I've heared people saying that a low grade in handling with a high level of driving will couse lot's of TO...

I'm definitely thinking about shotblocking... It's almost useless

I read in some news before that shot blocking will be changed maybe in the next season?

I thinks it's close but I give the edge to SB because it jacks up your players salary more than most skills do (in my experience)

I had a SG with promminent driving and average handling and he averaged 1.6 t.o. a game during that stretch.

BB are going to improve both assits and blocks next year, I read it's by lowering certain calculations...

like the quality of the pass to the player who scores. The pass ends up being 0.5 for it to bew an assist or something like that and they'll lower it to 0.3 to get assists up in the game. I think shot blocking will end up being similar and you'll see more blocks next year, but as far as changes to the GE I don't think we'll see anything until season 10...

Currently I would say Shotblocking by a country mile.

You hardly see any good PGs not trained in Handling, but you see the majority of inside players trained in 3 of the 4 inside skills. Shotblocking is rarely ever trained currently. Says it all.

Stamina is a lot more valuable than you think.


Indeed.

Handling is only important when opposing team plays full court press or when their defenders are superb in OD. Otherwise, it's pretty useless.

IMO, shotblocking can actually be useful for guards, contrary to what the rules say, because they can block jump shots.

Stamina - if you have atrocious, player won't play a lot in the game, and by the end, his performance decreases. So, it's important.

For high driving, low handling, the TO are probably more due to the passing skill of the player, not the handling.
