2002 Rookie Ladder (316 views)

preseason

.

1. Mitchell Robinson PF



Wow. Best blocks in class, plus efficiency, turns it over a little but not too bad. Needs to work on rebounds but that grows very well for bigs, and holding the clipboard for all time great 4.0 Knick that I traded for stuff that I'd trade for Sam Jones Kobe Maggette is the perfect situation for a young player. Congrats jhb.

.

2. Champ Godbolt PF



Another sim league, another great Champ on the Bucks. The margin between him and Rich Rob is small: behind on blocks, ahead on steals and rebounds, passes a little, slightly better scorer... could go either way for #1 by season's end.

.

3. Yommy Sangodeyi C



At only B Inside grade and with a free throw stroke that makes Ben Simmons look like DJ Augustin, Yommy probably isn't long for the world of above average efficiency scorers. Literally zero blocks in over 1000 MP is also a pretty major red flag, even for 5.0. He does have best in class rebounding, so there is something to work with here no matter how dramatically his other stats fall off.

.

4. Charles Barkley* PF



Hey, it's an actual player from the IRL GOAT draft class! Chuck isn't giving you any defense and is bizarrely mediocre at rebounding, and his handles are a little questionable, but he's giving you the buckets along with the like IRL horrific three point shooting. Presents an interesting choice for the GM, keep at PF to shore up the boards and blocks, or move to SF for the three ball? He's almost certainly got to play at SF irregardless, just a question of which TCs to leverage.

.

5. Blake Mann PF



Aside from the top four nobody really showed out, so really the rest of the ladder is 'this guy did one thing okay?'. Blake Mann is probably how Shakespeare would write black man. Shot blocks. Number five.

.

6. Roosevelt Chapman SG



In limited minutes with terrible outside scoring, he put up plus efficiency from the wing. That's why they call Roosevelt the Chapman's friend.

.

7. John Stockton PG



Terrible scorer. Just awful. Solid d numbers and a preposterous 10 assist to turnover ratio reminds me of a young Quincy McCall. Bottom line, sublime handles like that will earn a spot on this rookie ladder ANY day.

.

8. Sam Perkins PF



9. Graylin Warner C



Couple similar players here. Sub optimal efficiency but not too far from average, wimpy bleals, real solid boards and free throw %s, decent handles.

.

10. Stojko Vrankovic C



Stoj-Vrank put up nice efficiency but the rest of his game is radioactive. And not in the cool Hulk way, in the everyone who touches it dies way.

Being left off of the Rookie Ladder is basically a way to guarantee surefire stardom.

You have no idea how nervous I am that Brad Daugherty was ranked high last season.

Spoiler alert: Sam Perkins of "sub optimal efficiency but not too far from average" will take a giant leap after shooting over 50% from the field and 47.6% from 3.

[fason]

Pretty nice start for Hakeem but to make the top 10 he still has work to do in order to make up for his dreadful preseason.

day 30

.

1. Hakeem Olajuwon C - LR unranked



After some insomnia in preseason the Dream has begun! Improved across the board dramatically: shot blocking, rebounding, scoring, he's even passing better. He probably comes back to the pack a little given the middling preseason but he's got a good gap to work with.

.

2. Champ Godbolt PF - LR #2



Champ's scoring dipped a little, but he's still giving you the total package. He better make sure he's not carrying any doughnuts around in his jersey, as players tend to do, because hot on his heels:

.

3. Charles Barkley* PF - LR #4



The Chuckster! He is who we thought he was, slick scorer with not much else going for him. He jumps a rung due to movement around him.

.

4. Sam Perkins PF - LR #8



This player sure perked up, you know what I'm Saming? Real good across the board. A few more updates at this pace and his bear market in preseason will be forgotten.

.

5. Michael Jordan SG - LR unranked



Hard to figure how going from the powder blues of North Carolina to the powder blues of Denver could cause such a culture shock, but Jordan has finally found his way to the bucket. The rebounding is threatening Timo Cruz levels and the defense isn't living up to expectations, though.

.

6. Mitchell Robinson PF - LR #1



The dreaded 'lord of the preseason ladder' curse strikes Mitch, son of Robin, as he finds himself nailed to the bench. Sources say a lack of hustle and sticktoitivity have landed this promising young star in the coach's dog house. Or maybe JHB's just trying to hide him before FA. Good luck JHB I'm behind nine proxies min bids.

.

7. Devin Durrant SF - LR unranked



The greatest sound-alike since all time great third string PG Stephan Templeton, Devin gives you elite scoring efficiency, elite rebounding for a small forward, sublime handles for anybody, and while the bleals aren't good they aren't terrible.

.

8. Stojko Vrankovic C - LR #10



Go home and Stojk to being a family man! The sonic booms from his turnovers are probably the only thing holding Durrant back from top half ladder position, to be Vrank.

.

9. Andre Turner PG - LR unranked



Good scorer. Everything else?


.

10. Dazon Ingram SG - LR unranked



Great rebounder for a guard. Scoring could become a strength with some TC/Lab time.

day 60

.

1. Hakeem Olajuwon C - LR #1



Dream on, Dream on, Dream on, *falsetto intensifies* DREAM ON! DREAM ON! AYYYY-EE-AYYYYYY!!!

He's really good. That's what I was going for there.

.

2. Champ Godbolt PF - LR #2



Literally everybody else got worse. That's bad and they should feel bad. It's fitting that Champ remains, as Henry Wadsworth Longfellow once said, "number two that means poop lol". No but seriously. He'll get maxed and if his scoring creeps up just a teensy nudge he'll be maybe worth it.

.

3. Charles Barkley* PF - LR #3



Chuckster turned it over a little less and rebounded a little more. I guess they should call it Ball Fumble and Don't Rebound Watchers Bafuad'trew for short

.

4. Sam Perkins PF - LR #4



As expected Perk's scoring perked down, but it's still... comment ça va? Ne plus ultra. (As Henry Wadsworth Longfellow once said.)

.

5. Sam Bowie C - LR unranked



He turns it over too much, his bleals are poor and he has C Defense grade, and his efficiency is a little subpar. But it's only a little subpar, and you can't teach seven foot one inch height, and there's no place in the software for 'repeat leg breaks'. I told you everybody got worse, didn't I? DIDN'T I? Now behold the awful price of treason.

.

6. Andre Turner PG - LR #9



Andre 2000 got worse at scoring AND rebounding and jumps three rungs. But hwhy? His turnovers dropped to a pretty solid level for a point guard, and his bleals turned up a bit too. This is the only 1984 draft class reference that won't crucify the Trailblazers for being one spot ahead of

.

7. Michael Jordan SG - LR #5



Being relentlessly faux-shopped has clearly hurt 'Air' Jordan's confidence, or maybe it's all the schizogenic reefer smoke polluting the atmosphere. Suffice it to say that dropping half a steal per thirty-and-six minutes is not a good look no matter how much of an hallucination one is suffering, an American dish of corn and lima beans cooked together.

.

8. Dazon Ingram SG - LR #10



The rest of the ladder isn't stunned, but a three round daze isn't out of the question (obviously they rolled for Confusion Immunity in slot 5 rip Nexon). This ingrate dipped like everyone else, but he's still close enough to average scoring that he should be able to get there... or at least close enough to send a 'gram. Tele, not insta, you mongrel youts.

.

9. Devin Durrant SF - LR #7



Art imitates life. Young Devin looked like young Kevin. When the chips were down they both wilted at supersonic speeds. We should hope he turns it around for the sake of all salt shakers.

.

10. Mitchell Robinson PF - LR #6



The Monroe Square Garden Company presents The Rookie Ladder presented by Snapple - Snapple, it's what's for dinner! has it on good authority that G league phenom Rich Mitch, Son of Son of Gray is being bandied relentlessly in private, and banding hasn't been tournament legal since 4.0 (Magic, not Majic) so it's no surprise to see him strugglíng. We're still confident that he can rebound to the preseason hype, especially with his huge triple axel double shot block per 36.

day 90ish

.

1. Hakeem Olajuwon C - LR #1



Fell off a little since last update: less boards, efficiency, steals, more turnovers. Still an easy number one.

.

2. Mitchell Robinson PF - LR #10



The Mitch is back! What a coincidence that the Hawks start coming when they start playing Graysonson. His defense actually dipped from great to merely superb, but the efficiency is there, the handles are there. Chalk up another win for the preseason ladder.

.

3. Sam Perkins PF - LR #4



Pretty much a carbon copy of #2 except with 2 less shot blocks per 2 times 2 times 9 minutes. 2 far off 2 be in the same ca2gory as #2, but 2uld be a real surprise 2 see him drop 2 the lower 1/2th of the ladder by day one2enty.

.

4. Champ Godbolt PF - LR #2



He was probably too high last ladder with those turnovers. Bumping them even higher was a poor choice.

.

5. Devin Durrant SF - LR #9



Durrant doesn't have the name recognition of lots of other guys, and he doesn't do anything flashy, and his efficiency is poor. But you show me an SG eligible player with 9 boards, 1.5 steals, and well under 1 turnover per 36 minutes, and I'll show you a rich man's Pete HOFzman, who as you may have heard is an NBA sim league champion.

.

6. Sam Bowie C - LR #5



Lot of weaknesses, still subpar scoring, still close enough and the weaknesses aren't pronounced enough to knock him off.

.

7. Charles Barkley* PF - LR #3



The Chuckster started great(ish) but is struggling in the home stretch. Needs to improve conditioning if he wants to play an 82 game season in the National Basketball Association simulated by Fast Break Basketball version Two Thousand and One.

.

8. Stojko Vrankovic C - LR unranked



The 'vic is back too! It's a weak class, what can I tell you. His handles and defense are so bad I don't think he can ever start for a contender, but his scoring is a plus.

.

9. Yommy Sangodeyi C - LR unranked



Really scraping the bottom of the barrel now. Yommy has played 2132 regular season minutes and amassed 3 blocks. Not per game. Three total blocked shots. If his free throw shooting was a batting average it'd still be behind the great Nap Lajoie's best season. Seriously folks, the Pistons are required by the league to provide a new stanchion every time he takes a jump shot. Sangreal!
But at least he doesn't turn it over, and he's a good rebounder.

.

10. Dazon Ingram SG - LR #8



Woof. Ingram's scoring has regressed sharply back to preseason levels, surprise surprise, still isn't wowing with the handle or the defense. 8 boards per 36 as a wing gets you something...

...a min bid from the Knicks!!

day 120

.

1. Hakeem Olajuwon C - LR #1



So dreamy elite efficiency, elite defender, putting up elite volume on a real team. Rebounds are a little low, TC should sew that up in three years max. Handling is the only slight weakness, and even that is far from a deal breaker.

.

2. Mitchell Robinson PF - LR #2



Would easily be #1 in a lot of years, but hey, they don't call this the second greatest irl draft class after 2003 for nothing. Putting up even better bleals but the efficiency is merely good, the rebounds are in the same spot so should end up about the same too. Things are getting Hot in 'Lanta.

.

3. Sam Perkins PF - LR #3



About time someone had someone named Perkins on someone's roster. Isn't defending the same way but as someone with a three shot already that Gallatin +50 is on the table.


.

4. Champ Godbolt PF - LR #4



Champ's okay at everything. Expected growth should make him good at everything but turnovers. Pretty good. Good effort.

.

5. Devin Durrant SF - LR #5



Really excited for KD DD going forward. It's gotta be 25 to Jump Shot, and then hope his Three Shot grows in TC. Those rebounds and turnovers are truly sublime.

.

6. Charles Barkley* PF - LR #7



Barkley plays no d, coughs up the ball, doesn't score enough. But he's got enough efficiency to grow into an elite scorer. Good luck Chuck.

.

7. Sam Bowie C - LR #6



The ball bounces another way a couple times and Bowie could swap with Perk. But it bounced that way instead, so he's down here with the schlubs. Time to see who the true GM King of Chicago is between Ank and Tim.

.

8. Graylin Warner C - LR unranked



Really high floor with the micro turnovers and decent efficiency/bleals. The rebounds are a concern, although they were much better in preseason. At least he'll have one season of holding the clipboard for Mikan under his belt. That's right. One, total.

.

9. Stojko Vrankovic C - LR #8



No blocks, 3 tov per 36, middling ballbounds, he'll never be a great player. But as a plus scorer he could be IRL Greg Monroe indefinitely.

.

10. Jeffrey Fuller SG - LR unranked



Okay scorer. Okay bleals. Great turnovers. Rebounds need work.

And he's better than Jordan.

.

rest of lotto:

Michael Jordan - iffy scorer, rebounder, and defender. But at least he turns it over like IRL MJ
John Stockton - beautiful ast:tov, putting up some decent steals. But the scoring makes stocks' ton look like harris' on
Melvin Turpin - bad bleals, horrible turnovers, putrescent scoring. But at least his rebounds are okay. Talk about your Terrible Turpins
Alvin Robertson - terrible at everything
Oscar Schmidt - some guys play the piano. some guys have the piano fall on them. pray for taco
Roosevelt Chapman - love those turnovers. otherwise he's a DISGRACE to the great King of Chapped Men, 4.0 last man on earth Rex Chapman
Dick Mumma - a massively insolvent man's Devin Durrant

It seems like players are averaging less rebounds in 5.0 so far.

yes but we're also going at a higher FG%, and with more big men touches we're also getting more free throws instead of field goals.
