-Ca soulève le problème des postes à savoir qu'un bon AR par exemple à besoin de 6 caracs fortes (JS/PS/Passe/Dribble/Agilité/Déf ext) alors qu'un pivot n'à besoin que de 3 (SI/DI/Rebonds). Du coup on peut penser qu'un extérieur ne sera jamais aussi fort qu'un P mais il faut aussi penser que les intérieurs ont des salaires plus lourds, du coup il semblerait logique que ceci compense cela

a large point that is missing from this discussion is that ratings are relative things...

so if you are training a guard in 5 areas, versus a center in 3 .. or whatever the difference, i'll agree the guard is going to have lower skills... but you can't compaire strong passing to strong inside shot.. because strong passing is compared against strong outside defense.. etc etc.

just because a center's absolute skill level is higher doesn't mean he will play better.. because playing better means matching up favorably against your opponent, and if your opponents average center also has higher ratings than its not really "higher" in terms of performance.

I think this is a good thing, because its a way for intelligent an observant players to take advantage of mistakes that less observant players might make. An observant player will note that guards on average have to have lower skills and thus will normalize their value correctly. In the end that sort of calculation is what the game is about... looking at options in terms of personnel moves, and having some model in your head about how those potential moves are going to affect your team. Those people with better model's are gonna do better.

The game should also be enjoyable on a much lower less sophisticated level, and we hope to strike a balance that lets that happen.. but it seems those most vocal in this thread are thinking about the more in depth issues.
