duly noted - boring and beside the point

Which, statisticly, the game does.

actually this game does not behave at all like real life (real life is not a statistical simulation) it does not function at all like real life (real life is not subject to randomness - complexity yes, randomness not so much) and it's outputs are actually more variable than real life (by about 6% according to scuddy)- go play with sim match-up

However, as that isn't what you want we are never going to agree.

and if you post the same nonsense in here a third time I will redline you - you've had your say - quit repeating yourself

But you, however, would be wrong. I understand your point. You don't understand monkee's. At least, you act like you don't.

I understand it, I just don't agree with it,.

But, again, whatever. As you wish. YOu want to be 'right' without interruption, that is fine with me.,

Marshall with a usage of 19 takes 31 shots while playing with 3 guys with usage of 25 - why?

He didn't use a -3 defense by any chance?

I'm actually not too surprised by that game Monkee. 25 usage and 19 are not huge differences. If you had real big time scorers like Jordan, kobe, mchale, etc. as opposed to magic and marques johnson, then it would be surprising.

Plus, Marshall played 41 minutes while only 1 of the 3 25usage guys played more, so he was the primary or secondary option for a large amount of minutes.

I would think it meant that there were at least 2 guys with higher distros on the floor with him at all times - and at his IRL per minute average he should have taken 14 shots

I'm a big fan of the randomness from game to game. I think that the game does a good job of balancing out those things from beginning to end of the year.

What I did find interesting was that he never took more than 19 shots in any game that season (his career high was 26)... probably doesn't mean anything in the long run, and it has to hurt to have his 52% efg toss up brick after brick....

Does anyone else think that assists are way too high?

I've noticed the assists for a while now.. With this current version, average assists are near 30 per game while that used to be about the highest in a 42 mil league. Now, guys are averaging 33-35 per game, no problem. Offensively speaking, the sim has pretty much opened up D'antoni-style.

I don't think they are too high.
I know they're too high.
