Is it just my league or are the top 10 players in the league for Points Per Game all outside based players?

Anyone in a league where there are more inside players on the charts? I couldn't find any yet.

That's the way it generally is in professional bball too. Most of the highest scorers are either shooting guards or small forwards and when you think about it, that's their main role really.

That, and with the invention of the 3pt shot, it really is hard for inside players to compete in scoring. However, one of my old leagues in Season 6 had the MVP as 23 per game scorer at the PF position. He had the scoring title as well, and second in rebounds.

In BB, its depend on the tactic and skills of the players.

Unlikely as the players with biggest salaries are the inside players whose managers usually employ an inside focus offensive. It just seems geared that the biggest scorers are from the SG/SF position regardless of what you run.

Yeah, I do realize that it does mimic real life basketball, just an observation though. Rarely see any inside players in the top 10 scorers.

Haha, now there's an exception! However I noticed that the highest PPG in the JBBL is 20+ points, which is still achievable for an inside player. In the MBBA, the PPG leader is an outside player averaging 35 points per game. Hard to see an inside player churning out those sort of points.
