Why can't my sf Ruperez score? It confuses me sooo much. He has prolific jump shot, proficient jump range, and prominent driving. Plus most of the sf's he plays against don't have that great of defensive skills yet he rarely scores more than 15 points. Is it because he doesn't have a great inside shot (its only average), but I play mostly outside oriented offenses, and yet he doesnt score? Am I missing something here? I know this is not a very "good" question but why can't he score?

barr and obregon are your best scorers and options #1 and 2. most of ruperez' shots might be forced shots, decreasing his FG% and PPG.

its his inside shot...

he doesnt shoot many 3's and when he does he isnt that good ..




PS ... you cant play base off., and expect him to go off....
Barr has better skills, and is more likely to take an outside shot as is Oberon if his OS is also higher...
and then, your PF and C is more likely to take the IS making Ruperez 3rd option ... blah blah.

"this is my understanding of the game engine, and the input of each position on it :)"

he's more likely to go off at SG playing base off... however not likely with those skills in this league. Guard play here is simply T O U G H ... G8 has a few Kobe's.
test my theory .. ruperez at SG.. check his D input also..

Yeah I know with the base offense thing, but its been all season pretty much. Yeah I would like to try him at sg, but I have no one to play sf then, I really need to upgrade that position, but I don't have the cash at the moment.

Thanks for the input.

I was wondering, are teams gonna try to 2-3 zone me from now on? I thought the Full court press was a better strategy to tell the truth.. If too many folks do 2-3 then I change up and do motion with my scorers adamopolus, abbondanza and Inxautsti
But even though it will lead to a field day for me in the paint, Full Court Press at least limits my shot opportunities.. though FCP takes more stamina to use..

that was my thought process. your team is looking strong I may even say as much of a chance of winning the title as hawks, maybe more after destroying them
