Iverson and Nash were good picks. Still young enough that they will be around for a while, but already established enough that those teams will be able to win now.

There goes Dirk.
I think the first 6 picks or so have gone as expected. I figured Nash would go maybe a few picks later but it's a good pick anyway. There's 1 guy I'm expecting to go real soon.

Just so people clarify there are two different potentials.
Actual Potential and Scouted Potential. Scouted potential is the one everyone sees. Actual potential you don't see.
So guys like Joe Johnson who has an F in scouted potential, that's not the real potential. I will change it.

So far I'm pretty impressed with the GMs. No one's made a huge reach or anything.

Scouted potential will generally be pretty close to actual potential, but not exact. Kind of like how if you sent an actual scout out to watch these guys, they might make some mistakes in their rankings. So it should give you a general understanding, and most of the time will be be pretty close to their actual potential, but there will be cases where that is not the case. How that effects your draft strategy is up to you.

ya I responded.
Its best guys if you have major questions to post them here as I will see them faster.
Also, Poetic is now a draft mod and overall mod for the time being.
You will also now send him PM's for draft lists and if I am not here and the time limit is up he has the authority to then check his draft lists and if there is a list pick highest available for that GM and if there isn't a list he will then have authority to make that selection for that GM.

I'm interest in landing another first round pick. I can trade future firsts and some later round picks. My 2nd rounder + A future first for a 1st rounder. You guys gotta read the rules... From the Creation Draft Rules Thread... Matt "TRADING PICKS You can trade your creation picks. You can't trade future first or second round picks however for creation picks." Matt said you can trade ANY picks. Current or Future. He will create a IOU board to keep track of these moves. The game does not allow it but in the other league they do the IOU thread and work it out.

Thanks Matt for promoting me to mod.
Nice pick 20x4. 'Shard looks good ratings wise.

Thanks Matt for promoting me to mod. Nice pick 20x4. 'Shard looks good ratings wise. Yeah, I struggled with it a little bit. There is one other guy who I think might be a little better, but I just wanted Rashard more. Plus, he has the exact same ratings as Dirk who went #6 in everything but Inside Scoring where Dirk is a B and Rashard is a B- So I'm satisfied. Watch out for the Eastern Conference Powerhouse Hornets
