The habit points leagues teach — add up both sides and take the bigger number — is how category-league managers lose trades. A package can gain value overall and still hand away three of the nine races, which loses more weeks than it wins. So this tool settles a deal twice: once on total value, and once category by category, showing which races each side gains and which it concedes. Percentage categories carry their volume weighting, so a trade that looks neutral on free-throw percentage can move it a long way once attempts are counted.

No. It values players on nine-category production from last season. Adjust for your own scoring, roster size and what your team already has plenty of.
