NBA MOCK DRAFT 4.0 (UPDATED: MORE NAMES ADDED)

Yep. Another update. Hopefully it's the last one (likely is in terms of algorithm changes). I feel very comfortable that I've addressed many of the key issues with NBA-translatable skills.

NBA MOCK DRAFT 3.0, AND AN EARLY LOOK AT THE 2015 DRAFT

But I got some twitter advice from well-informed stat geeks, and I've decided to add a potential rating to my previous algorithm--while my previous algorithm already emphasized this to some degree, this magnifies categories such as 2-point percentage, steals, blocks, rebounds, assist rate and age.

Here's my latest update. Use this link as a primer.

USING STANDARDIZED REAL PLUS MINUS (RPM) TO ANALYZE TWO-WAY AND ONE-WAY PLAYERS

So we've used Stephen Ilardi's published RPM stats on ESPN, adjusted by position (to create a more even distribution among ranks) to get a consolidate ranking of top offensive and defensive players. These players may not have the stats, but when they step on the court, they spatially warp the floor in ways that prove beneficial to their team. The top players are in the top 100 for offense, defense, or both categories (in the case of two way). It is out of 430 total NBA players. Years remaining includes this year as well.
