It seems OD is the skill to the best way for defense. However, how about passing and handling skills? Both skills seem very important for offense, are they underrated?

What do you think? Feel free to discuss / debate.

Honestly I think Jump Range is frequently underestimated. People assume outside offenses are garbage because they don't use the correct types of players, or else they have one guy with good JS and JR and he can't get the job done.

I've found that once you have two players capable of hitting threes their production spikes enormously. One player alone will get shut down by high OD, but when there are multiple players with outside scoring capabilities (that means good JR) they can be hard to stop.

Of course LI is still the best way to win the B3

I also think that JR is underestimated. Let's just remember that a player shooting 33% from 3 (which is very a doable) is essentially equal to a player shooting 50% from 2

I think the really issue is not that we dont think that outside offense works but its not really cost effective to build players with JR that have high OD/Flow or not enough time to put a decent amount of IS on. I think things would get really interesting if JR cost the same in salary and cap as IS on guards.

Hey boss,

We are talking about underrated skills and not your hatred of OD/IS you can post about that in one of your thousands of threads that you post long diatribes about it in. Please don't ruin this thread.
