It sounds like you got the right guy as #1, as I found only two 5/4 18 year olds and the one with 56 TSP was the guard. Although your post also makes it clear that each team gets different box scores for the guys, as the points scored don't match at all. I suppose it is possible one of the guys with 47-49 TSP who I didn't look at could be a 5/4, but with multiple atrocious skills, I really doubt it. The two 19 year olds with 61 TSP both ended up with only 2 potential, so not really good draft picks.

Your second pick is most likely the Player 10 I posted earlier. He's the only other 5/4 18 year old I found. I put him fourth on my list behind your likely #1, my Player 29 and a 19 year old who has 54 TSP and no skill below inept. Although he also has no skill at strong, which is why I scouted him in the first place. It was somewhat of a tossup for 3 & 4, and I decided to go with the guy who would be ready sooner. Of course, I'm hoping that if I get either of those two it is actually in round 2.

I still have 96 scouting points. I invest 10k per week every season, whether or not I will be drafting. That's 28 points a season, and I don't plan to use them if I'm not drafting in the top four. I broke that rule a little bit two or three seasons ago to test something out, but only spent 40 that season. So the last time I really drafted was in season 29. And I'm not sure when it was before that, as I spent a long time in Div III being competitive but not able to win as well. Realistically, with my approach you could probably draft every 3rd or 4th season, since you'd have 84 or 112 scouting points to use.


And rather than double post, congrats to Hassan. Hell of a final game. Actually went and watched the replay of the fourth quarter. Had to be nerve wracking for both teams.

i just found out the result -- got caught up watching the incomprehensible shenanigans of Westworld -- actually, i was too nervous to watch the game and seeing robots shoot people helped relieve the tension.

You got yourself one helluva team, and with HCA i would be congratulating you. thanks for a memorable series.

That was very forward-thinking of you to invest 10K a week for scouting points. That's fantastic. It's been a pleasure competing aginst you and your intellectual appraoch to the game.

I enjoy competing against and brainstorming with NBBA managers. There is a reason you all are here.

Best of luck to all in future seasons

Never the less, It was a fantastic run, Procta. You've always been a tough out.

One of my players looks a lot like you.



I thought you should know.

The resemblance is uncanny.

5 years ago, I drafted a HOF potential player....solid player, but his holes were in ratings that mattered most to me....so even though he was a solid draft pick, he was a bad fit, and I sold him. He's the only draft pick worth talking about in my teams history...and a large part of why I hate the draft in BB.

My Utopian team drafted finally landed a great prospect for me :-)

Hi Danny Rogers. I'm sorry I couldn't buy you a few seasons back, but I'm glad it worked out for you. You seem happy.

Congrats Hassan on a great season adding another Gold to your already amazing legacy! Good luck next season!!

Thanks a lot, Jason. One thing about this week is there really no time to enjoy the achievement: as i write this, we have our draftees, new teams have been assigned, and we have a schedule.. i will say i can toss out all my accumulated superstitions (i might shower in a different stall in the gym, and maybe change my socks) and relax and actually, you know, enjoy the game -- maybe even watch a couple of matches!

let's bring on Season 37!

congrats!
