Actually, physical abilities are to some degree in the current engine already - they are just not displayed as a physical ability, but they can be found by their initial skillset and their development.

So a "huge wingspan" might translate into good shotblocking and OD, great shotblocking on a SF paired with a great JS can be read as vertical lift aswell as good rebounding with a tiny guard, Passing and Handling is not only the Basketball IQ, but aswell the smoothness of the hands, courtside vision and his ability to handle the ball at hight speed.

Silly Driving with a Good OD might be the result of his natural quickness, and a huge body with high Rebounding and ID could be interpreted as Upper Body Strenght.

So "Training ID" might not be just on the court work, but aswell working on his Bulk. Rebounding Ups and Inside Shot can be results from working on his footwork...

Physical Abilities are there, just not "pure" but in their relevance to their ingame impact.

yar this is like what i said! - just gotta use your imagination a little bit. Even things such as 'mental toughness' or 'strategic ability' - Experience + game shape - or something like that.

anyways, totally agree with your comments LA-seelenjaeger

except for

Silly Driving

' - although i think you meant to type silky.

So id like to raise a new suggestion. We need a new skill descriptor, called 'Silly'

This can be below 'atrocious'.

Player X has Average handling and Silly Passing. ha.

;)

Silly was meant to read as "insane" ... so ... someone who hasn´t a catch and fire shot, but can create his own shot at will when faced with an opponent.

and Silky!

Silky skills.

ummm what else.

sweet
rad
funky
Primo
Nice
Disasterous
Horrendous
Woeful
Scary

I like these more than the current names... At least these actually seem in order.

ha nice one!

they wouldnt be able to use girly though - BB would have a discrimination lawsuit filed against it in a jiffy.

how about crybaby?
