can please all calm a bit down, i hate it to delete post but this discussion is about of drifting of to much and gets personal.

Thank you.

Didn't read all the posts but take a look at this guy (6879068) he has 18+ js/jr and look at his 15 season stats when he played against strong competition only 41%fg ; 33%3pt ..Actually i looked at tl for +16 js/jr guys and its hard to find one with good % that plays agaisnt strong competition...

I didn't read all posts but from my experience i can say that FG% is extremely dependent on many factors not just JS. Some of those are:

- tactics employed (how well the tactics suit your player)
- offensive flow (passing of teammmates)
- JR, DV and IS depending on the types of shots taken (closely related to tactics employed)
- opposing defender OD (self-explanatory)
- pace (slow pace results in better shot attempts and better FG%)
- ST and EXP late in the game

All in all JS is not the "end all be all" skill for shooting but is still important. I have owned a player with low JS and i can tell you low JS is a huge problem.

I guess it depends on the type of offense you play?

Ideal SG for inside offense would be something like:

Jump Shot: prodigious Jump Range: wondrous
Outside Def.: legendary Handling: wondrous
Driving: prodigious Passing: wondrous
Inside Shot: proficient Inside Def.: respectable
Rebounding: respectable Shot Blocking: respectable

obviously DR and PA is more important here. IS to go along with DR will draw a lot of fouls from SG without ID and SB. dont need that much JS and JR for him to thrive.

ideal SG for outside offense (RNG not motion):

Jump Shot: legendary Jump Range: stupendous
Outside Def.: legendary Handling: wondrous
Driving: wondrous Passing: sensational
Inside Shot: respectable Inside Def.: strong
Rebounding: respectable Shot Blocking: respectable



I just think each offense differs too much from another aside from the LP and LI so you cant just make a SG suitable for all offense. isolation offense, you might need a 300-400k SG.

if passing makes a difference in FG% than i probably shoulda read this thread before i bought this player yesterday.

That's part of the equation. However, there's another factor coming into play. Whenever a player has the ball, he has to decide whether it's better to shoot the ball now or pass it on (or drive to the basket). Better passing for a player means that passing up instead of taking a bad shot is going to happen more often, in turn increasing a players' Shooting% (while decreasing his shot attempts).

PG passing should be at least prominent to make good move to make a basket.
