Ok,but these could be the point to start for a discussion on a better role for SB,a marginal skill in confront of ID,IS an REB but that one user can chose to train at a medium level(9-10 on 20)


or i get the importance it had in the salary calculaton, and in my eyes inr eal basketball you can not be a good inside defender without any anticipation for a block^^ It is just a part of defence, but without it you are incomplete.

I believe BB was created to be a multiskill player game. There should be different combinations of skill wich, in a tactical-dependet set, can be effective.

We think that SB in the pure sense of shotblocks is low priority skill in circumstances that there should exist some multiskill combination wich should include a high level of SB in an effective way. What I'm trying to say is that SB must be a skill that should be interesting to train until high levels for some trainers. Currently, is not the case.

We have been having this conversation about the role of SB. In the end, I think that you, CrazyEye and me want SB to be an important skill somehow. Having the terms previously discussed in mind.

I remember BB-Forrest said in this or another thread that He thinks SB should have some effect on the defense of a shot that is going to be made. I asked him if that feature was implemented but I had no answer so I assume it was not.

In europe,where the game is more technical and less physical than in USA,the best defenders note necessariely are good shot blockers
And players like Dennis Rodman and Shane Battier are some of the best defender in the paint without being great shot blockers.SB is the "physical"part of the defence,but a players like Chris Bosh has the physical qualities but 0 appointment and 0 technique so,also if he could be a great shot blocker,is one of the worst defender of all the league
The defence isn't incomplete without shot blocking

but even in europe the player try to affect the "shooting lane", and good shot blockers depends on 90% timing. If you like to get a shot blocked you need timing, else you just jump around like chris bosh ;) And even a block try could make it harder to hit, and i think most common are those try where the shooter react and change the way to shoot.

And without that your defence isn't complete. But maybe reply me in this old thread, before we totally dominate this thread with this topic -> (67475.1)

bout 20 posts late but oh well good reading.
my point of view is sb is still too weak when you take into consideration its cost.

my point of view is sb is still too weak when you take into consideration its cost.

Also a legendary driving has an high cost,and without training one or both the shots(JS-IS) is useless(and training 1 vs 1 gave also an high handling,so another high cost in skill)
When you think how try to make SB more useful,you have not to think to the costs,but you have to think how the use of this skill could be more realistic
that's the point.

theres plenty of forum posts in last few weeks about how having high driving is still very useful without the js or is.
sb is still the most overpriced useless skill as it is.

and the good thing on driving is, you train it mostly for free and even the direct training bring a lot of other nice skill with it especially on SF/PF. And in the end it is also very cheap^^
