With the 1st pick in the 2006 SSBA Draft

[RaptorsGM]

My only question (and I would have picked Tanner) is what happens if Tanner's actual potential is B, and Ferry's is C?

If that's the case, I think Ferry is much better.

However, if the potentials are accurate, this is the pick.

Nice job Hawks.

Then it becomes Ferry as the star of the 06 draft. But there is no way around that. As of right now, Tanner is the guy everyone in this League would have drafted as number 1.

I disagree.  If nobody's ratings ever change, I'd still take Tanner over Ferry.  5" and 60 lbs do matter in the frontcourt.

Not to mention, their ratings are nearly identical, no improvement.  Ferry's +1 inside, Tanner +2 outside.  Both same defense and rebounding.

And, if Tanner's a B, then improvement would still be likely.  Oscar's "D" potential has little chance of improving.

i agree here Tanner is worth the first pick. but there aren´t many 7´4´´ who are performing well in real (only ming). but this sim and the chances are great that he will be the next shaq. but i think he is more Z than shaq. i am looking forward to a matchup between ming and tanner or tanner and shaq should be fun.
