Regarding stats
what is offensive awareness?
whats the difference between quickness and speed?
whats hardiness?

I only can say that offensive awareness is how quick a player gets to the basket
(without the ball) when starting a fastbreak.

Offensive Awareness traditionally has been a rating to determine how good/intelligent a player is offensively. In terms of how it is applied in NBA Live 06, it factors in a player's scoring average during simulation and is also part of the criteria for Inside/Outside Scorer Freestyle Superstars.

The Speed rating traditionally refers to a player's footspeed, ie how fast they can sprint from point A to point B, while Quickness refers to a player's lateral quickness and ability to explode past defenders. Once again, their most noteworthy application in NBA Live 06 is that they're criteria for Freestyle Superstars abilities.

Hardiness is a rating that determines a player's likelihood of getting injured. The higher the rating, the less likely he is of suffering an injury.

So I was wrong

[Andrew]

Well, in theory players with higher offensive awareness should get themselves in the best position to score so it might factor into that. I haven't seen a great deal of difference when it comes to fastbreaks though.
