Judging the Roster
So it falls to you to check this roster as it stands now, and determine who if any might achieve the type of play to warrant starting on a championship roster. But to make it even more difficult, lets add some other options.
I will name the prospect, and place the three categories of a championship team. If you have forgotten what those categories are, let’s review:
Platinum player – upper 96th percentile of the NBA in his position
Gold player – upper 90th percentile of the NBA in his position
Silver player – upper 79th percentile of the NBA in his position.
Now keep in mind that you may be tempted to believe that the team has more than one potential platinum player on this roster. But if that is the case, it will be difficult to keep both players on the roster due to the salary cap limitation, unless the team is lucky.
We’ll discuss the players genetic stats, strengths, weaknesses, fit to team scheme, and then give you what it would take for that player to match up at each tier.
Then it will be onto the next player. Ready? Let’s get started:
