chiliad's NBA 2K13 Draft Classes (PS3)

Re: chiliad's NBA 2K13 Draft Classes (PS3)

So is the 2013 class pretty much set? I ask because I'm going to do a similar fictional draft project but I figured since I'm using bed's rosters I should make the draft classes similar to yours.

It's set as far as every aspect possible being edited. The only thing that may change is a couple of players here and there depending on performance once the season gets started. Some may get ratings changes or get bumped from the class for someone who's performing better. But if you're looking to model your class after this one then yes, everything is complete.

Chiliad to start off I love the work you do. But as a fellow draft class creator i was just wondering which of the prospect analyzers do you trust the most (I really enjoy Mike Schmitz video analysis) and do you trust nbadraft.net at all or any other website other than draftexpress.com

I stay away from nbadraft.net completely unless they're the only source where I can possibly find info about a guy. I trust Chad Ford of ESPN's reputation more than I do Jonathan Givony at DraftExpress, but Draft Express goes far more in depth in their analysis. You can't go wrong using either Ford or Givony though.

What website do you go to for Mock Drafts? I think nbadraft.net are the best at them.

Could you do a big board of the prospects for each class? For those of us doing 30 team control it would nice to have a guideline.

I like Draft Express. But I don't put much faith in any mock drafts at this point in the season.

They have definitely messed up the draft this year. I am working on a set of my own, and I had two guys projected as top 5 go 21st and 26th overall. Not sure what is up with that.

It's a common glitch.

Best to do 30 team control associations.

I know it was documented before, I just don't get what they did. Last year it would pretty much go as predicted so you could manipulate the draft order much better without full 30 team control.

Do you have to download all draft classes at once or can you does it ask you to load a class each year? I've never made it that far in association.

its asks you if you want to download a draft class right at the start of year 1. i hope you have made it that far lol.

Not sure if I missed it but what is going to be the difference between V1 and V2?

Have you started working on the 2014 class, yet? Btw, great job on 2013.

Re: chiliad's NBA 2K13 Draft Classes (PS3)

First of all love your work! You did an excellent job on this and can't wait to start my association. Secondly, which classes are Aquille Carr and Shaquille Johnson going to be in? They are two of my favorite college players.

1 question.. why do u have the potentials set almost the same as the current overall rating? Don't u want them to develop?

You start putting potential ratings 80 and above and watch players jump 5 to 8 points overall in a single offseason. Including scrub bench players who shouldn't. Then that opens up a whole crapload of other problems in future years

Version 2 will have slight ratings adjustments based on what I see in college basketball these next few weeks. I also plan on bumping most of the overalls up to 64 or better to match the scale Bedwardsroy19 has chosen to use with his roster. I'll probably do that by raising awareness, which should make the class play even better.

Please take the time to read the thread before asking questions. If you go back a page you can see I started work on the 2014 class but there's no timetable. I'm going to be working almost 70 hours a week through the holiday season so I expect progress to be very slow.

First of all love your work! You did an excellent job on this and can't wait to start my association. Secondly, which classes are Aquille Carr and Shaquille Johnson going to be in? They are two of my favorite college players.

If either of those guys make it in it would be in the 2016 class. Honestly I'm not sure either one will make the league. Carr is a 5'6" point guard who's old for his class and has off the court issues. Johnson was barely a top 100 recruit. I just don't see guaranteed NBA futures for either guy.

1 question.. why do u have the potentials set almost the same as the current overall rating? Don't u want them to develop?

They will develop perfectly fine. Unless your idea of development is to have nearly every player in the league rated in the 80s and 90s in a few years.
