My player, year in and year out scored 30+ ppg, about 8 boards per game, had an AST% that hovered around 45-50%, always a STL % above 5 (unheard of to do in the real NBA) and as a point/2-guard mostly, drained 200+ 3's per season with a few 100+ block years on top of it. Obviously, no surprise, my yearly BPM's were always in the 20's(!!). It got me to thinking, obviously I was collecting data from a video game, but I had molded this player into a very versatile one. My question is what, exactly are the coorelations between BPM, Versatility Index and MVI ? My guess would be pretty high, right ?

I don't have the numbers in front of me, but yes, they are high. Higher than for any other boxscore metric, because only BPM actually has interaction terms in the regression.
