lol Bro that was funny but I do feel bad. You gotta be used to the Sixers messing up things with star players though, they have a clear history of this lol. Trading Barkley, Iverson, Jrue, etc. MCW is going to get good maybe then traded as well it's the philly cycle lol.

You're the man bro thanks! I was thinking along these lines as well. Can you believe this class I downloaded the guy had them from rated 85 on down and every player has atleast 3-5 signature skills that I can't take off -_- lol

Re: Rookie Ratings

a 72 for zeller would be a little too generous IMO. Maybe I'm just so annoyed by that pick for the Bobcats

Re: Rookie Ratings

i thought dieng would have been a better pick for OKC, but i still like adams, i was very impressed by his shooting during the combine, and frankly i think he should have gone before noel, but thats just my opinion *im VERY low on nerlens, too thin, no offense, questionable durability, can he defend without standing in the paint the entire shot clock*

Re: Rookie Ratings

You guys are seriously overestimating these players' abilities. Potential is one thing, current OVR on the NBA scale is entirely another. My take (with correct teams):

65 1. Cavs: Anthony Bennett SF/PF - UNLV
70 2. Magic: Victor Oladipo SG - Indiana
67 3. Wizards: Otto Porter SF - Georgetown
67 4. Bobcats: Cody Zeller C - Indiana
61 5. Suns: Alex Len C - Maryland
63 6. Sixers: Nerlens Noel PF/C - Kentucky
71 7. Kings: Ben McLemore SG - Kansas
66 8. Pistons: Kentavious Caldwell-Pope SG - Georgia
67 9. Jazz: Trey Burke PG - Michigan
62 10. Blazers: CJ McCollum PG/SG - Lehigh
64 11. Sixers: Michael Carter-Williams PG - Syracuse
58 12. Thunder: Steven Adams C - Pittsburgh
66 13. Celtics: Kelly Olynyk C - Gonzaga
65 14. Wolves: Shabazz Mohammed SG/SF - UCLA
54 15. Bucks: Giannis Antetokounmpo SF - Greece
55 16. Hawks: Lucas Noguiera PF/C - Germany
60 17. Hawks: Dennis Schroeder PG - Germany
66 18. Mavericks: Shane Larkin- PG- Miami
64 19. Cavs: Sergey Karasev SG/SF - Russia
61 20. Bulls: Tony Snell SG/SF- New Mexico

-Changed the teams to the ones that hold the actual draft rights.
-Antetokounmpo's ratings are mad low because he's only 18 and easily the most raw player in the draft. Crazy potential, but is relatively worthless at the moment. He won't be coming to the NBA for at least another year or two anyway; he's a stash pick.
-No, I'm not biased about Larkin just because I'm a Mavs fan. By analytics, he's the 9th best prospect in the draft and he was "wowing" scouts at workouts like crazy.
-McLemore should have highest potential rating in the group; McCollum, Olynyk and Larkin should be on the low end of that stat.
-Len and Noel are particularly low because their OVERALL should be low. They only do a few things well (defense, blocking for Noel and add a little post offense for Len), but obviously you can be elite at those few things and still be in the 70s in this game.

Just my two cents.

My opinion. I don't watch a lot of college basketball, doing this from scouting reports and general knowledge of their play styles.
