Yeah I know, I was just kidding. It's not a lottery in the NBA sense, but still all you know (in the best case scenario) is the player's age, skill and potential, and these last two can still vary a lot. So there is still some uncertainty about it, you'll agree

It doesn't affect anything because it doesn't exist. And of course that I'm joking :)

There was a discussion on that matter after last season draft, some players (including me :P) weren't too happy about drafting short PF's and C's or tall PG's. But from what I heard the draft structure is not going to be changed in the near future, so if your first pick is a C with 5 balls potential and 5 balls skill you better hope he's not 6'0 :P

I think this is not a problem, because you can make a good SF from such a player ;) he will have excellent inside skills(because hi's a c/pf), and you will train very easy his outside skills(because of hi's height)

Also, after going through many players the last two seasons, I can tell you that in general players have a height that goes with their position. So you will be hard pressed to find a C drafted who is 5'10".

Yeah I know there's a correlation between players' height and their default position. The argument at the time was because we were saying that if you had 2 players with the same information prior to the draft, knowing their height would simplify your choice (e.g. if you had two 5-ball C's, if one was 6'7 and the other was 7'3, easy choice!). That draft wasn't great for me, because I drafted two PF's that looked like good prospects, but they were 6'4 and 6'5

Well, I on the other hand, am a sucker for multiskilled players and prefer those kind of players since it saves me training them to much in stuff that does not fit their height. A short C or a tall PG have been high on my wishlist for a long time. I would buy such a player for a decent amount if he were sold shortly after the draft. even more decent amount if he is norwegian.
