I wanted to create a player like that but I don't have the time for it right now.

It's also true that, when you were losing 87-94, you were able to tie the game because you made 3 3-point shots in the last seconds, while he had poor free-throw shooters and had a couple of turnovers.
Moreover, during the ET the other team had 4 turnovers, and he shot only 9 times (2 made). The only one who scored with a field shot was his Center, indeed (2-4 during the ET for him, not so different from the percentages of his whole match), while his other players missed all their shots (forcing 3pt shots in the last seconds while using look inside is not the best situation you can have...). His other players had been his problem, not his center.

He lost mainly because of turnovers (which is not an effect of the opponent's SB, I suppose) and missed free throws, in my opinion. If he had better shooters you wouldn't have been able to tie the game.

Namely, I don't understand why against Indic the opponent center would have played worse. It would be interesting to see ALL the stats (especially percentages) of his center against Indic and against Arias (I'm not supporter, so I can't see play-by-play). It's not said that Indic's SB has stopped him, maybe the opponent C played at the same way... :)


Just my opinion.

It's hard to base SB's effectiveness on a single game. If it really is a very effective skill against LI, I'd buy 2 players with high SB and shut LI down. But it doesn't. I think moutinho tried a couple of high SB players and it was nothing special.
