Rookies

[Ruff Ryder]

Well, I've watched a fair bit of college basketball and high-school so here are just some things I should point out. These involve dunking, since sometimes it is hard to decide what the rating should be:

Andre Iguodala-Dunk-88
Ben Gordan-78
Emeka Okafor-75(should have about the same package as most big men)
J. R. Smith-90
Luol Ding-72
Jameer Nelson-15
Shaun Livingston-55-65 in dunking(he's a good passer, but isn't very strong)
Hakim Warrick(If he gets drafted)-78
Devin Harris-50

Anybody have suggestions for ratings?

Devin Harris: 48-55 (can throw it down sometimes)

Luke Jackson: 56-63 (got hops for a white boy)


Donta Smith (Hawks' second round pick): 75-80---amazing athlete; still kind of raw offensivley....think Gerald Wallace with some range


Ummmm....that's it for now!

Warrick returned to school...but those are good. At first I was like "What the heck?" because I jumped to the numbers and thought they were overall .

Luke Jackson: 56-63 (got hops for a white boy)

I think he should be up in the 70s for dunking, 80s for jumping...he had a higher vertical than anyone at Chicago.

dorell wright - 93 in dunk

Andrew, you have to up his rating here, but maybe lower some other areas (like d rating). I remember I put it up this high but then his rating was around 68 so I went on a rating-lowering spree and lowered the wrong categories (jumping, dunking).

Noted.

Devin Harris threw it down a lot more & with more style & elevation than a 50 or 55 denotes, especially for a guy that's 6'3" (unless I'm wrong about what the dunk ratings equate to).
