So, we are going to open the voting up for the players to be added. Now, these guys won't be added until the OSFA period begins, but we want to open the voting up now, so that we can create the players before then.
Nikola Mirotic is a PF/SF, kind of in the Dirk Nowitzki mold and dominated the Euro League when he was 19 years old. And when I say dominated, I mean dominated.
MP FGM-A FG% 3PM-A 3P% 2PM-A 2P% FTM-A FT% ORB DRB TRB AST STL BLK TOV PF PTS

Those are his normal stats, I'll update them as the season goes on, for the voting will be open for a while.

My suggested rating is a 78. Let the voting begin!

So, please give us not only your recommended OVR rating, but chime in on any strengths and weaknesses the player may have.
Thanks guys!

78 seems good with emphasis on shooting, scoring in general and rebounding.

I'm thinking 77. I should say though, as often as he's compared to Dirk, his halfcourt game feels closer to Love's in the way that he doesn't take to the post as much as a Dirk comparison would suggest. Also surprisingly quick on the break and getting to the rim.

78. Mirotic: "I want to play. Let me free."

77 - Offensive stats should be the focus here. His defense is not that good.

We need more votes!!
In the RC, we are currently creating all the players that need to be added, and we WANT your input!!
Mirotic is probably the biggest name of them all so come out and vote and tell us why.

Did this guy start more games than whiteside or something? Why is his votes over a 75?

While Whiteside was spending years in the DLeague and failing out of the NBA, and being a horrible basketball player as far as anyone could see, Mirotic was overseas being arguably the best player who wasn't in the NBA, or at least the best younger player who wasn't in the NBA. Get it now?

Get it now? Pretty sure whiteside hasn't been failing since like 2013 and was performing well in the Chinese and euro leagues he was in, leading to his NBA contract.

Pretty sure whiteside hasn't been failing since like 2013 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hassan_WhitesideIn November 2013, Whiteside signed with Al Mouttahed Tripoli of the Lebanese Basketball League. He was released in April 2014.

He was released in April 2014.And we he won MVP awards and championships in China. But whatever man, I guess euro league stats now matter more than NBA production in this anti whiteside world.

Whiteside will eventually get a better rating. You just need to be patient. Next season, you will be able to tank with your own pick.

Get it now? Pretty sure whiteside hasn't been failing since like 2013 and was performing well in the Chinese and euro leagues he was in, leading to his NBA contract. It's all about perception. No one follows the Chinese leagues and I hadn't heard he was doing well in Euro. I knew he was horrible and failed out of the NBA, then years later the first I heard of him was he was in the DLeague I believe. Mirotic on the other hand made a great name for himself in Europe, and came over and looked the part. Said another way, Mirotic has a longer track record of success and does not have a HUGE black mark on his record.

Got to be honest he really surprised me, I had no idea he was going to end up being that good. He is a lot tougher than some of the Europeans that come over. I'm going to say he's 77 OVR. He can shoot however it's REALLY streaky. His percentages weren't very impressive to be honest especially for someone taking almost 4 threes a game. This is partly caused by the unbalanced Bulls roster which is just dying for some sort of spacing.
I think his strength should come from his surprisingly good defense for a PF averaging 1.2 stls and 1.2 blks per 36mins. That and a positive assist to turnover rate speak volumes for a player of his size in terms of game sense. I'll be paying attention to which coach the Bulls sign as a sign of how good his offense can get to.

Have about 13 for Mirotic. We need more. Or don't complain when these guys are under/over rated.
PLEASE VOTE. GET THEM IN!!!
GIVE US YOUR OPINIONS ON STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES.
ALSO, VOTE ON THE OTHER PLAYERS that NEED CREATED
THESE GUYS THAT NEED CREATED ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE ROOKIES RIGHT NOW
THE 2014 ROOKIES WILL BE FIXED AND ADJUSTED, WE NEED VOTES ON THE PLAYERS TO ADD
