lol I kinda gave a spoiler the other day when I posted in the thread that we'd be holding a workout for him. It took a few days, but I'm glad I pounced cause I would've been tight had you signed him. Defensive smarts and passing ability made him a great match for us. He'll get the minutes cause of that alone.

I already had the defensive oriented lineup with him ready smh. I gotta literally redo all my lineups now he was key to my season.

Great signing, proving again who's the best GM in this game.

Agreed. He and Hauser can light it up. They were def on my short list, but a one year deal for either wouldn't have impacted this season of BaF. They're more so investments for next season and beyond. Same for Nick Richards which was another great signing by Toronto.

I can still win 65 without him but I gotta figure out how defenses work this year and Iguodala was likely to have a high DEF rating. I need at least 3 80+ defenders to figure out how it works I was hoping Lonzo/Iggy/Allen would be the 3.

Hey at this point my only tip off with defense ratings is:

Do you have a good reputation defensively?
Are you on a good defense?

That's basically it lmao. Iggy checks the boxes lol.

Imma figure it out tho. Maybe it's NBA player tracking...

Based off the fact you got him I assume he will honestly. Same as dudes MPH got. I automatically assume they'll be 70+.

We’ll all know soon enough who's rated what. Steph was a shocker for me, but it’s really guys like Jaylen Brown and others who may have received an underserved rating that I’m afraid will have the most impact on a teams overall success. The way they’re doing things I won’t be surprised if we see more 1.5-2.0 ratings this year.

If it’s Kawhi they dropped to 3.5 as rumored that’s a big enough drop to negatively impact HS85. That one will hurt for sure, but she’s a good GM and will figure it out.

Brown not being a 4 is bad. But if SGA jumped to the 5. cap kinda evened out with Gobert still a 4.5 with his probably 100 DEF

It really comes down to individual ratings though. Kawhi might have only dropped because they sank his endurance or whatever rating so she may need to be careful on b2b or something. But if he gets high efficient scoring and good defense the drop shouldn't be a killer for her. And Isaac defense stayed elite.

Is there a new 4 list with Brown on it?

He was jacked for sure. But those overall ratings sometimes don't mean much. I've had 3.5 and 3 star players go ham in the right role. Remember Elfrid "Gary" Payton? Gobert was 3.5 last year and dpoy. PG13 only 4.

Plus, every year I have to trade a player who gets a 5 star rating for a 3.5 star player. Vuc for Gobert. Now LeBron for Brown.
