Hey, guys! Just wanted to give you some info on a retro update I've been working on for a few days. Sko wanted me to make a Youtube video showing what I'm doing but I'm too lazy. Here's the breakdown.
1. I calculated the average shot location percentages for each position from 2001 to 2019. (These are the years that basketball-reference.com has those stats.)
2. I made a spreadsheet that calculates what those percentages were in 1990-2000 rosters. I haven't done pre-1990 rosters yet.
3. I have went through all players and edited their shot location tendencies to ensure that this data is more accurate.
4. I will edit shot location ratings and play types next.
This will lead to pretty major improvements in gameplay. Big men will shoot more mid range shots (and be better at them), guards will drive less and pull up/kick out more, and there will be more noticeable differences when using rosters from different eras.

- Every art file (jerseys, arenas, cyberfaces, accessories, courts, dornas (advertisement at half court), etc is realistic and none will crash game play
- There is no missing art file in the entire project
Every player in every roster has:
- Accurate statistical ratings and tendencies to work with 2k's simulation engine while still providing realistic game play
- Realistic ratings and tendencies that affect game play but not the simulation engine ie dribbling, athletic ratings, post tendencies, etc.
- Realistic physical attributes that decrease after major injuries or as the player gets older
- Accurate play types
- Accurate contracts
- Accurately updated Coaching profiles and playbooks
- Draft classes that have realistic player information for every player
- A few slider sets designed to be a base for realistic game play
