Thanks everyone for the comments.

Stats wise. These are the differences.

new guy has better stats on all skills except for IS, which is the same... Rebounding, inside def, and experience are lower (experience iis only 1 stat level difference).
These are hardly things which i thought would make a difference to a guy playing SG.
also, game shape has yet to be a problem.

At this stage, I havent played the new guy enough yet to really discover what the deal is, but maybe my expectations were just unrealistic.

hows his stamina btw? maybe thats kinda low..... n i had the same issue last yr with one of my players i brought him in for scoring but after a few games even after playing a ton mins he wasnt producing i ended up selling him but i still dont knw why that happens especially when the player was so good on his old team

yer that might be it, ill have to buy a few more spanish guys for him to talk to!

Stamina is not an issue, both players stamina stat is the same.

I wasnt really expecting him to come in and score 20 ppg, because I play a low-post offence most of the time. But I have to admit, my team's offensive flow has improved since he has started playing.

The interesting thing is, is that his assists are the same as my previous SG (compared to last year) but his shot numbers are just way down. Last season my SG took on average about 10 shots per game for a 13ppg average.

My new SG is only taking 6.5 shots per game, for 7 ppg average. His FG% is the same compared to last year.

The only theory that i have, is that my C and PF ive been training last year and this year, and so now they are compotent enough to take more shots per game, because their shooting stats are up. Their numbers are slightly up.
But still, nearly 4 shots less per game, on average? For no other benefit? Seems odd to me.
Anyways, he is injured and due back in a couple of weeks. I will put him back in when he is better, and see how he goes for the rest of the season.

That might be it.
Additionally he might have a better passing skill, and together with the inside orientated tactics and the better flow your guards just don´t need to take that many shots than last season.
Play an outside offense and he will on average be better than your former SG.

I bought a player a few days ago and in his first game, while in proficient GS, shot 2-24 against a crappy defense...
