Well Crowder only shot 33% from 3, Iguodala only shot 35%, while Carroll shot 39%.

The league average was 35% from 3 last year, so even with a 7, you might be able to hit that average 3pt shooting ability due to right stick, skill, bronze badges, being hot, shot selection, etc.

Agreed, I wish it was more like a ladder system, with measures in place to prevent rigging the system.

This, don't take 5 poor shots from 3 make sure your shot selection is good and you can make 1-2 a game.

Maybe I was wrong using Sefolosha as the bad example since he's rated at 76 on st3, but what I meant is that all those players are rated in the high 70s (and Carroll has over 80 - I chose not to use Tony Allen as the bad example since he ended the year at a 78 rating) and I'm not sure a Lockdown SF can get to - let's say - 75 with only 7 bars.

And I don't wanna shoot 60% from 3, I'm ok with 35-ish in the grand scheme of things, as long as I can trust an open spot up 3... which - at least for me - required around 75 st3 in 2K16.

Would be interesting if we could actually play more than one season in college to improve draft stock.
