Marion and Ginobili

[Jeff_Hornacek]

Dear roster man,

You may see Marion playing PF all year long due to an injured amare or K.Thomas, but his natural position is clearly SF to me. That should not be changed just because he has started at the PF position.

I would agree that Robert Horry has turned to a PF at this point of his career, but I strongly disagree that marion has got to that point.

Snooping in the players.dbf file I´ve found that Ginobili BODYTYPE value is set to 1. I think it should be changed to 0 because he is very skinny just like Brent Barry. By the way, barry´s bodytype is set to 0.

That´s all. Thanks for the awesome roster all these past years.

Sorry for the bad english.

No. Because of the way the game automatically re-orders the rosters, some natural positions have to be changed to counteract that and Marion is a fine example.

I'll consider changing Ginobili's BODYTYPE.

and by the way i thing J-Rich 3 point is over rated ... 82 .... omg raja bell and leandro barbosa shooting 3 better than rich but their ratings are less than 80
ok this my point of view , that marion filed goals rating must be about 80-81 .... he scoring more than 0.5 % filed goals this season and this is a fact !

No. I'm not raising Marion's field goal rating, his scoring average is fine and his high percentage is not due to being a tremendous jump shooter but rather his stellar ability to get to the hoop and throw it down. I will not be making that change. Sorry.

FG% isnt entirely based on your shooting abilities. Marion has a high fg% not because hes good at shooting but because he rarely has to create his own scoring oppertunities and feeds off of putbacks and ally oops, and he will hit occasional open 3's.
