5 years from now Rookie Edition (464 views)

[Mad King]

 

*just imagine some of these guys with +24 or more with Bonus Points..This is straight software out of 2.0 Poetic File no BS. Ribbed 4 your Pleasure

This article is just a mock draft TC where i built these players as Rookies before TC and simed out their Career to show us what changes and what doesnt. It gives some of the guys that have never seen the software to see what happens. I did not do this to mock these players IRL careers exactly. Ian thanks he's God so please avoid his responses as best as you can. These ARE NOT 2.0 grades becasue i did not build these guys as Commish. Like i stated earlier this is just something i thought GMs would enjoy looking at to see what B- inside looks like or B inside looks like per software. If you have a question on anything or you want to know if a +5 here would change or something i will do that for you. For those that don't like the article i appolgize and hope to do a better idea next time. Thank you for your time.

Good. 

[Buster 5000]

Fucking RW

[Citizen Cane]

shot blocking for biedrins is too low

[IanBoyd]

RW has personally been through 3 commishes before dirt took over in 2.0 and somehow confused the fact that dirt did not make the rookies in the sim year 2004.

[Trofie]

Iggy Jump to low

[Trofie]

Would take Gordon or Harris with those grades. gbr

[Mad King]

this article isnt supposed to be exactly what these guys did irl..its more about giving you an oppurtuniy to see what cats change and so forth. i'm not even halfway done with this article....

[Mad King]

even though i've been working on it for nearly 50ish min.. :facepalm:

[Trofie]

keep your head up

[IanBoyd]

oh so basically you're making the rookie class then running a TC with them?

cool idea.

not sure if this is joking or not lol

[Deleted]

Devin Harris went +3 in TC as a Celtic

:like:

[Deleted]

I would have taken Gordon before Harris FYI

also how did Biedrins last until 2.7?

[Trofie]

Didn't know players could dive bomb on pot like that.

[2poor]

This could be a very informative article

[20s Navidad]

I have no idea what's going on.

[IanBoyd]

neither do I so here's a picture of the actual Shaun Livingston after his rookie TC:



and Dwight:

[Trofie]

Good stuff dirt

[[Account Deleted]]

That's from 2.0?

[IanBoyd]

Ben Gordon is good, Iggy got hat Corey Maggette syndrome, rest of class = lolbust

no its not from the actual 2.0 from the year 2004, dirt made a rookie class and put them in his file, hence the year 2033 etc for their awards.

[Mad King]

the stats in player card are from previous year fwiw..and i dont think Deng would be a bust with points in him or Harris

[ANK1990]

They all suck?

[Mad King]

bieds and okafor are what they are...i mean i dont think it would have been a horrible class...we normally put +9 into rookies even a couple articles before they get this old
