A FEW SUGGESTIONS

I have a few suggestions.

Theres a few players who are still underated.

Heres are some players and issues that should be fixed.

Trevor Ariza--speed, quickness, Steal

Fred Jones-- FG, 3PT, IS, QUICKNESS, SPEED, DRIBBLE, DREB

Dwayne WADE, Al Harrington, Ron Artest-- INSIDE SCORING

Also look up kyle Korver, James Jones, Chris Wilcox. I think deserves better ratings.

And also some players are over rated. Just check out Antoine Walker. He has a FG of 83 and Inside scoring of 77, which I think is way too high.

Noted.

Decrease Pat Garrity's FG.(87 is rediculous for a 42% career FG who tends to take a lot of wide open shots)

Give Fortson a big bump in rebounding.(my roster has him ~90s in both Off and def)

Tweak Grant Hill's rating(it appears he's back for real, look at the box scores). Especially dribble, quickness, offability and fatigue.

Inside scoring for Carlos Boozer should be higher.

And of course Lebron James needs some work as well.

Thanks Pylon_Man, will do.

Hes more suggestions:

Luke Jackson is slow, can't dribble and has no shot. Need to be fix. He can knock down the 3s.

Joe Jonson FG and 3pt ratings needs to go up. He's 30-57 526% from the 3pth line.

Increase Iguodala's steal

Darius Miles FG

Shawn marion fg, 3pt, inside scoring, rebound, blocking

Amare Stoudamire inside scoring (no one can stop him in the paint)

Boris Diaws FG should go down, its over rated. I think he has a FG 70 rating, it should be down to the 50s. He's not a reliable shooter, hes just a great defender.

I think Kobe's block should be greatly increased along with his stamina and hardiness since he is playing at least 43 mpg and at most 45. He is showing extraordinary capability of blocking shots.

Thanks guys, all noted.

Jeff McInnis' FG and 3pt should go up.

Kyle Korver, Stephen Jackson and larry hughes FG should go up.

Luke Jackson should be improved. Too slow in the game and can't dribble, needs to be improved. And also a good 3 pt shooter. I think you missunderstood me from my previous post about him.

James Jones can shoot. Should have better FG and 3pt ratings. Slow in the game, increase speed, quickness, dribble.

Rasheed Wallace's Inside Scoring should go down, I think he has a 91. It would of been fine if he was playin in Portland but he has a different role in Detroit.

Cato, jerome Williams, Sweetney, and Okafor has terrible FG ratings, should be improved.

My apologies, I did misunderstand your previous post about Luke Jackson. Thanks for the latest suggestions, all noted.

I look back and I made it sound confusing. My bad.

Luke Jacksons fg should stay at 67, just improve his 3pt, speed,quickness, and dribble.

Brian Cooks 3pt should be higher.

Shawn marion and Correy Magette's inside scoring needs to go up.

James Jones FG, 3pt speed, quickness, dribble

And also Jamal Crawford speed, quickness, dribble, jump should go up but decrese his passing, hes only average 4 assist this year.

No problem.

Larry Hughes - Change his attributes

Stealing - Currently leading the league
Dunking - He's not a fancy dunker, needs to have it decreased
3Pt Shooting - Increased

I think his overall should be 73 or 74.

I agree Larry Hughes should be change.

Higher his FG and steals but 3pt should remain the same or go down a little.

Stephen Jackson and Tinsley FG should be increase

Luscious harris should be updated.

Also increase Dwayne Wade Inside scoring. Dwayne Wade doesn't really shoot outside shots. Most are drives or near the perimeter. His assist also needs to go up.

hehe, as far as Wade is concerned... speed, quickness, dribble should be close to 99.(just look at Iverson's stats here) Overall rating should be 85-90. FG may need some tweaking though I admit I don't know much about his jumper.

Wade is scary how he is in 2005, as far as my fantasy league encounter with him. The starting five my CPU opponent had was Divac, Boozer, Prince, McGrady and Wade. Wade did some crazy shot adjustments near the basket, I probably would've lost the game had his stats been closer to what he is now.

As I mentioned before in my other post, Joe Johnson of the Suns is their best defender, yet the roster has him at a 37 for defensive awareness. He held LeBron James to 15 points when they put him on him the whole game. That was the 2nd time they played the Cavs. As someone else mentioned above, he's also the best 3 point shooter in the NBA this year as well.

please improve Eddie Griffin, he's really good this year:
FG% .435
3P% .430
PPG 11.4
MPG 23.4
Ranks #14 in the NBA in Three-Point Field-Goal Percentage(0.43)
Ranks #3 in the NBA in Three-Point Field Goals Per 48 Minutes(3.79)
Ranks #15 in the NBA in Offensive Rebounds Per 48 Minutes(5.1)
Ranks #15 in the NBA in Rebounds Per 48 Minutes(14.5)
Ranks #14 in the NBA in Efficiency Ranking Per 48 Minutes(29.23)
increase his speed and quickness to 60 something.
he is definitely not a 58 ovrl player but don't improve him too much we're only in the beginning of the season his stats will probably go down...

Improve Josh Smith's block rating. I think he has a rating of 6 which is very very underated for a guy who just had 10 blocks a few games back against dallas. Hes avaring 1.48 blocks which is very impressive for a guy whos only playing 18 min per game.

First of all thanks for your great work!

Here are my suggestions.

Maybe you can imporve the points per game average of the nba leading scorers because the numbers in the game are far to low. Especially Stoudemire, Iverson, Kobe and Nowitzki score not enough points.

Also I think the speed and quickness ratings of a lot of PG's are to low. For example Willie Green (76ers) have about 66 speed and 68 quickness that make him slower then many PF's in the roster.

The last thing is the defensive arwareness. Many players who are known for good defense have low values their. For example Trenton Hassel and Joe Johnson.

About Kobe, I don't think we can improve his scoring anymore, he already has a primacy of 99. But I do think his def rebounding needs to be tweaked. He's averaging 6.10 def rebs this year, which has improved a lot from last year (3.90), but his steals needs to be toned down a bit.

And maybe you could increase his stamina a bit. He's doing all the work on the court and still averages 43.3 MPG.

I don't think kobe's stealing should go down just because he's not averaging 2 spg like he used to. He's able to do that this season but he's not doing it as much because he's trying to fit into his new role of being a leader.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

I feel I have to make this post in light of the fact that most of the suggestions, including mine, ask for stat increases... this post will be on stat reductions.

I think some there are some FG ratings that should be decreased. The biggest one would be Shaq who gets the majority of his shots from 8-10ft and closer to the basket.

Many guards should have lower FG ratings. For instance, Damon Stoudamire is shooting an atrocious 34% and was benched just for that. Two years before, 40% and 38%. Bowen a 75 FG rating? That is close to Vince Carter.

I could list a lot of other players but I won't because there is another factor here and that is the difficulty of the shots taken. For instance, Shaq has an extremely high FG% but we wouldn't call him one of the greatest shooters. Even though his scoring range is limited I still don't think it should be that high.

On the other side of the coin, Bryant/McGrady might not shoot 50% but they take some very tough shots trying to shoulder the load for their teams. So it makes sense that in spite of their lower FG% their ratings should stay pretty high.

Any thoughts?

I don't think kobe's stealing should go down just because he's not averaging 2 spg like he used to. He's able to do that this season but he's not doing it as much because he's trying to fit into his new role of being a leader.

so, leaders don't steal?

Andrew: Please include Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing, David Robinson and Michael Jordan in the 90's team.

Adding Legends is one of the things I'm doing in this update, that's why I didn't release the patch as soon as I'd finished with the mass re-rating.
