Nothing really to add, except I've noticed that my most successful scorers are not the ones with the highest JS or Drive or Range, but the ones with the right combination.

I always scout the opposing team and put my best defender on the opposing teams best scorer or high salaried player.. I know a lot if managers do this so that's another reason why skilled players have low efficiency and not the best stats.

Still though to really get this thread going, to even justify any discussion, we need hard data...otherwise we are trying to come up for explanation for how you feel about what you think you have observed. Even if I agree and see the same thing, its just our impression, it can't stand in place of actual data.


Definitely. The only thing I have is a guy who consistently shoots jump shots better when he's guarded than he does on open shots, and this isn't a case of matching up with poor OD big men. Through two and a half seasons, the tally is now 92/167 when guarded, 66/157 when open - with similar distributions over each individual season to date. That's probably the only thing I have with anything approaching a reasonable sample size, though small sample stuff like two 8JR bigs are 8-9 on open threes while my 15JS 15JR SG is 4/20 on open threes is fun but not significant.

I'm having similar questions.
Check out (62536003) and have a look at PFs!

I suspect new GE is mucked.

Um, more like "have a look at the PGs!". Your opponent's 177k strong game shape PG shot 6-20 against your 22k respectable game shape PG. Your 22k PG shot 5-7 against his 177k PG. I checked to confirm they were both matched up against each other.

There's nothing weird about your game, though. Definitely, definitely nothing weird about the PF match-up.

Yeah, I've also seen this. I think there's a synergy between skills so it's more about trying to find the right combinations than just getting higher and higher skills.

I have also nitced that my center who i usually play with lower but very decent outside skills than pf tends to shoot way better. he shots 51 percent and 31 percent 3pt while being my lowest shooter on the team while my best posible missmatching i think highest js and jr in a team combined playing at pf/sf tends to shoot around 45 percent 30 percetn 3pt... and not to mention guards with litle lower js jr shots crap oput like 35 percent....
