I just got a message from HawksGM. He told me that the only way we're going to continue this sim league if all the GMs would agree to increase Dr.J's inside from 80 to 98. And his Defense from 85 to 95. I hope everyone's ok with that.

don´t open Pandora's box

you know there is a certain gm who would love to have all his players ratings increased because they played better in real 

[PacersGM]

Yeah, i agree. Having 5 top 5 picks in the lineup and not being able to make the playoffs is way more realistic.

We should have a Celebration of Mediocricy Day here with you as a vice president.

did you ever hear from a team called hawks or clippers or even bulls in the first 6 years of rebuilding in the real nba.
you are the only who thinks that a top 5 pick is automatic an all star or more. in fact more often than not top 5 picks are underachieving their whole career here and in the nba.

[KingsGM-old]

You're right. Past several top picks in NBA such as Lebron James, Dwayne Wade, Dwight Howard, Carmelo Anthony, they've all sucked. And their teams never made the playoffs.

[WizardsGM]

Dwight just made the playoffs for the first time in year 3, and it was largely because Grant Hill was able to play a full season, and not so much to do with Dwight leading the league in turnovers.

[KingsGM-old]

Dwight is also playin with trash so off course he can't do it all by himself. But when you have five top 5 picks in the lineup, and majority of them are already in their 3rd, 4th or even 5th season, then you know, you can at least expect to be a playoff team.

for every one on your list i can find 5 busts... like darko, j will, fizer, brown, curry, dunleavy.....
and not sure if i am right here but charlotte has very high draft picks in felton, okafor, morrison, may, wallace was a top 10 pick?, and can´t make it to the POs even in the weak east?????
also the old vancouver grizz had big country reeves, shareef and bibby and never made the POs.
and bulls had high picks like jwill, chandler, curry, fizer, crawford and we all know they are no at least all stars after 4 plus seasons...

your logic amaze me. first you are talking he is playing with trash for example a former number 2 pick like darko and another very high pick and known veteran in hill.
so after your posts before they had to be in the POs.
but now you swith your logic and post that high picks can be busts and howard had now chance because he played with busts.
hmm what would kobe and LB call their teammates after such a logic.

As i said million times, if you're an idiot, and take a complete no namer such as Darko Milicic over people like Wade or Carmelo etc, that by no means is a sign of a weak draft. JWill was injured so you can't call him a bust, Brown is a gigantic mistake by Jordan and Curry ain't that bad at all. He could be a very valuable player on a right team.

First, the majority of these players are just rookies or sophs. Plus, majority of them were injured last season. They're definitely going to be a very nice team in the near future.

also the old vancouver grizz had big country reeves, shareef and bibby and never made the POs.

Reeves - career ending injurie. 2 man alone, specially so young aren't enough in the tough west. I don't have 2 high picks, i have five, FIVE! And some of them are already veterans!

and bulls had high picks like jwill, chandler, curry, fizer, crawford and we all know they are no at least all stars after 4 plus seasons...

Those players were either injured or traded. How do you know Bulls wouldn't have been a playoff team had they kept that core together?

You obviously can't count 2 and 2. I already explained my thoughts on Darko (read above) and this line of yours is just too much for me;

another very high pick and known veteran in hill.

Yeah, when? Before 17 years and with 8 ankle surgeries behind him.
