Interesting...
thanks

Another question:
If scouts of different teams scout the same player, do both see the same game? If the answer is yes it's bad because users will be able to share their information or decide which user takes which player...

I guess they must have thought about that, so you probably see different games.

Why is everybody talking about stars? Isn't the "Grade Rating" the most important information??
The way I see it, the grade rating is(by far) no. 1, the potential is no. 2 and the Star Rating is no. 3.
Does anyone agree, or am I far out???

star rating is better for positions you don't plan on training...but if you train a certain position you want them to have a high potential otherwise you're just wasting your time.

OK, but it's still relative, right?
I mean, A player who has a A- rating, but only a 2 star potential, should be better than a player with a C rating and 5-star potential. Unless you train the latter for 2-4 years...

I've got a 5* with 5 potential on my list. He'll be my top target but since I'm drafting 15th, I probably won't get him and he's a centre. However, I am guaranteed a 5* player because I can see 15 of them, which is a very nice surprise.

This new draft system is excellent. I like having a box score for each scouted player and a position played, and I have lots of decisions to make (eg. do I take a SF and hope I can train him at SG?).

when i look at the players i scouted twice (7 players), the grade rating is exactly the same as the star rating. 5 stars = A, 4 stars = B, 3 stars = C, 2 stars = D. the grad rating only differs with the plusminus given to the letter. so, in my case, the grades do not give new ratings, but they confirm all the star ratings.

You're right!
I hadn't noticed that. Well that brings me down a bit. I thought I had a lot of extra info, but it turns out that the Grade Rating doesn't give me much extra. Especially because the ones with A- or B- sometimes have better potential than the others, which makes the tos somewhat of a Toss-up.

therefore you should look at what you need for next season. if you train C/PF and your PG/SG/SF positions suck then draft a A+ player with a 5-star rating in those positions. if you want to train players and buy a player with skills you can see in the transfer market then start to weigh what is too low for a star rating/grade rating. i'll be working with the second option since training players brings in more money on the transfer market.
