which shows stats for every year you have played your league.
In addition to the above, I also made some adjustments to player development, contracts, league creation, and maybe more things. A lot of new features have come. So I'm refining still. If it isn't exactly how you think it should be let me know. I may be able to make an adjustment. Thanks!
