I don't know it's not possible to split potential skills in six.
We need some data from the last season.
Somebody remenbers?

It is not an exact sience, but there are 12 ratings divided over 5 stars. So it probably breaks down something like this:

Stars
1 announcer
1 bench warmer
1 or 2 role player
2 6th man
2 starter
3 star
3 allstar
3 or 4 perennial allstar
4 superstar
4 MVP
5 hall of famer
5 all-time great

Please don't hold it against me if something elso comes out of the draft, but this seems the most logical answer :)

Having in mind that only 20% of the players are generated as all-stars or better, I am not entirely sold on this chart, especially without any empirical evidence.

Having in mind that only a couple of players in my draft have 4 or 5 star potential, I could be spot on!! Do you have anything better?

So why make it even more difficult then it is for the moment? 4 and 5 star potential is way better then 1, 2 or 3, but saying that only 5 star potential (= top 20% of potential rating) is all star or better doesn't make sense at all. Fact is that you can't ever be sure, because you don't know for sure what the specs of your draftees were after you drafted them.

So there is a logical (even) distribution in the potential/star rating, but not in the spreading of the number of stars?
