I have a player with 17 JS and only 8 JR. I've found that this combo keeps his salary dow to a minimum. He has Marvelous driving and Marvelous Handling plus Sensational OD yet his salary is well under 30k a week. He has been putting up decent %'s at 40% 3's and about 35 FG%

At the same time my other guard who has Tremendous JS and Prolific JR is the leading scorer and seems to out perform the first player.... Not sure which way to go with these results...

JR for guards has more impact to salary than JS. It can be important for some users and therefore it can be next argument that they prefer JS than JR.

Low shooting percentages may have more to do with the offense and the quality of defense they are playing.

yep......that's why everyone keeps making these "omg LI is unstoppable" posts...

It's not that its unstoppable, its just people have found a way to run an offense that can beat the standard 18OD guard stacked defensive teams...and I dont see why thats a bad thing either....OD shouldn't be some godly broken stat that wins games by itself.

Er... Correct me if I'm wrong, but since

Jump Shot: A better shooter will make more shots at all distances.
and
Jump Range: A player with a higher jump range will find that the effectiveness of his jump shot decreases less with distance.

Doesn't it make all the more sense to train JS? If you follow the 2 statements above, a guy with legendary JS and average JR would beat a guy with average JS and legendary JR anytime.


that would depend how hard the decline with the range is, and in my eyes both player would be pretty bad. As Wolph is trying to say here, that he measure both with similiar importance and don't like the Jumpshooters without range. I am quite sure this would also count for the different direction which is much harder to train.
