Are you f***ing kidding me?!

This is what I got from a "B+" rated player @19yo:

Jump Shot: awful Jump Range: mediocre
Outside Def.: awful Handling: awful
Driving: atrocious Passing: atrocious
Inside Shot: inept Inside Def.: strong
Rebounding: average Shot Blocking: average
Stamina: average Free Throw: awful

Experience: atrocious TSP: 40 (16 + 24)

60 scouting points down the drain. Thanks a lot.

This is very weird, I know of a user who finished 4th place and got a Best Player of All time 19 year old lol
Without investing in Draf points!!!
Meanwhile a friend of mine went to the trouble of finishing in last to get the first draft picks, spent 60 points and had only a superstar player on a 5/5 18 year old

What is going on here

2nd user I see finishing 4th and getting a 18 year old Hall Of Fame player

Excuse me this one is 19y

Tbh B+ guys usually have under 50 TSP so not super surprising. Sucks to spend that many points for a garbage guy though so my condolences

Another one..

First place in the league

This user got a Hall of Fame player, 18 year old! ->https://buzzerbeater.com/player/49864744/overview.aspx

How does this draft thingy work? Even if I do not end in last place I can get better MVP's/HoF's than last places? lol

If that's the case I'm going to start using draft points in every season, can someone ELI5 me here

Sir... You were in a league where half of the Teams are Bots... 8/16... and we Know that bots teams pick by what they randomly assigned list... and you among other all Human owned Teams Drafted 2nd...

How's your Draft in Seasons 51 and 52... Sir? You are also on a high priority on those seasons.. Did you also used Scouting points on those Seasons and what Draftees did you get...

With that Observation... you can make your own conclusion... and Decide for yourself if you'd really get those 5 Star Ball Potential and 5 Ball Rating Prospects every Season... coz it still has a higher chance of being an MVP Potential than being a Hall of Famer.

If you'd you really are pumped to prioritize Drafts Picks... pay close attention on your Economy and go for 4 Points per Week Scouting Points Option... My experience with that is... 4 Scouting Points per Season collection for that Season's Draft is not enough to find me 4 good Prospects... and worse to secure my Top 3 Picks.

If that's the case I'm going to start using draft points in every season, can someone ELI5 me here :/ :/

Thank you for the reply mate, appreciate the effort you put into constructing it

I have always gotten atleast an MVP if I finish last in the league and invest into the draft, my main doubt here is:

- It's not needed to finish last in draft if you can invest some points into draft EVEN if you finish above 5th place?

As evidenced by the teams I've referred, last link the guy played in a full human league, finished 1st and got a 18y/o Hall Of Fame lol!

I have not used draft points this season, if you pay attention i have referenced a friend of mine who ended last in the league purposefully and invested in the draft getting only a superstar player 5/5, while many users who have finished 1st / 4th got MVP/HoF players

Will this make useless the strategy of going last in the league on purpose in order to get first picks if even 1st placed players can get HoF or MvP's regularly??
Is it worth it for a competitive team to invest into the draft even if they finish top of the league? Like getting MVP or HoF players with regularity?

These are my main doubts sir, thank you once again
