i suppose the one thing to expect on a consistent basis from these types of players is that they will throw it up no matter what (i.e. your 35% 18-52) as opposed to players who pretty much suck at it (i.e. med. JS & in. JR w/only 11 att.)

Yes. Sample size does distort the data somewhat, but it does suggest that the poorer shooters are apparently more open than the good shooters.

of course poorer shooters are open more. that just goes to an example of simple playground basketball. you don't guard the crappy shooter until he proves he can nail the shot on a consistent basis...it's part defense strategy and part head trip. though i wonder how the ME deals with a hot shooter. even if the shooter has bad skill ratings, but gets hot in the game will the defense put more pressure on that player?

Something for a BB to answer, but my belief is that the ME would shift the defence. Can't defend that belief, but if the ME is capable of shifting pressure off one shooter onto another, then it can surely shift it back.

but even your good shooters are worse than mine and are shooting a significantly greater percentage.... (I don't think that their opponents are weaker because 2nd league in england is pretty nice)

don't missunderstand me, I'm not complaining I just want to understand how the engine works... but I'm waiting for him to get hot ever since I've got him ;)

imo he has shot too few jumpshots to say that he's a good shooter from 3p range ;)

fair enough....

he is a PF though and Im hoping for when I have the right guards to play Run & Gun tactics his shooting skills are going to prove useful over the seasons....
