My theory is this-
JS, IS and PA affect shot selection. THe more IS the more inside shots attempted. The more PA the less bad shots taken. The more JS the more bad shots taken (since outside shots are usually bad shots in this GE ;))


From pure observation (no hard data) JR also alters shot selection. If a player has high JR, he will try for more long-range shots and since OD is universally overtrained, he will fail most of the time. If a player has low JR though, he will try for more midrange shots and be also more successful. If you play Motion with a PG that has low JR, but high JS and DR, he will mostly drive and shoot midrange shots. If you put a JR monster on same spot, he will mostly shoot from distance. It's also worth noting SG spot will almost always take more longrange shots than PG or SF.

IS is important for SG's and PG's, i know some managers might disagree. It really depends on what type of offense you usually play with, having high JS and JR can be very useful for 2-3 types of offense (figure it out). So my best answer is YES it is important and NO if you purely want to have an outside focus, hope that helps.

Right. I didn't see it yet (I mean C), but I have a lot less games under my belt than you.

I forgot a thing about JR from my previous posts: because high JR guys take more midrange shots and generally fail because of high OD, then we view high JR skill as useless. Well it's not useless per se, but it's useless in a sea of OD 20. I also feel Handling is being trained way too low, since HA helps quite a lot to make a successful shot. Great passing helps too with the quality of shot and we know that's being undertrained also. But on other hand, since OD shuts down JS, JR, HA and PA to some extent...you really can't compete against it, right? High-end guards take a ton of time to train and then a ton of money to maintain...then a 20 OD guy comes along and just shuts down 6-7 seasons of work.

but he takes the longrange shot, cause he had the same chanche to convert then a player with less JR from a closer distance(the shot this player takes instead), so it is ok again.

And yes offensiv better player, will take more shot so the same player will maybe even take those shot extra but in general the team can be more selective in their shot cause they got promising looks more easy and often. So JR is definately no disadvantage.
