Just like in real life, defense wins games.

I agree that the best skills in his team is by far OD, ID, IS and SB. He does not seem to train anything else... maybe DR. I also believe that he is full in enthusiasm. If he trains his team only in defense... I hate to think what will happen when he starts training offensive skills!!!!

his JS/JR is low b/c it raises salary.
guards have high driving/handling skills.
whole team (esp. big men) have good passing.
shot blocking raises salary, i doubt his big men have above respectable sb.
guards score inside by driving to the net, instead of taking jump shots & 3 pters.
and rebounding is a whole team thing. so, guards have respectable rebounding and big men dont have too much rebounding (raises salary)

these are all assumptions but I have personally transformed my team from having the highest salary in my league in allstar weekend (and losing 4 games) to having a below-average salary after allstar weekend (and losing 0 games).

the main thing i look at is not keeping js/jr low but instead keeping dr/ha high & PASSING + REBOUNDING being a whole team thing. I dont buy any guards who have lower than 6 rebounding or 8 passing. I dont buy any big men who have lower than 7 passing.

If you add stamina to all the above... I believe you have a pretty good explanation!!

That's true. I had a guy with Proficient Stamina and now I have a guy with Pitiful Stamina. First one played around 35-40 minutes/game with hardly any drop in qualitiy of his game. The other is also playing very good...for appr. 25-28 minutes/game. So for his backup, I have to have a quality guy because he will play at least 15-20 minutes. Meanwhile, I had a bum as a backup for the first guy because he had to play only 5-10 minutes per game. So training Stamina is also a means to reduce salaries.

Sorry for changing subject a bit here. With 35-40min per game = 70-80min per week. Is it difficult to get up and maintain good GS for your Proficient Stamina player? Does high Stamina means he can play longer without hurting GS? I've always wonder about this but don't have anyone any where Proficient Stamina to know.

It's true, I had a bit of problems maintaining his GS at Strong or Proficient. So either he started two games, but one of them was a blowout, or he started one and came off the bench in the second. One week he had a bit of too many minutes, another week a bit less, so it worked out eventually since GS builds up through more consecutive weeks.

Thanks for the info.

Wow, I was afraid of that. So a player is "penalized" for having good stamina which is very odd. Stamina should be closely tied to GS.
