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

Robert Sacre - Clown Cheerleader Skill

Also, I'd think about giving Bosh Antifreeze. His spot up J is pretty darned consistent (though you wouldn't think that last night). If guys like Scola and ZBo can have AF, CB should at least be considered for it.

He severely limits their offense, plus he was injured for the first handful of games of the season, so his minutes per game aren't great.

But saying Miami is one of the worst defensive teams in the league with him not on the floor is a stretch. You're underrating Bosh's defensive ability and overrating Anthony's. There's a reason as to why he has reduced minutes this year. Rashard should NOT receive spot-up shooter. Just because that's all he is in this part of his career does not mean he's one of the best spot-up guys. He is shooting well this year, but I wouldn't give him the skill because of his troubles the past few years, and he already has a pretty good 3 point shot on the game.

Looked at the data and you're correct about Battier, Allen and Lewis. Battier, most of the time (he goes on streaks at times), hits his 3's from the corners. Allen did already have Deadeye and somehow I missed it, and Lewis hasn't had a large enough of a sample-size to deserve the spot-up shooter signature skill.

In regards to Anthony, when I did post this, that actually was the case; their defensive efficiency was in the bottom 10 when Anthony wasn't playing double-digit minutes, and in the top 10 when he did play double-digit minutes. Hard to believe that's a coincidence to me. Might be a moot point though as their defense has improved in the last several weeks, but he is still most definitely, IMO, their defensive anchor as when he's out there, it still noticeably improves their defense and allows them to constantly blitz pick-and-roll's, force turnovers, and get out in transition. The definition of this signature skill is making teammates better on defense and this applies perfectly to Joel Anthony. Also, his minutes aren't really that reduced; nobody really paid attention to this but he was injured for the first 2-3 weeks of the season and as such he only sparingly played. Regardless, he's never going to get a ton of minutes because he hurts the offense, despite how great he is on the defensive end of the floor.

He certainly has come a long way, thanks to Riley, Spolestra, and the rest of the Heat coaches devoting a ton of time to developing his game. Now if only he had at least somewhat of an offensive game, lol.

I completely agree with this, he should have been one of the main reasons to add this signature skill.

While his last two games have been poor efficiency-wise, I agree with you; on the norm, he's a heck of a shooter from mid-range and almost never falters.

No.

I saw your post on the Roster Update, and this is one of the silliest suggestions I've seen on here.
