The player I picked up was the only 5 ball in our draft, the next best was Superstar, not even an MVP in ours. Sad. Lucky me!

my second player

And then this turd!

how do you do it?

another off the chart draft pick

while poor zyler spent 40k had first pick and got a star with pitiful def

and i got my 10th 11th and 12th bad pick in a row

drafts are never kind to me :(

all of the good players in this draft must have been hiding behind 3 grey balls grrrrrrrr for me as they are he only ones who did not get scouted :(

Well my strategy is quite simple. When I draft, I don't use both 10 point options. I use the one which shows the age and height of the players, then I simply scout-interview the ones I want for the type I will be training. So if I'm after a guard, I won't scout-interview players who are over a certain height even if they're 18. Saves me a lot of money and ensures my points are invested where I want them to be.

But it's nobodies fault if the draft just all round sucks, which it did for II.1.

Well i am just happy as my plan is to train my PG's up over the next 2-3 seasons and my two aussie ones i have shall do my perfectly

iwen, same strategy as me

0 interest in 19 year olds or tall players

but i only spend 20k a week

maybe that is why i get crap each season

I only spent 20k a week too, I just got lucky, he was the only good player in the draft. I checked all the other teams, so much crap..

I got two reasonably skilled 18 year olds with starter potential and a reasonably skilled superstar who is 19.
