A dunk can still be rejected in the NBA. whether it happens in BB game engine is another story.

A 7 Id 20 SB build if a player had 7 SB to start with would probably require a high 3 or less to stay at 7 or less at 20sb. It would be near impossible if you were to round out a handful of other skills, would probably require a 1. I doubt i would ever find myself in a position to own such a player anyways, it was merely a comment that you are likely to have a capable big @ 27 skill points amongst the two skills.

also - as i recently mentioned to Trainerman in another thread - everyone forgets SB and OD - guards still try to block shots at the 3 point line right? ever had a guard with decent SB stop 3's with blocked shots? works wonders


if that's true, rules should be updated:

"Shot Blocking: Will help to block shots. Not very useful for perimeter players".

Not sure whether this is still true or not, but a while back (a loooong while back) the prevailing wisdom seemed to be that salaries tended to jump more when SB was increased as opposed to ID. As a result, there were a number of players where ID was prioritized over SB when training.

Not an active enough reader of the Forums to know whether this was disproven, changed as a result of a change to the GE, or just fell out of favor. Not a good enough team owner to know the true answer to your question (can't seem to break out of USA Div III).

Without significant data from the rest of BB, i would not believe the comment outright that it reduces shots. It likely reduces an opponent's will to go inside, it might drop shots by 1 or 2 if they can't generate open shots in a slower paced offense, but dropping 6 sounds like abandoned strategy.


I'm not sure what his opponents did. I'll be sure to ask him if anything may have skewed his observation.

that is a good point.

However statistically, a guard with higher SB will block more shots on average per game. So it does contribute to a degree.

i think perhaps what the game manual is suggesting, is that there is no point in training a guard to have Phenomenal SB. The degree to which SB contriubtes to guards defense, is less than - compared to inside defenders.

I would agree with this. I personally love SBing everywhere. Almost all my key players have a good amount of SBing.

My starting 5 players combine to have 45 SB skill points in it, which is pretty high compared to most teams, I believe and it is definitely apparent in my games. In my two playoff games that I have had, I've put up 14 blocks and 17 blocks. I believe I averaged around 11 blocks a game this season, but that is counting in the games in which I did not have my now-starting 85k Center.

So if:
14 ID + 13 SB > 20 ID + 7 SB
then:
14 ID + 13 SB - 14 ID - 7 SB > 20 ID + 7 SB - 14 ID - 7 SB
6 SB > 6 ID
SB > ID
Is that really true?
So then:
20 SB + 7 ID should be even better than 14 ID + 13 SB.
