Did you ever see Bill Hanzlik defend Ralph Sampson?

i know hanzlick had years where he played all 5 positions and i did not see him guard Sampsom. If he did which sampson did he guard was it the depleted both knees are problems are the young kid who was part of the twin towers.

You keep using players who are the minority. Lets talk about every day players and their skill sets not the players who have special skills or are able to get buy playing a position that allot of their peers cant. You have allot of guys wo come into the league and are tweeners and never become starters because they cant fit into a syste here because of bad passing, rebounding or plain old defence.

Here every BB player can do what ever they want like in a playground pickup game.

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em, Know when to walk away and know when to run. You never count your money when youre sittin at the table. Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done.

that is not a reason why it cant be changed. Maybe you dont understand my question. You say it cant be changed. Why cant it be changed. I understand how it works. I disagree with it but that is a different story.

Why cant it be changed . Why should this not be part of the game. What is the reasoning that you say it cant be changed. And please stop giving one liners that you think makes it obvious and explain with details on why it cant or have someone who can explain why it cant be implemented.

Thank you

This is one of the funniest threads ever...

Of course it can be changed or let's say, it could be changed. But apparently everybody else but you think that the current method is a better one.

you probably play charazay, where both height and weight matter. Height changes for players below 18yo and you can send players to 'fitness centers' to modify their weight in order to make them perform better in the position you want them to play.

Here it works differently. For the hundredth time, the skills are absolute and already include the height. Do you think that my gram pa can rebound better than me just because he is 3'' taller?

The mismatch is created by the different training speeds. The game is relatively new, but in the long term it will work just fine (already does imo).

You don't like it? Sorry for you.
You don't understand it? Reread this thread.
You don't accept it? Write in the suggestion forum and hope for a change.

Amen.

The longer the game evolves, the better the height factor in training will be visible. Almost all the best centers in BB will be big guys.
Sure, there will be some smaller players who 'll have a great rebounding stat, but they won't reach the ultimate BB-top in the long run.
A bit of patience and you should be fine.

Sure, it could be changed, but there doesnt appear much reason to do so. You said Wallace and Rodman are rarities. In the NBBA, 8/10 of the top rebounders are 6'10" or greater. The other two are (like wallace/rodman), 6'7".

Top division to top division compare really well. Nothing to change here IMO.

Btw, I don't think there is any reason to be concerned about tall players that don't take enough rebounds.

Quick check:

top rebounders of your league:
6'11" / 7'0" / 6'11" / 6'7" / 6'11" / 7'1" / 7'1" / 6'8" / 7'3" / 6'11"

They seem to be tall enough according to me.
I admit there's a 6'7" and a 6'8". But that's just 2/10 and they will be training slower then the others.
This game is still young, season 5 just started...

Many High School teams don't have real big men, many College teams have big men no taller than 6'8 and have offenses that BB has to take advantage of small lineups.

You must think 3 dimensional not 2 just be smart with what you have and train right. we don't know how many seasons it too to make those little guys rebounding beasts.

Besides there are way too many 7 footers anyway.

That is what is not real. There should be a numerical premium when it comes to big guys.......... true big guys.

When I was is HS the center was 6'4, the game plan on offense was to run, run, run and gun, and 5 on the boards. We won more than we lost, finished second in the league and got to the quarter finals.

In many ways RL experience can help here.

For heavens sake just adapt.
