Re: Build a Franchise (Season 5)- Discussion thread
I bought and downloaded the initial first access version of the sim today. Taking an initial look at player ratings and, like every other year, found a few headscratchers. I'm sure that there will be a few unhappy GM's when the star ratings get released. Only thing I will mention is that the developer did say that the initial ratings may move a little more this year than usual.
Saying that, I will release the 3/3.5 players tomorrow and the 4/4.5/5 players on Sunday.
There are currently:
5 stars- (8 players)
4.5 stars- (11 players)
4 stars- (10 players)
3.5 stars- (29 players)
3 stars- (48 players)
EDIT- Should be 8---5 star players

Joel Embiid 4.5 stars
CJ McCollum 3.5 stars
Fred VanVleet 3.5 stars
Tobias Harris 3.5 stars

Top four are in elite company with the amount of wins, that's a win–loss record percentage of:
GSW: 68%
Chicago: 67%
Dallas: 66%
Portland: 66%
In real life Spurs have the highest win–loss record percentage with 61%.
