HARDINESS :arrow: player's strength towards injuries; low hardiness, higher percentage of injuries

PRIMACY :arrow: it affects the players 'ballhogness'... nah mean....

Primacy i'd like to know too....

I always thought it means how much shots a player (cpu) will get but after tryin around (setting all ratings to 0 except of the star in the team who gets 99) i have no clue what that rating means.

Any info would be nice....

PRIMACY: It tells how much the player has the ball often....

ex. Ricky Davis has 94 PRIMACY, when u play him, he will get the ball more often than other players which have lower PRIMACY...

Thas why when u play the Lakers, Kobe always gets the ball instead of Shaq...

Mr. Bryant's got higher primacy than Shaq Daddy, can u feel me???

i also dont understand,u mean when we play lakers than kobe always have the ball?that rating is almost useless to human player i think,since although the rating is 99,it is up to us to pass whoever we want right?i think the cpu need it,o went u simulate ur game,i think

Are you sure ?

I gave the pacers´ anderson 0 , Miller about 20 , pollard about 10 , artest 50 and o'neal 99 .

What happened ?

Anderson still got the ball too often penetrated like hell and had by far the most shot attempts.
And that with correct set plays and without leavin anderson open ...

I have no clue what primacy affects.....

yea its supposed to dictate who gets the ball but the point guards sometimes don't like to follow the primacy rules........it works out better if you set the comp to use real plays

make indiana run motion 1, its not their real play but it gets the ball to the PF
