I've installed it and based on what I see, I agree with Coach Regan, it appears to collect data from the transfer market. All my players ratings lineup with when I've put them up to be sold or bought them. It appears that buzzerbeaterdb began collecting data in early 2012 or sometime around that.

In general, I think you'll only be getting a few players that are useful per team and they may or may not be the players you want to know about. I mean, if a team signed a player off the transfer market a year ago and he's 23, then it's not particularly useful. For example, on my team, out of the top 9 players; 4 of them are not close anymore, 5 of them are reasonably close.

In addition, buzzerbeaterdb will only be giving you Driving, Jump Range, Rebounding, Handling, Stamina, Shot Blocking and Experience for free, the rest you would have to pay for. So... *shrug* Since you can collect so much useful data for game planning through third party sites, I'm not sure how helpful it really is.

Thanks for the info guys. I'll avoid using the site, part of the fun of BB for me is having to guess how best to tackle each team !

Once you get more and more experienced in the game, its pretty easy to work out certain player stats.

A PF that shoots really high FG% probably has good DR and JS. If he shoots a good 3pt% then he probably has good JR as well.

a C that turns the ball over a lot has low handling.

a PG that doesn't shoot a high FG% has low IS

etc etc etc
