I mainly agree with you, all skills are important for all players, but sometimes some skills are not good depending on your tactic.
For example if you play look-inside, and your SG has good jump shot skill, he will use it to shot from outside regardless of your tactic, and you will be praying to have him fouled out as soon as possible.+

On the other hand, for me it is clear that the skills should determine the rates, but the rates have a partial influence on the match, so there must be other factors (not talking only about random factor).

If he has good jump shot, shoots jump shots, and makes them, why wouldn't you want that? Tactics=focus, not one dimensional obsession, and points are points regardless. Although I do think big men and lesser shooters shoot too many 3s. Everyone shoots a 3 sometimes, but IRL some big men shoot less than 10 their whole career.

The idea is that:

- you play look-inside (so I understand than you have good reasons for that, such as very strong centers),
- your SG still shoots jump shots (thanks for the correction),

but even being a good shooter he will not score as usual because when you play look-inside you will get more and better oportunities inside (see Rules), and you will get less and worse outside.

Of course, if he is making a lot of points in these conditions, then I'd want this "problem" for my team... ;-)

the point of your offense is to understand what your team strenghts are, if your guards is better than your forwards or centers then you play a guard oriented offense.

likewise if you have a pretty bloody shooter but opt to play inside tendency he will still shoot the ball but on a offense rotated play meaning

1. if his open
2. trying to create to help clear the defensive clog you have inside. but it will still be mainly inside guys who plays most on this out.

remember at the course of the game, your coach adjusts but wont differ much to the type of offense you declare, so expect your SG to score or run the ball but if you ran the % of touches your forwards or centers get it it more.
