i'd also likme to pitch a question

What is more useful:
Driving and jumpshot
or driving an inside shot.

Would there be a greater effect (if any) if you combine driving with inside shot, my NBA example/thinknig of this would be a dwayne wade dunk/layup or would, say a guard, have better results if, NBA example: they drivew past their defenders and pull up for a 2 point shot.

now this may probably vary for position, so for argument sake, lets use a SF.
is it more effectibe for the SF to have IS/driving or JS/driving

thank you

My 5 Swiss Francs:

My guards have driving around 9-12:

1. Driving is important for guards

2. Guards with high driving dunk the ball more likely (Higher shooting %)

3. Very good in combination with passing, players with high driving and passing choose the right option on the field

4. Guards get fouled more often

5. It's nonsense that some people here talk about driving beeing useless

If you want me to proove it, I cant, but my experience showed that.

My experience with the game showed, that driving is a good skill for all positions. Shot Blocking is not worth training for Guards, but a nice to have.. a 6or7 shot blocking guard blocks the ball every second game in my league.

You mix things up, Jump Shot is different than driving.. If you have guards with high passing, id rather train jump shot for big man than driving, no passing around i would go for driving and jumpshot. It still remains, ID, IS and Rebounding are the most important skills for bigmen, if you also have jump shot they are even stronger.

I think driving will gain importance, as soon the tactics isolation play is avaiable..

From what I have read so far... High Driving can actually do more harm than good if your player dont have a high IS plus JS, JR? to backs it up. Stick with the core JS ;) people who like high salary are suckers for them. LOL
