I had the worst draft, 2 players with role player potential, which i fired immediately, and an 18 power forward guy with pitiful Inside defense and rebound.


And to think that I spent every week 40k. If I saved those money, I would buy a very great new player now, but oh well

That's the cons of the draft...if you spent a lot of money and still didn't get good picks, then you've basically been spending money for nothing. But ofc that all becomes part of your experience, that's what I think, and that's what makes the game so interesting. If everything went perfectly, it wouldn't be fun at all.

well i got 2 x bench warmers and a role player so it sucks to be me

only spent 10k for most of the season but did go 20k for the last few weeks

so i think there were a lot of duds this season, but i was picking last and next time i will do my scouting very differently, wont waste a single point on 19 yos or anyone tall, just check out the potential of everyone 18 and short

then after all that i picked up this guy for just 200k

Siebe van den Oosterkamp (16760036) Small Forward
Weekly salary: $ 5 612
DMI: 13300
Age: 18
Height: 6'5" / 196 cm
Potential: allstar
Game Shape: respectable

couldnt dream of drafting anyone that good myself, he is probably almost as good as the best player taken in our entire draft:

Steve Huzzard (16764408)
Shooting Guard
Owner: The Pwnage
Weekly salary: $ 5 130
DMI: 18000
Age: 18
Height: 6'9" / 206 cm
Potential: perennial allstar
Game Shape: respectable

i was just crying about my draft again and decided to have a look at the entire draft

it looks like our whole league got ripped, what a pile of rubbish

1 3k starter
2 2k 6th man
3 Inshot - best guy in the draft? 5k 18 PAS but a 6'9 SG
4 3k star
5 Semi-pro 4.6k 18 star another 6'9 SG
6 Possum 3k 19yo bench - what were you thinking?
7 Jindera but bought by Richmond - 5k 18 star, ok but not amazing
8 DragonZ 2k 19 Rp - smoking the same pipe as PP
9 3k 18 star
10 Akuma 4k superstar but 19 and RETIRED so skills must have sucked
11 Svettes 1.7k 19 BW - also on PPs pipe
12 Redbacks 4.5k 18 pas but a 6'6 PF- 2nd best guy in the draft?
13 Mages 3k 18 star
14 Tigers 5k 19 star, but 7'5" is nice
15 Home Axis 3k starter
16 Goldfish 3k BW - they invited me over for a puff too
17 2.5k 18yo ss

what a pile

potential ATG = 0
HOF = 0
MVP = 0
SS = 2 a 19 yo sacked and an 18 yo 2.5 k salary
PAS = 2 both good but bad heights
AS = 0 in the first round and 0 decent at all, dont count 2k 19 yos
one great player if his skills are good

so total potential > star + not total garbage in the entire draft = 2

did anyone else have it this bad in their league?
