Not sure if Ian is sending smokescreens, or if Charles is. Or maybe both?  |

Noah Vonleh may very well be the least risky pick out of the top 5.

I have one question guys. I'm not sure if you have this info somewhere, but I would like to know...
Where are you taking the first ratings for these rookies in the draft Ian?
Also, should we start a stock watch for these players somewhere or will their first ratings be set until next season sometime?
Its just something I was thinking. I know you use roster patches. But if you have these ratings.. Can we vote on their ratings before the season?
Thanks Ian ...as ALWAYS!!

We wont start the 2014/15 season until at least November - we have another D5* season to transition to after this off season - so we wont need ratings until then.
If a NBA-Live.com update is released we'll use them, if not we can use NBA 2k ratings and then deliberate on things ourselves once the season actually starts.

Can we make it a point to lower some of the guys who will undoubtedly be stupidly overrated. I wouldn't be surprised to so 2K give Wiggins an 85.

But if you have these ratings.. Can we vote on their ratings before the season? Thanks Ian ...as ALWAYS!! I have some secret sites out there that I am using. I also have a very advanced algorithm I am using. I use VBD when drafting Fantasy Football and Baseball guys, I've implemented that into my rookie rating as well as weighing alpha and beta on each prospect. Yes I have 2 top 5 picks, but I am rating around 100 guys or so. I plan to do a lot of movement over the time period of the draft, or at least try to. There are about 15 guys I really like, it will decrease depending on who they are drafted by, i.e. the Porter situation with Ariza being there from last year. But all in all, I have put in about 10 hours of excel time and film time so far. |

Not sure if Ian is sending smokescreens, or if Charles is. Or maybe both? Nah, by all accounts, I think that when LeBron declines, Durant takes the throne, and I think the next in line is Wiggins. I am willing to move both my top 5 picks up to get him. I'm just praying that I don't have to. I also have Oladipo and Giannis as trade bait. Like I said on the podcast, I really don't care if other GMs know who I like, that way if a guy is there a like for another GM, they can hit me up and work out a trade. |

What about the brow?

What about the brow? Anthony Davis? I was talking wing players. Davis is already pretty much king of the post game. The Pelicans will be a force to be dealt with if everyone develops, however they could end up like the T'Wolves with one really great player than can't lead his team to the playoffs. |
