Hey guys,
I've started this thread to address just one thing. I personally am very much against GMs coming up here and quoting player stats and compare stats between players to determine how much increase a certain player should get.
ie.
Player A - 23.5 ppg 6.5 Reb 4.5 apg is rated as (85)
so
Player B - 23.0 ppg 5.0 reb 8.5 apg should get an increase from (79) to at least an (83)
Honestly, I think this is a BS way of presenting your case for a ratings increase. Circumstances are different for every team and stats should not dictate nor act as a dominant factor in deciding ratings
eg.
Kevin Garnett rated (88)
14.4 PPG 7.3 Rpg 2.7 Apg 0.8BPG .521FG%
Dwight Howard
18.3PPG 13.2 Rpg 1.8Apg 2.8 BPG .612FG%
So if the previous arguments hold and is based on how people fight for stats, shouldn't Howard be rated like (97) now?
I am aware that not everyone sees it like that, but there have been certain GMs who cook up a list of other players and use these numbers alone to prove how much more superior their players are and expect some rating increase(and this is still happening).
Lastly, I am extremely annoyed at GMs who start a thread and go:
Player XXXX has 26PPG 4.0 Reb 5.5 APG MUST be 85-87 at least.
Honestly that is BULL. Mike woodson (I'm not going to be discreet about it since he's not exactly been subtle either) has been doing it and he posts threads as though 25PPG demands an 85 rating etc etc
I hope everyone presents their case like someone with good/concrete knowledge of the game of basketball and how team dynamics work (with franchise players, role players or how stacked a team is) and not act like shallow and amateurish 5year-olds
