 '''Intelligence'''
-The first of the complimentary skills. Intelligent players make better shooting (may shoot less when having an off night, and more when shooting well) and passing decisions (more assists, less turnovers). There are theories that it also enhances rebounding and helps with zone defense. Is apparently the skill that determines whether a player inbounding the ball calls a timeout before receiving a 5 second violation. Has the most impact at PG and also SF (as they are the only player to inbound the ball)

 The second complimentary skill. Athleticism will enhance shooting, defending and rebounding. It is also attributed by some coaches to drawing more fouls and conceding fewer fouls.

+=[[Substitution Patterns]]=
-Substitution patterns are normally described by stating the starter's "sub out" (aka sub) setting and then the backup player's "sub out" setting. For example if your starting PG was set to sub norm and your bPG was set to sub more, the substitution pattern (aka setting) would be norm/more.

-Stamina is a hidden attribute that is not tied to any of the other attributes. If your team keeps hitting a brick wall in the last 10 minutes consider giving your bench more minutes. You might want to think about training stamina too, but that's a long term fix

-'''Recommendations'''
-*Don't run a starter on Sub Less all season
-**More likely to fatigue and get an injury
-**This might be viable if you can afford to rest the player in easier matches
-*Run more than one substitution pattern
-**This should make it less likely that your entire bench will be in the game at the same time
-**I normally mix More/More and Norm/Norm
-*If you have a particularly weak player consider subbing him out more
-*Some players have lower stamina and your team may benefit by giving them less minutes
-**You will have to watch games closely to try and work this out
-*If your team is deep at 1 or more positions (or you've got 6 players you want to start) run More/Norm or More/Less at that position.

+'''Shooting'''
 The word rating shown will be the average ability of the player's 2FG, 3FG and FT shooting capabilities. It is definitely worth having a look at a player's percentages from each range as some "good" shooters might be an ace FT shooter, but average elsewhere. Conversely a "fair" shooting big man might be a dreadful three point shooter, but a great inside scorer.

 Training makes only a very small difference over the course of a player's career. It is not unusual to see only 1 player (or even no players) improve the word rating of an attribute one level every 3 or 4 season.
