Another week, another notebook drop! Here's the main changes that I've made to my projections over the past 7 days:
Boston Celtics:

Hey all - we’re starting to hit that part of the seasons where projections are kinda stable, so most of the movement is based on injuries and playing time changes, but here are the main changes that have happened over the past week.
Atlanta Hawks:

Hey everyone - with the fantasy football season winding down I was hoping to get your feedback on my first attempt at a fantasy football website.

There won't be a whole lot of changes this week with each team only playing twice last week (outside of the IST Final). Players have had some extra time to rest up except for LA and Indiana, but don't be surprised to see guys like AD or LeBron have their minutes limited at some point this week (LA has a B2B on TUE-WED against Dallas and San Antonio).
Chicago Bulls:

Hey everyone - got some quick feedback on the new logo, so I've made an edit and putting up a new poll.
Which do you prefer? The thinner text (top) or thicker text (bottom)?

Hey everyone - I'm hoping to get some quick feedback. I still need to update the logo on the website, and I was hoping to get some instant reactions to see if I need to tweak anything a little more.
I've make the text a little thinner to match the new logo. What do y'all think? Any suggestions? Which do you prefer? Top (the new logo) or bottom (current logo).

Hey everyone,
Keeper is now live, and I've added a few tweaks based on your suggestions.
I'd really appreciate it if you helped spread the word by retweeting and sharing this post on Twitter/X. The more people voting the better the data will be.

Hey everyone - wanted to share with y'all something that I've been working on.
It’s my attempt at building a crowdsourcing set of dynasty rankings based on you selecting between two players (similar to Keep Trade Cut for those who have used it before).

Hey all - wanting to get your input on what tool you'd like made next for Hashtag Basketball.
Option 1 is automatically creating a web page for your league that can be shared with your league mates. This would leverage ChatGPT to create matchup recaps and use various data I'm able to source using the same API used to import data. I'd have to do some sums to calculate how much this would c...
