Passing is a controversial one to some. I know a lot of teams that put very little weight into it.In my experience in the NBBA anyone with 14 or more passing is going to be among the best passers. I like to make sure all of my players have decent passing, especially my bigs as it is super cheap on their salary. My C was at one point leading the league in assists until he was put into more of a backup role. I think the type of offense you run also impacts how much passing you need.
