    Datome: N/A
    Drummond: Hustle Points/Scrapper/Tenacious Rebounder/Eraser
    Harrelson: N/A
    Jerebko: N/A
    Jennings: P&R Maestro/Pick pocket/Microwave
    Mitchell: Highlight Film
    Monroe: Active Hands/Post playmaker/Hustle Points
    Singler: Corner Specialist
    Siva: N/A
    Smith: Posterizer/Lockdown Defender
    Stuckey: Finisher
    Villanueva: Microwave/Spot up shooter
    Um. No to Drummond having 4 sig skills after playing limited minutes in a rookie season. Give him Eraser. Maybe Scrapper.

    And heck no to Billups having Closer. He's pretty much done.

    Warriors:

    Stephen Curry: Heat Retention, Shot Creator, Catch and Shoot (Spot Up Shooter). Not sure whether to give him Fancy Passer since he turns them over sometimes. It should be in his tendency though. Depends on who else gets Fancy Passer. Maybe Pick Pocket from last year but don't feel like he really needs it. Maybe Cornerman-- he shoots 60+% from there.

    Klay Thompson: Catch and Shoot (I don't think he deserves Deadeye anymore.), maybe Microwave instead, but with a lowered consistency.

    David Lee: Hustle Points, Post Playmaker, Pick and Roll Screener, maybe Finisher and Post Proficiency from last year-- I'm not a fan of him getting this when Post Proficiency includes improved effectiveness of pump fakes. Lee hardly pumps but scores well inside with flip shots and hooks. Maybe just pump up his inside and hook shot ratings.

    Andre Iguodala: Lockdown Defender, Interceptor, Posterizer, maybe Finisher

    Harrison Barnes: Posterizer

    Andrew Bogut: Eraser, Defensive Anchor, Post Playmaker. Charge Card if he's fully healthy and back to drawing charges. Brick Wall. I know that's a lot of sig skills but Bogut is that good with all the little things he does when healthy.

    Draymond Green: Scrapper

    Kent Bazermore: Nothing. Maybe Chasedown Blocks.

    Nedovic: Maybe Finsher or Acrobat. He is after all, the European Derrick Rose, but he's probably more a Dragic.

    Toney Douglas: Nothing, maybe one of the Steal Skills.

    Jermaine O'neal: Nothing

    Marrese Speights: Nothing

    Ognjen Kuzmic: Nothing (as far as I know)

    Festus Ezeli: Nothing. MAYBE Eraser. I mean if Ekpe Udoh has it. He did set block records for Vanderbilt.

    Seth Curry: Catch and Shoot, Cornerman.

      Re: The "I Think this Player Deserves this Sig Skill" Thread

      Billups: N/A - I wouldn't give him anything until seeing where his health is at. I think there's potential for Floor General though.

      Bynum: Alley-ooper, Pick & Roll Maestro. He's really good at exploding off screens...and if you stop him, he's probably gonna kill you with a lob. I wouldn't give him Ankle Breaker though. He has elite handles, but he hasn't claimed many ankles yet.

      Caldwell-Pope: N/A - Gotta see him in action first

      Datome: N/A - Ditto

      Drummond: Tenacious Rebounder, Screen Outlet, Interceptor. He's a hustle player, but I don't think he fits the Hustle Points skill. That's for players who bring the ball down, whereas Drummond is more of a tip-in guy. I also don't think the Eraser skill fits. He does have some cool blocks under his belt, but he's not really an intense shotblocker. And I don't think Scrapper fits, now that it's been separated from rebounding. I'd rather see his steals and pick & roll scoring get some attention. Gave him Tenacious Rebounder, since he was Top 5 in Reb% last season (min. 15 games). Top 3, if you take away Love & Varejao.

      Harrellson: N/A

      Jerebko: Scrapper. I think it suit him, now that the rebounding aspect is gone.

      Jennings: Interceptor. He likes coming off picks, but the ball is actually supposed to go in. Had to take away Microwave too. He's had some epic outbursts, but "only needs a couple shots to get it going" is probably the last way to describe Jennings.

      Mitchell: N/A - I can't bring myself give a 2nd round pick a signature skill without playing first. But there might be some potential for Highlight Film and Eraser

      Monroe: Active Hands, Post Playmaker, Hustle Points, Finisher. Same as 2K13. He doesn't have the greatest percentage inside, but he fits the Finisher description of fighting through contact.

      Singler: N/A - He's good from the corner (37%), but 2K seems to favor guys in the 44%'ish range for Corner Specialist

      Siva: N/A

      Smith: Posterizer, Eraser, Chasedown Artist. Same skills as 2K13, minus Active Hands. I need to see him at the 3 first.

      Stuckey: Finisher, Shot Creator, Ankle Breaker, One Man Fast Break. He had Finisher & Shot Creator in 2K13. He's not a flashy ballhandler, but he breaks quite a few ankles. He's also really good at pushing the ball coast-to-coast. This might seem like too many skills for a role player, but there really aren't many players who can get to the rim like him. Unless he's given bogus ratings instead, I think he needs these skills.

      Villanueva: Microwave, Screen Outlet. He can put up points fast, and often on pick & pop threes. If nothing else, Villanueva is a unique player. I think he needs sig skills to convey it.

          Kawai Leonard needs to have lockdown defender. He is definitely one of the best one on one defenders in the nba. Just ask Lebron lol.

              Curry probably doesn't deserve Pick and Roll Maestro yet. He shoots well from the screen (he shoots well period), but he's *just* starting to execute the Pick and Roll regularly. He wasn't very good with his timing the seasons before.

                    He needs tenacious rebounder too.

                      Ray Felton should also have pick and roll maestro to me. and Tyson chandler or amare could have screen outlet.

                        some of these guys being named for Pick & Roll Maestro (ie. Lin) would be better off with Dimer. they don't deserve boosts to their own scoring

                          You would run a pick and pop for Tyson?

                            Exactly. Wait a minute! You have Will Bynum as pick and roll maestro.
