thats true but also they have made some updates already

Barnes and Mobley are 3 star rookies along Cade

And Green and Suggs the other top 5 picks aren't who have really struggled with EFF...so they have made some adjustments if they built the rookies.

I'm sure they will make a few more tweeks...but I have to believe some adjustments are already there for current year because of those rookie ratings.

Is Cade 3 stars by default for being a #1 pick? He hasn’t looked as good as Mobley or Barnes since he’s returned to warrant a 3 star IMO

thats my guess they probably want some separation from Cade and Green/Suggs because he was the #1 pick.

All I'm hoping is the respect Suggs defense. I saw a stat that Suggs already is the best P&R defender in the league. His offense has been god ugly but a lot of guards struggle with EFF. But his defense is exactly what I need with so many talented guards out west.

Luka a 5, Zion a 4, KP a 3...

My biggest disappointments is Harris, Rubio, and Bey not getting a 3; along with KP not getting at least a 3.5. For what its worth, Mitchell with a 3.5 does not make that trade look all that bad. KAT for KP and a lottery pick though is iffy now. But I been saying I should have asked for two 1st almost as soon as the trade was completed...

Sabonis ranked higher than Trae Young is pretty messed up!

I wouldn't worry too much. Oladipo for example has a better star rating but for what you need someone like Joe Harris will be much more valuable with his C&S ability and low usage.

When our team players individual ratings come out that is the most important.

I am obviously hoping I have a dynamic duo ( 1 - 2 punch ) with Luka and Zion. KP's main usage is as a rim protector and stretch 5 to open the floor for Zion.

I am biting at the bit for our ratings :lol:
