Introduction: Noto's Lineup-Building Manual

Hello and welcome to another RotoAcademy NBA course. Over the years I have written quite a few and have a couple of video courses as well. I have covered everything you could possibly need to know from a research standpoint. Where to look for injuries, how to project minutes, how to identify favorable matchups, and which statistics are the most predictive. The list goes on and on. The only missing piece is how to put it all together to build lineups.

This course is going to focus on the process of optimal lineup construction. It’s an easier read than my other courses because the concepts are based more around strategy than they are around numbers. A few subjects of the course are as follows:

• Common lineup building mistakes
• The value of an all-value approach
• When to play and when to avoid the chalk
• How to balance player exposures across multiple lineups

Let’s get started!
