Is it possible to get the "BA" (blocked attempts = how often a specific player was blocked) stat added to the boxscore? This would be a pretty interesting info :)

hm. Why would it be interesting? I think it tells more about the players he went up against, then about himself, no?

a horrible player could have 0 shots blocked because he never faced a decent blocker in his face, while a more then average player can get many shots blocked because he played "magic Block Maniac" a lot of times in his carreer...

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

But then again, this may be true for most other shooting statistics.

also true...

You surely meant to say "Nick Van Exel's assist stats were manipulated in home games at one point in time"...


Did you even read what is written on the website I posted the link to?

I thought a GM would know better than post spam in a suggestions thread...
