I am not saying that it won't affect his contribution. I have seen guys score 9 points and grab 3 rebounds in 35 minutes yet still get a 12.0 rating. I don't actually see a big correlation between rating and statistics, and while I understand in real life that statistics are an inadequate measure of a player's peformance, I don't think this GE rates screens, hustle plays, help defense, or other intangible plays.
Most of my games are played against poor competition.My players rate higher when they play more minutes against better players. How does this fit in with the opponent-driven ratings belief?
Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.
