nevertheless, Kevin Johnson would be a baller.

YOU - WERE - EXPECTING - HIM - TO - DRAFT - PIPPEN  ????????
And thus did put DROb / KJ in your draft file ?

wow, amazing.
and i won't even talk about WHY you were expecting this, after DRob only is the 2nd best player (rating-wise) entering the draft in the last 10 seasons (behind only Sampson).


Well, don't worry.
Once you got a season or two exerience in these sim leagues you will find out how to prepare for a draft. One advice: ask. Ask the other guys, ask the commissioner, most of the time everyone will be helpful. And always remember, the rest of us has started playing in sim leagues too, so none of us was born "Master GM", so count this as part of the rookie learning process ...

btw, on my list Kevin Johnson is the 5th best PG entering this draft.
(for the record, Mark, Kenny, Muggsy and Jose being the 4 ahead)

ok, I learned not to trust the formula always and everywhere, but it might have something to do with that B- handling and skinny frame that won't really make him a good defender at SG even if he develops a decent shot

(and since he was a career 49% shooter there's at least hope ... even if KJ won't be great behind the arc, only twice in his 12 seasons he shot better than 23% for treys)

Very Happy



I would have to say, I made a mistake having KJ on top of Pippen on my list, but, hey, as I said, at least I know where Kevin Johnson is headed.

edit: removed the first 2 paragraphs. It might affect other players' stock.

*lol* now that would go too far !!!

what'S worrisome is that B- handling means he's either not a good passer or turns it over in bunches. And even 100 pot won't cure that easily.

another?

now KJ over Pippen is questionable, but KJ over a turnover machine with mediocre passing and at best average man defense is definitely not !

My gut feeling..

D-rob has awful potential. (told ya)

Pippen has poor potential.

KJ has good potential.

even if Robinson has 40 true pot he should be selected over anybody. Hardly ever we had such a clear #1 like this season.


(btw, a very low true pot usually means the player doesn't improve a lot, maybe even loses a rating or two over the next 6-7 seasons. And I still can't see anybody else topping him by then)

First of all, Sixers never scouted DRob's potential.  We've been over that.

Second of all, if anyone takes anyone in this class over DRob because of potential, they're crazy.

well, true. But IF Robinson had that type of potential it would be the same situation with Oscar Ferry.
