'''Intelligence'''
 
'''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)

*If you don't know what to train, train defending. You can get away with only a few shooters taking the bulk of your team's shots, but everyone needs to play defense.

=[[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'''

=[[Defense]]=
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
