Guys with 15 and 50 PER shooting 35 and 39% from 3 Topic

Exactly.....If your argument was for a game of one on one then you have a point, otherwise the formula of a + s + per should equate to a certain fg% is flawed as it is a team game with 80% of what happens in the game never revealed to us.  IQ's, position of the players on the fast break etc has just as much efect on the fg% as anything.

Conversely, the IQ's, ratings of the defensive players, and THEIR positioning also have an effect on the FG %.  Mully, I think all things considered, your opponent shot better than he should have, but.....I've seen a WHOLE lot worse examples than this.  Just be glad that the Sim didn't get REALLY out of control and hand you guys an L to go along with it!  :^)

I haven't seen anyone state this in this thread, but isn't PER for anything outside of the lane?  So, a big man that shoots 35% from 3, might be missing quite a bit of other shots outside of the lane.
