[Wayne TenBrink]

I like the concept of the OPS, since neither FiM (district points) score or OPR paints a complete picture (not that any system does).

Every year before MSC and CMP, I come up with my own rating system (WPR = Wayne's Power Rating). The formula is slightly different every year, depending on the game. I normally include just the draft and playoff components of the district score, omit award points, and replace qualification match points with OPR. I normalize and round off the values to yield a final ranking score between 1-10. I think you are kidding yourself if you get beyond 1 or 2 significant digits.

Regarding 2771 and defense - defense will not cause them to lose control of the ball during the "drop". You can't see it on video, but the drop path is protected with a fish line "safety net" that guides the ball into the shooter.
