in our conference wasn't better player than superstar and only 4 of them (if I counted well)

Excuse me Huzzel....next time I will give 40000$ to my Scouts......sure.......trust me!

Eheh
if this is the system, only an idiot can pay 10k per week... ;-)

I really would like to see at least an appropriate relation between height and position of players, i don´t get this, check out my draftees.. games are supposed to be fun not a joke. Hope next season we have less of this.

player position is calculated my player skills only... height isnt a factor.

U have a player with all pitfuls and R and SB mediocre and ID respectable, so he has the skills to be a C

I do think it might be nice to include height in computation of players, at least in the draft. Honestly, many draftees are being selected for training purposes...so what's the point of drafting a 6"2" PF or center or a 7'1" point guard.

Just my opinion...

That´s exaclty why i am suggesting to take the height as a factor!!

Even if it is only for the draft like Bruins coach, Mr. Steve Solana ,suggested.

It might be good to make height visible in general terms (short/medium/tall). I don't think it belongs in ratings calculation though.

...and it would be more realistic...

We don't know if the first is A+ and the second A- (Vitto's player tell us that this is not sure) but ....let's say the first is A+ and the second A- ...is this difference normal in your opinion or there' something wrong?

I don't think the difference is normal. For the record, I do agree that the draft is a bit top-heavy as far as the ratings are concerned. I was merely pointing out that it is counterproductive to calculate the height in the star rating formula, in my opinion. It should be provide as some sort of a range in the second scouting report instead.

Range would be fine with me, as long as it is a small enough range to understand at least if a guy is trainable.
For example, instead of having the stats from a single game (often times useless like my atrocious free throw shooter who shot 2-2 in that one game), I would MUCH rather know how old he is and if he is taller than 6'8 or shorter than 6'4 for example.

If you have a 7'1" PG, train him in C skills. He will train very quickly because of his age and height. Then you will have a C who can handle the ball and pass and still do the inside work. He will be a better all-around player. Same with the 6'4 C. Train him in SF skills- he already has the inside skills.

Granted, my team is in a league with only a few owners. But, my four best players can play any position and play it well. I have played two seasons now and my combined record is 39-5 and a two-time Champion. So, maybe having a huge guy with PG skills isn't a bad thing, if you develop his bigman skills.
