Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: NetsGM on March 22, 2005, 07:48:32 PM The Bulls select:
Emmanuel Griffin, C, St. Joseph's (I hadn't even noticed this about him until now, cool). Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: CavsGM on March 22, 2005, 07:56:45 PM Yeah, I saw that he was from St Joes when I checked him out. A local boy, lol.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: BullsGM-old on March 22, 2005, 08:11:25 PM I'm happy with Griffin, he's the cornerstone of my franchise right now.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: HornetsGM on March 23, 2005, 02:42:41 AM Griffin is the dark horse of this draft.
If his potential is legit, he should have been a top pick in this draft (if NJ was not set at the 4,5, I really think he would have gone #2). Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: SonicsGM on March 23, 2005, 04:23:12 AM I think, especially if he can be moved to the PF spot, Griffin could be the steal of the draft. He has the skills and potential to become an absolute stud.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 23, 2005, 07:17:46 AM I think the Bulls would be better to keep the rookie at his natural position, and move Curry to PF.
Which, as I look at the Positional Changes, they did. Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: GoldenStateGM on March 23, 2005, 09:47:33 AM Griffin is good all around, with the potential to be great... If his potential pans out, he is easily a franchise player.
Wow, a draft with 4 likely franchise players... that is very impressive. But you have to figure one of them wil not work out. Who will it be??? lol Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: BullsGM-old on March 23, 2005, 06:31:21 PM Quote from: GoldenStateGM Griffin is good all around, with the potential to be great...

Who will it be??? lol I think Tanner and Pettit are guarenteed, if one of the 4 don't pan out it will be either Ferry or Griffin.

Which, as I look at the Positional Changes, they did. I still don't know how I'm goin to work my rotation, right now I'm just experimenting with the positional changes. Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 23, 2005, 06:33:50 PM It's a good idea. But I don;t think Players ratings change when they move, do they?
Because didn't someone move Kobe to C, and his defense stayed the same? Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: CavsGM on March 23, 2005, 06:45:53 PM I think the ratings do change.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 23, 2005, 06:48:12 PM Oh, Aiight. My bad.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: SonicsGM on March 23, 2005, 06:48:35 PM I think the defensive ratings change the most. If Kobe moves to Center, his defense will suffer.
However, when a player is moved to a similar position (like when I moved Ben Wallace from c to pf) the ratings may not change as much, if at all. Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 23, 2005, 06:49:59 PM Ahh, well, I thought we had a big discussion earlier about Kobe's A- defense as a 5.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: CavsGM on March 23, 2005, 06:54:39 PM Quote from: RaptorsGM Ahh, well, I thought we had a big discussion earlier about Kobe's A- defense as a 5. I thought we had a discussion where Kobe's A- defense changes to C+ at center. Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: BullsGM-old on March 23, 2005, 06:55:19 PM Well Curry seemed to do very well at the PF after I traded away Ben Gordan (I think he was averaging something like 18 ppg), so I do't think Curry will suffer too much if he gets moved. Although he was the number one option on my team then...
BTW, can Griffins ratings go up (or down) during the training camp? Or is the rating you drafted him at, the rating he stays with for his rookie season. Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 23, 2005, 06:57:10 PM Yeha, his ratings can change.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: CavsGM on March 23, 2005, 06:57:34 PM Anyone and everyone has the possibility of changing this training camp.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: BullsGM-old on March 23, 2005, 07:12:55 PM Sweet, but if there was one player I would have improve this training, it would be Dunleavy. I really hope he goes up a few points.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 23, 2005, 07:15:02 PM Yeah, wouldnt it be sweet if we got like 3 ratings changes, and got to use them?
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: NetsGM on March 23, 2005, 07:17:31 PM some leagues do that.
No thanks. Takes randomness from the game. Also makes it easy to get superstars. Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: RaptorsGM on March 23, 2005, 07:19:14 PM Yeah, I know what you mean. I could just turn Vince into an A+ outside AND A+ inside shooter.
Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: BullsGM-old on March 23, 2005, 07:20:25 PM Quote from: RaptorsGM Yeah, wouldnt it be sweet if we got like 3 ratings changes, and got to use them? Thats would never work, you could turn a decent starter to a superstar in a matter of 2-3 years. Title: With the 4th Pick Post by: CavsGM on March 23, 2005, 09:28:43 PM Yeah, I wouldn't like it if we got to change the ratings ourselves. I like it better how it is.
