Following in the "food for thought" line, I think it's possible it could balance out as well. A good SB player commands a much higher salary than many of the current effective interior players. That's less money than can be spend towards strong perimeter play. I would believe this will increase the emphasis on a balanced offense and defense, rather than solely being able to focus on Look Inside.

I target only players with average+ to be my guards... In SB that is. But that's me personally

In that case MtM, depending on how they change SB...may start to fail cuz even if they put SB on the bigs, the bigs wont be guarding guards....or people might play LP with high IS guards at C spots or something like that....


Isn't shotblocking also a big part for weakside defenders? With high SB on your bigs, you'd see the "X rotates over and alters the shot/shot blocked" line, wouldn't it? So even though your bigs don't directly defend the guards, they do guard the hoop against them if they drive right?

And is that because of the way the GE works, or because almost everyone has low SB? Does it occur more often with higher SB? If they fix it so it happens significantly more often with high SB, that would make it good enough to defend against LI guards right?

Generally speaking, we will need more IS. But what we really might need with SB soon to work better, is a tactic change.

However, this is not an option for us who are training players especially for LI. In our case, increasing IS is an option, as is increasing driving, and probably handling. I'm not sure, really. We are only speculating here.

Can someone provide a link to where it is stated that SB will be move valued in the GE? I was debating running a cluple trainings on SB because my A-trainee and B-trainees all have low SB. If it is going to be more valued i'd definitely like to get a couple pops for my trainees.
