This thread is for listing incorrect positions based on the downloadable file.  Refer to the thread  New Release - Player Review Phase 1 for full details.

NOTE: Please keep responses brief, in the format of: [Player] [Season] [Corrected Position].  It's more efficient if I don't have to sort through a bunch of discussion.  Feel free to start a new thread for discussion.  Thanks.

Scottie Pippen all of his seasons with the Bulls 87-88 to 97-98 should be 100% at SG.  And seasons 91-92, 92-93 and 96-97 should be 100% at PG

Don't have the line-up frequencies to verify it, but going from the memory of watching a lot of games, I would disagree that Pippen should ever be 100% at PG.  Just because he handled the ball most of the time does not mean he played PG.  There were always other guys on the court with him playing PG.  He could have, but he didn't. 

He covered opposing PGs fairly often.  As people have said before, it's a little annoying that offense and defense have the same "positions" in here.

 

This isn't a position effectiveness thread.

Yes, we're not discussing effectiveness yet, just listed position from the downloadable spreadsheet.

Listed positions are basically secondary to PE, so why even bother discussing listed positions?  This isn't a 2003/2004 version of the NBA sim, seble.

Oh how I wish it was.  Sometimes "bigger" (more complex) is not "better".

I completely agree

For c19 & all3:  According to seble, the listed position affects "other things" which I would assume PE is lumped into that category of  "other things."  Granted none of us necessarily care about listed position, but if it will help determine the outcome of PE then let it be. I think progress is being made here.

**Quote post by seble on 8/18/2010 1:16:00 PM:The new effectiveness is not ready yet.  For now just focus on the listed position because that does affect other things, so we want to be as accurate as possible.

Hey Seble are we going to get these position effectiveness stuff prior to the weekend?
