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

[fc155]

Hello people, I'm sorry if a similar thread has been made, if there has, may I request the moderators to merge it with a current one. Since I have tried looking for one all to no avail, I guess it was time for me to make one.

So basically, the title is pretty much clear. Here are some examples:

Gordon Hayward - Chasedown Artist.
Evan Turner - Interceptor and at the rate he's going, Corner specialist too.
Jrue Holiday - Dimer
Kevin Durant - Heat retention but what should be replaced?

I'll post more soon and hope you guys could suggest too.

Not a sig skill, but how about higher on ball D on Hayward and really Redick too, and lower on Nash, unless they dropped in to below 70 and I wasn't paying attention (love Nash, but not for D).

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

Carmelo Anthony- Microwave/ Heat retention or Hustle Points(a beast off his own rebounds)
Jr Smith- Highlight film
Tyson chandler- Brick wall( ask lebron)

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

Rudy Gay - Highlight sig skill only.

2k giving him anti freeze had me scratching my head from day 1. He's one of the most inconsistent players in the league.

Holiday- Shot creator
Asik- Defensive Anchor
Harden- Closer
Pierce- Heat retention (can't remember if he has it or not)

We're calling Batum a lockdown defender now? Really? Also, since when is he a point forward. Evan Turner and Lebron get to say they are because they are well known for seeing the entire field and passing it to their teammates. Batum is well... not.

Leonard might deserve an increase, but there is no way those changes keep him at 63 overall. They would almost certainly make him better than Drummond, and he is far short of that. Leonard is a raw center with minimal offensive game. Stop treating him like he is an above average role player.

1st: Batum is routinely matched up against the other teams best player (usually point guard) and does an excellent job defending the 1-4.

2nd: Batum is 2nd in the NBA in assists for forwards (only behind LeBron) and as of the past three weeks taken the ball at the top of the key and initiated the offense.

3rd: I assure those changes equate to Leonard being a 63 OVR because I made them myself before I even posted the overall change. Am I saying Leonard is AMAZING? No... but these changes do reflect that the man has shown the ability to play in this league (something his current ratings do not do).




Anything else you'd care to not do research on and cry about?

I was going to start a thread about a couple players, but this seems like a better idea.

Holiday already has dimer. Got it a couple weeks ago.

I guess you could give Evan Turner corner specialist if you knock down his 3 point rating. Looking back that's probably how they should have done it. He has to get the Scrapper sig though. I think this is a must. Statistically, he is one of the best, if not the best, rebounding guards of all-time!!! They also need to give him the ability to push the ball after a rebound (I forget what its called). He almost always pushes the ball after a rebound, not to mention he plays the point sometimes.

Even though I haven't seen it work, I would give Thaddeus Young the Charge Card sig skill.

I feel like Lavoy Allen needs Bruiser to give him some sort of presence on the defensive end.

If I had to take something away, I think Nick Young has corner specialist. Haven't seen him hit too many corner 3s this season.

1. I can say anyone is a good defender. Just because someone defends a position doesn't mean they defend it well. Regardless, I agree he is a good defender, not a lockdown defender.

2. Stats by themselves do not reflect anything, particularly when a player averages 4.4 assists to 2.7 turnovers. That is a player who should be recognized as a player capable of running an offense?

3. I will admit I was wrong. 63 overall is reasonable for Leonard. I just assumed offensive awareness jacked up overall. It certainly does for point guards.

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

Gordon Hayward - Chasedown Artist
Derrick Favors - Eraser

Also, I'd like an increase in Hayward's speed, quickness, on-ball defense, and finishing ability. Maybe knock his 3 point shot down a few numbers, as he's a bit of a streaky shooter. He has to have Chasedown Artist though for sure. The dude gets as much, if not more, chasedown blocks than the precious LeBron James...
