but if Shaq was a BB player his free throw would definitely be atrocious


Looking at the results this is definitely not the case.

He'd be more inept or so.

Also worst NBA free throw % of all time=41%. But I think people will end up adjusting, if you draft an atrocious FT shooter do free throw training a couple of times every season until comfortable.

He obviously meant on a hypothetical NBA scale.
By the way, I agree that FTs are a bit of a problem, but mainly with the atrocious guys. Meaning the guys that shoot like 5% or less. If you raise it to even pitiful, he can shoot about 35-40%, which is acceptable for a lvl.2 on a scale from 1-20.

There were some interesting ideas thrown out in the Italian forum, including incorporating a bit of FT training into every training that involves shooting, so you avoid the problem of having a 40% 3-point shooter shoot 20% from the FT line, which obvisouly does not make any sense. Or decrease the scale for FT skill from a 20-point scale to a 10-point scale.

I think if we're gonna compare the NBA to BB. Then it should only be the top league (NBBA) in USAs case. that should be taken into account.

It would make sense that as this game progresses that the players in that league will have above 60% FTP and as we go down the league this will decrease. I'm league III so i wouldnt expect anything like the NBA numbers at all. (athough maybe high school).
