Oh Greg Oden...

Haha but on topic, I went through and tested a few seasons with the Injury Frequency slider at 65 and Injury Severity at 5. While most injuries were minor (day-to day, 1-2 weeks, etc.), there were still WAY too many of them. At any point, there would always be 2 or 3 players injured PER TEAM, and this lasted throughout the season.

With Injury Frequency at 50 and Injury Severity at 5, there were far fewer injuries, and the same ratio of short-term injuries to long-term ones.

Unfortunatley, this means that Association mode is nearly unplayable with the Injury Frequency above 50. If anyone wants the effects of Injury Frequency at 65 in their played games, you'll have to change the slider 65 every time you are in a game, and then back to 50 when you sim.

Damn..

Thats not a bad idea! It isnt much work to change the injury slider before the game... I think I will play that way, thanks for bringing it up .

Great sliders! Can these be used with Shot Stick Timing? If so, can you tell me what to change?

I'm playing with shot stick timing too and my FG% are mostly in the low 50's. So I suggest to lower user consistency to 0 and maybe lower the shot success (all of them) 1 or 2 points.

No, its realism.

Curry and Bogut are twigs.

At the risk of speaking for the great man, for those who've already started associations/MP Nogster focused on increasing the shot tendency of bigs while reducing the shot tenencies of wings and guards

But, I think I have a remedy for this. I suggest tuning the Injury SEVERITY slider down to about 25 or even lower. This way in-game injuries will still be perfect, but they won't be long-lasting. The sim injuries will still be high, but the severity should be severely hindered. Let's face it, players get minor injuries ALL THE TIME in the NBA, but very rarely do they miss more than one or two games at a time. So lowering the Injury Severity slider should make result in that perfect medium we're searching for. Do you have any insight on this slider?

As a Nets Fan, I strongly disagree. Look at the numbers of games players missed for us last year and it's way more than 1 or 2 games, lol.

On average, I'd say most players miss at least between 1-8 games and then you'll have your players where they don't miss any games.
