well i get what you are saying. btw, the quy you just showed me made me smile so +1 ball for you:)

But how come my guy with sensational FT shoots so well. I mean 95.5 is like a hall of fame percentage(in reality), that's the issue, it seems quite uneven, or maybe just not seeing it from the right point of view

I agree with you in general (in fact managers unsatisfied by FT percentage should train that instead of complaining), but the case you reported:
Lets take this guy for example (7095293) He probably is the worse FT shooter in the game. He now has more then 0/1000 FT. He is also at atrocious like your guy.

is simply ridiculous.
It's even more ridiculous that he has a 370k$ wage. Even Shaq or... any 5-year-old kid can do better than him.

I assume also that he has a great JS value, and that's a skill that should be strictly related to FT shooting.

Just my opinion.

Actually he doesn't have more than respectable JS but he does have huge passing.

How do you figure? A free throw is a free throw, not a jump shot.

make your conclusion about more free throws, and his percentage would be down. it isn't so unlikely that an 80-85% free throw shooter will hit 21 of 22. And sensational isn't that bad either.

Maybe after three pops in JS you get a secondary pop in FT. This way JS correlates to FT% like it does in real basketball.

Yes, but I've never seen a good jump shooter who's an awful FT shooter

But even Shaq trained FT ;-) Meanwhile this player never tried. So he never scored - it's elementary ;-)
If player (or his owner) doesn't want to train FT we can't put gun to his head and force him to train ;-)
In real life we can see crazy players too, like for example Manute Bol, who was probably only man on the world who made more blocks than points in career ;-) So if somebady in BB wants to have freak player, he should get him ;-)
