2023 CS Historic Draft Thread - Results in OP!

[RPGenerate]

So it doesn’t get lost:

Tracy McGrady

32-6.5-5.5 with 2.5 “stocks” on 46-38-80% efficiency, .564 TS%.

Led the league in fun/loony metrics like PER, OWS, WS/48, VORP, BPM, OBPM, didn’t see any eligible season with close to half that.

Looking at the # of players since 1960 with higher metrics in one season, TMac is 11th in VORP and BMP, 22nd in WS, 27th WS/48.

This is one of the top 25 scoring seasons up to 2010, with multiple seasons by the same player counting. Think top 15 all time scorer, but with a 30%+ assist rate.

Bleacher report, bible of bball info, lists is at the 5th best season to not win MVP, behind Wilt’s best season, MJs best season, DRob’s best season, and just ahead of Lebron and Chris Paul.

Look who’s on the article cover: https://syndication.bleacherreport.com/amp/2699535-nba-metrics-101-best-seasons-that-didnt-result-in-mvp.amp.html

Simply put, his peers don’t exist in this league. 2002-03 TMac is MJ.

IMO, of course.

Man, that peak season is still impressive every time I see it. Talent wise, I don't think the gap between him and T-Mac is very wide.

This may be presumptuous of me, but I think there's a clear top pick left that would easily be my choice at this point.

I have 2 guys.

don't take my guy, either one of you

Just tell me who he is on pm, and I 100% won't take him, pinky promise, hope to die.

Is Who on?

If any of you with supposedly one clear cut guy at this point want the #5 pick, the Toronto Belichicks are open to trading down a couple spots to move up in the mid rounds.

[Who]

McGrady and Hill were both top 3's for me. So far great picks. Might have to make an impulse decision at #5.

I was all over the place with Grant Hill. Everywhere from top 3 to end of first early 2nd. Still struggling with where to place him.

I have 3 guys. Actually 4 of my top 5 are still available.

I was kinda hoping a couple more of them would've been picked by now to make my decision easier!

You're committing to a certain team structure with him since he needs the ball in his hands to be successful and isn't the greatest shooter. Fit is more important with him IMO than with Vince or some of the other likely first rounders.

Was McGrady your guy that was picked?

The switch is going to make out like a bandit here IMO. He may be in position to be the early front runner at the moment, but I’ll try and catch up.

Yeah, McGrady was the guy. I had him #1. Best blend of scoring & all-round game.
