Handling is only important when opposing team plays full court press or when their defenders are superb in OD. Otherwise, it's pretty useless.

IMO, shotblocking can actually be useful for guards, contrary to what the rules say, because they can block jump shots.

Stamina - if you have atrocious, player won't play a lot in the game, and by the end, his performance decreases. So, it's important.

For high driving, low handling, the TO are probably more due to the passing skill of the player, not the handling.

I would buy a player with Atrocious SB, but not Atrocious Handling. I try to avoid Atrocious in anything when buying, but to me Shotblocking is the one skill I wouldnt avoid a player if he was atrocious.

Stamina is a lot more valuable than you think.


shhh!

Surprised no one has said jump range. Though I think it has value to a certain point (9-10?), anything past that seems a waste of training.

Shot blocking is prob the least valuable, though more so for big men then guards. I have guards with 6-7 sb and it regularly makes a difference.

Handling should also be more important with GE changes in season 9, as turnovers are set to be increased.

It's an hard fight between driving and shotblocking but the winner is....shotblocking!
Why?Because,further to be useless,a player with high shot blocking have an huge salary to bear for the user
Some Nt teams thank that some centers lose so many training time in this skill;at this time,if they had been trained in the other main center skills,these players would have been able to be real monsters

You cant compete in high level leagues with starters below respectable stamina.

Stamina is most definitely important, and players with low stamina definitely do suffer.

Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score

But your 2nd 5 is probably still better than (or at the least, competitive with) any of the competition's starting 5 you'll face. There's maybe a handful of teams in the whole world that can boast that level of dominance and depth over their domestic competition.

For the rest of us, 1 week of stamina training will have, by far, more impact on your teams performance then any other training.
