Hey guys what are your opinions in shot-blocking ability? Does it contribute a lot in the team's defense in-paint? I am truly not impressed how a player with a top-notch SB but only avg like 1-2 blocks per game. It seems like they did some changes so a high SB doesn't make your salary sky-rocketing but still i doubt if it's useful in this game???

I honestly could not tell you. I do not think of it as a primary skill still, but I know lots of people do now

You have to believe in it for it to work.

by the same reasoning, an OD that results in only 1 or two steals a game is worthless, or perhaps, worth less. for some reason, most managers in this game find this statement ludicrous. i think the same thing when i see someone trashing SB.

i think the value of SB, in addition to the stat in the box score, is in the shots distorted or otherwise interfered with -- in other words, check out the other team's shooting percentage against a C (and of course other players) with a high SB -- i bet you will find their percentage is notably lower.

SB is not an end-all and be-all to a good team defense, but i do believe it is a very important component.

How can you list someone who has a TLP estimate of $1 -$15K for $4.888 Milliion? Even if you got that, wouldn't you be penalized and if you weren't penalized, wouldn't you feel like you were unjustly rewarded? Wouldn't it taint any accomplishment your team makes in this game? I don't understand how you would enjoy this game this way or feel good about chasing away people who just get frustrated about competing against unlimited bank rolls.
