I asked on the main forums and was directed to a thread that had a response from Gary, the developer.

Athleticism does play a small role in playing aggressive defense but primarily is for press/trap options Outside shooting refers to both longer 2s and 3s Inside shooting is going to be shots inside the paint and short 2s outside Scoring is the player's ability to create shots - they might not be good shots but it is his ability to either get open to shoot or create for himself off the dribble

It implies in the description, but it's important to state flat out that players with a higher scoring rating are going to be the most aggressive in looking for their own shot.

Players who ruin seasons for you are those who have a high scoring rating and low FGI and FGJ ratings.

I use a 1-10 scale, if you have a player who has like a 2 in FGI and a 6 in FGJ(and those rating are accurate) with a 7 in scoring, and no one else on you team has a higher than 3 in scoring, then that player will probably take like 15-16 shots a game and shoot like 40 percent.

The type of offense you run plays a part too. You might have a Center and a SG who are both 5's for scoring but if the Center likes to spend 60% of his time in post, and you're running primarily a 5 out offense, then he's going to get a lot less shot opportunities than the SG who like to spent 40% of his time above the arc.

Also the more offensive freedom you allow your team, i.e., not running a set, the more likely that those high scoring players will just pull when they have the rock.
