The long debate stems from the fact that Shotblocking was less useful before the most recent slew of game engine changes. And since people still seem to refuse to train it, it's hard to make an accurate


maybe that could be point of the fact that the player who have it, don't "use" it.

Or maybe people have unrealistic expectations about it. I don't know.

Lets say that u r C is getting 2bpg. Its that those 2 blocks enough to justify 10-12 on SB and the salary that is coming with that? Why not train ID for the same price? the opponent will go against my big man for 10-20 times, some times even more. Thats why ppl dont like to train SB.

If now the SB disrupt the opponents offensive flow (just like in the real game) then it will make SB a real useful skill. Also if the big men have SB why guards doesnt have a steal skill?

Check out Jabbar in 1980 or Worthy in other Laker years.
Tony Parker was series MVP in the finals 3 years ago.

You can train passing for big men. You just don't want to. It is as simple as that.
U r joking me right? Give me a reasonable way to train PA my C's without having to act like a farm team. Even the farm teams having hard time to train there big men on PA couz as we all know its very slow for tall players.

Tony Parker. Well he was the MVP, but u forget to mention that he is playing with a player that when he will retire will go down as the best PF ever, even if on my eyes he is C. Parker barely mentioned as a HOF, and all saying that he is young, he has time for that. Also passing or 3pt shooting are not his strong points either. If u have watched some games of the Spurs u could see that the actual creator for them was Manu not TP.

About the Lakers. I already mentioned ''since magic''

In real life game when u have a dominant SB in u r team then it prevents the guards driving to the basket, therefor leads them on bad outside shots. Thats This is what i mean offensive flow disruption.

Anyway i think that is fair to ask some more skills that we will be able to train as a big men trainers,(C or C/PF positions) just like passing or JS. If u tweak something from those then monsters like Cardenas will be history. The managers will looking for more balanced players if that will make them equally or more useful without having to pay those monster salaries that the elite Cs are getting.

Well u r right about that but they didnt take on there considerations when they changed the value of the guards and how diminished the role of the big men as a main options on scoring. I love all around players but is much much easier to find a complete guard than a complete C, and if u find one then u have to sell u r half team to buy him. Thats why more and more teams using outside attacks than inside, with big men being just role players.

Big changes on the training its hard to be made for sure, but again what is happening right now its not the ideal either.

I agree with you on that. It seems a lot of people are still denying that outside players have an enormous advantage over inside players in the new GE. They're constantly giving the same old offensive flow argument even after they've been given examples where flow was currently not the issue.

The problem is there aren't too many example to show, and this has done little to support your point.
