With rim protector you will alter the layup/floater forcing to miss even without blocking the shot

Some good combinations can be made with this list.

I agree about the rim protector badge. I think some people are very good at altering shots without neccesarily getting the block and I would have liked to see that represented.
I would also have liked to see an "intimidator" badge which would lower the opponents tendency to drive against such a player, both in the set offense and in the open court (fast breaks etc.)
Because a lot of what these so called rim protector\anchors do is mental. Opponents are less likely to even attempt to drive inside vs. a Dwight\Hibbert\Chandler\Marc or Dikembe type of guy, but also some other "scary" defenders (Artest in his glory days, or Rodman both come to mind, even devoid of elite shot blocking skills).

What's cool about this type of badge is that it would alter more than just shot %, but also the "decision making" of AI players.

You like?

Sounds like a bandaid for the longstanding problem of your AI controlled teammates offensive awareness/IQ virtually disappearing while your MyPlayer is on the court. I hope the AI has been tweaked in this respect so I don't have to lean on this particular badge. But I see how it could ease frustration.

And it is very frustrating when my star teammate keeps passing me the ball back like it's a hot potato instead of being aggressive or taking the shot I set up for him (I play point). Yet when I watch from the bench everyone remembers how to play.

Perhaps "Eraser" could work as the expected Rim Protector badge...

Cheers! ;-)

Dirk should have it as well (in my opinion).

Eraser creates rhythm boosts on blocked shots.

Rim Protector changes shots inside even without actually resulting in a block. It's the intimidation factor and ability to bother shots outside of spiking shots into the third row.
