I have a question.

Is there a better way to do the bb draft.. Not to be rude I think it a huge huge gamble and rip off. I would like to able to assign training for the draftee.. like mini camp.. See if he worth my training time for my team, not all teams are the same.. Maybe im looking for a defensive type of player or a solid rebounder for example. blind choosing is not answer and blind training regimes are not as well, in those cases.

I like to see his guessed strengths and weaknesses as well what kind of player he is, more indepth reporting.. Maybe compare him to a certain bb player of bb past that are great like top 100-200 players, or your own team hall of famers .

Just a little more indepth is all, not just some random results that fictionous and to help your team but does not in reality. Draft is about helping the team build for the future .. I Don't think bb does in the right fashion.. I fire most of my guys because if I get a guard and I already bought guards the season before, I really wasted my money in the draft..

Im just really worried about that aspect of the game, because it would help a lot of top teams and bottom save revenue.

Yes, now I trained shot block early and gave my pf and center js/ jr training. If you find regular bb pf/center they don't have outside defense neither does a guard have great inside defense. .

A big man with10-15 js/r is the key mismatch, this seems to favor them.. . Is it expensive that's a secrect, I wont let you in on. Just know im having great success this year..lol

To tell you frankly I'm loving the SB changes. Dunno if my league has gotten weaker but my inconsistent PF is having the time of his life leading the league in FG percentage (.614) and second in scoring at 25.7 points per game. MY team playing LI is at 53 percentage FG shooting also. So whatever the devs did seems to benefit the build my PF has which can shoot from the outside and midrange.

One thing we have noticed also is more teams in our country in league 2 seems to be shifting away from LI and going outside. Must be afraid of the SB changes.

yes I think it helps the game stay fresh and not allow them to get a cheap win just because they two 150K$ bigs.

My pf hopefully will get another mvp.. he had 10 blocks a few games ago a triple double. he is also shooting 400%from 3pt range. . I have some good players. that can shoot.

he is also shooting 400%from 3pt range

Again, impossible. Thought this was covered!
400% does not equal .400
40% equals .400

(edit: and in reply to (244443.100), .400% is another thing entirely)

I'm 150% sure that you're right on this one

I like this idea.

I suppose that it could be implemented by spending scout points as a way to increases the options of those who invest in the draft instead of giving more options to those who just guess by age and heigh...

Draft as constructed is great for D.IV and D.III, and decent for D.II - but useless for D.I. Biggest talent pool (MVPs and HOFs) is very shallow, so when I'm looking for a new trainee I'm always buying. I don't mind spending 1-2M on a 18y HoF because I know exactly what I'm getting.

Example: Let's say I'm looking for a center with OD at least 6 and there's a 5/5 C waiting for me in the draft, and I have a 1st pick. I pick him and his OD is 1. So I just waisted a pick.

It would make much more sense to be able to buy a pick from a team that has a great player and 1st pick rights. It's a gamble, sure, but so is a lot of picks in NBA (remember Royce White?)

He puts so much spin on the ball that after it goes through the basket, it bounces off the floor and back into the bucket three additional times. (Or, I guess, more than three since we'd think he'd miss some shots now and then and it still has to average 400%). I don't know how you can be so down on a guy who is capable of shooting 16 for 4 from beyond the arc.

Ah, yes, I forgot about the 518th hidden skill in the game.

its all the same, no need to perfect it for own betterment. it s .400% on the game not 40%. yes I know it same excact thing. stop being a woman among men all the time. its petty
