Re: Build a Franchise (Season 5)- Discussion thread
Can't lie, was not expecting Dinwiddie not being a three star player. In the past players coming off a injured season never really had that held against them, oh well. Hopefully his start of the season gives him that small bump.

Re: Build a Franchise (Season 5)- Discussion thread
Based on 2k ratings rest should be like this:
5 stars- (8 players)
KD
Curry
LeBron
Giannis
Jokic
Kawhi
Embiid
Butler (I think Butler will not be 5 for one of the players listed below, money on Luka or AD)
4.5 stars- (11 players)
Doncic
AD
Træ
Harden
Kyrie
Morant
Dame
Zion
CP3
PG13
Beal
4 stars- (10 players)
DeRozan
Tatum
LaVine
KAT
Adebayo
Randle
Sabonis
Valanciunas
Westbrook (5 star reign ending???)
Fox
Vucevic might take someone out of there too, dont think he will be 2.5
Anyone else missing?

I want to throw hands. DPOY, 3rd team all nba, 3rd IN THE ENTIRE LEAGUE in RPM, 15th in PER...
I've heard wind that this Sim is stats based. What **** stats were they looking at for Gobert???
Scoring/3Pt/FT maybe weighing it down? Has to be elite in the other categories
Yeah he has to be like 100 rating on defense and close to 100 on rebounding too. And high on steals and blocks. Just think there should be some difference on a player like Drummond who puts up similar raw stats but clearly doesn't have the same impact.

The only ratings that matter when all is said and done!
These categorical ratings show a far more accurate reflection of Gobert’s skill set, so no need getting too down and out about overall ratings.
Well done Cap!

yup, the individual ratings matter the most in terms of what you want them to do and how they fit into your teams overall vision.

that's why there's usually a delay with their roster. they like to see if there are any breakouts, or duds.

Spida/Booker/Jaylen Brown were all guys that should have 4 star IMO. Hopefully they get bumps.
