Could someone please explain Normalized Played to Sim Stats?

IM trying to understand what those two options do and how they affect myleague team. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you

I believe they would translate your played game stats to full game stats based on 12 minute quarters.

Easiest example is if you play 6 minute quarters but sim 12 minute quarters for the rest of the non-user teams. If you score 10 points in 15 minutes with LeBron, it translates that to 20 points in 30 minutes (I.e. A simmed 12 minute quarter game is exactly twice as much as your played 6 minute quarter game)

I haven't payed much attention since I play 11 minute quarters, but in theory that's what it should do.

Okay, gotcha so it should only be put on if you play less than 10 minute quarters?

Quarter Length: Is for Games Played

Simulated Quarter length: Is for Games simulated by you or cpu games in your MyLeague

When to turn on...

Normalize Sim Mins : If your Quarter Length differs from your Sim Quarter Length and you want your players to achieve there normal minutes, then turn on.

Normalize Sim Stats : If your Quarter Length differs from your Sim Quarter Length and you want your games played stats to normalize to whatever you set your Sim Quarter Length to be, then turn on.


If both your Quarter Length and Sim Quarter Length are equal. There is no need to normalize anything. All simulated games and played games are the same length, therefore your stats and mins played will not be skewed.

takes the stats each player in a played game accumulated, divides it by the total number of minutes in the game - 4 x your quarter length - and then multiplies that by 48.

for example, a player with 20 points in a 5 minute quarter game would have his points changed to 48

So if I play 9min quarters, simulated should be set at 9 or 10?

Re: Could someone please explain Normalized Played to Sim Stats?

Depends what you want to do... Do you want the sim stats to show up as if they were playing 9 minute quarters? Or do you want the sim stats to show as if games were being played in full (12 minute quarters)?

I would assume if you play at 9 minute quarters, you want simulated set at 9, in which case the "Normalize stats" features don't apply as both your games and the simulated games are both at 9 minute quarters...

People like us who use normalize sim stats play on smaller quarters. For example, I'm doing a franchise where I play my games at 6 minutes, the simulated games are set at 12 minutes, and I normalize all the games played to 12 minutes, so a game that ends 51-48 on 6 minute quarters would get adjusted to something like 112-105 after the stats are "normalized" to 12 minute quarters.

If you really need to see this to understand, just set a game up for 1 minute, set the normalize minutes to 12, and play the game. Go to the box score after, and the score and stats for the players will be adjusted as if they played 48 minutes instead of 4

Wouldn’t 51-48 on 6 min normalize to 102-96 on 12 min?

Re: Could someone please explain Normalized Played to Sim Stats?

Wouldn’t 51-48 on 6 min normalize to 102-96 on 12 min?

Maybe, I didn't actually do the calculation... Also, it's calculated on a per-quarter basis. So even if you had two games finish 51-48 it doesn't necessarily mean the both games would have the box score of 102-96. The most glaring issue with that would be that buzzer beaters technically aren't a thing when you normalize. I finished a game with a buzzer beater to win 52-50 and the final score was something like 88-84

That’s interesting because I play on 6 with 12 normalize and score always exactly doubles.

My mistake, I am playing on FIVE minute quarters with 12 minute sim, that's why it's not doubling in my save

Re: Could someone please explain Normalized Played to Sim Stats?

why do we have a 2 Page long Thread about this? are There so many around that dont understand something as simple as "Well your Stats are extrapolated as if you had played 12 Minute quarters"?!
