in team ratings, you cannot argue with that.


I can because I can see in your team ratings that the outside defense is not so high that your player can do 5 shot blocks per game!

Look at your player H.Nellas, he do his most shot blocks in a game with an high outside defense, of course it also depends how much higher is the defense against the opponent offense...

Maybe Nellas is the exception that makes the rule. Most shot blocking occurs in the paint.

I think shot blocking occurs insight and outside but mostly if there is a clear advantage... but its only my personal experience, so who knows.

FYI: my best block shot guy is only 1,88 m

Yes, I know it does in the simulation. I meant in real basketball, shot blocking is normally more common in the paint.

hey steve,

lets not also look pass that in the nba, a lot of shot blocking comes from help defense. there are only a number of players who have that ability to block shots face to face, mourning, motumbo, ostertag ( yes he can ) etc.

did you think david robinson blocks came from facing the guy. i read it before at some analysis at him since he cant lead his team to win a championship then. if i remember is right was it 60 to 70 % of his blocks comes from help defense.

also another is if your only guy in their that can block shots but you got really good inside D youll probably get more blocks.

:D

I suddenly came into thinking that maybe good shot blockers must be old... Ü

Nellas is 34...Ü

Totally agree here -- in the NBA and elsewhere, a lot of shot blocking is occurring when the offensive player beats his man and drives towards the basket only to find golith still there to beat. Still generally in the paint though.

I'm guessing that maybe where the BB simulation differs from RL. Not sure how there model works, but I'm guessing it has an offensive player selected and based on that and the defensive scheme, a defensive player is selected. So if the defensive player isn't the shot blocker, then there is really no chance of a blocked shot. That's conjecture on my part though.
