I think the point is that a player's defensive success in that situation could be affected by his ID rating only.

Okay, but this doesn't come up that often in a match (at least not the ones I just had a quick look at then). It doesn't seem to happen more than half a dozen times.
For example, I checked in the NZBL where the team has a phenomenal shot blocker, and looked at his games, and that line only comes up once in his last game, and twice in the game before that.

I agree it is probably undervalued a lot, but I just wish there was more evidence to back up what Charles is telling us. I don't believe he is deceiving us, but I don't want a team with shotblocking at 4 levels above ID because charles said it had more value that we gave credit.

Best way to do it would be to run a private league with 4 teams that all want to learn about shot blocking, and share the skills of all the players and then work out what is happening.

One of the best Shot Blocker in germany div one, the last two years ;) For me a reasonable price when he affect the same number of affected shots BUT:

The best Shot Blocker in the league when you look at the skill(14+, big guy skills was also in the 14-15 area and the outside skill aren't bad even when he is still more a C), who make 1 block in 27,1 min/1,4blk in 29min in the same time.

shotblocking is not to block the attacker's every shot but to make him think that you might block every shot.

bill russell

so I believe Shot block can make a player change his natural angle, get in his face, make him take an altered shot with less chance of going in and that also depends on the level you face. if a player have great driving and handles, you cant even get close enough to block his shot so there no point if you dont have ID and maybe even OD since OD is suppose to be perimeter defense so equal on ball defense. if you cant even stay in front of your man how are you going to block his shot?
