its for the pick up and play casuals, and young guns. why do it any other way!!
its a known fact that most sim ballers will take the time to edit certain players or download what they deem to be accurate rosters. and last time I checked there were more casual gamers than hard core sim players.
In addition with all the ratings adjustmenst folks tend to forget a key componenet to these ratings and that's consistency. Lin may have a higher rated jumper than say "Shooter B", but I would say that is safe to say that " shooter B" consistancy rating could be higher. meaning Shooter B, will eventually hit the jumper more often than Lin.
