Oh, I thought you meant the game manual. I would say the plurality of shots would be attempted by the PF and C, but not the majority. There's certainly a much more equal shot distribution than with low post. It obviously depends on players' skills, but generally speaking.

At the same time you have already a "Low post" tactic that seems to fit what you are expecting for 'look inside'. You just have to understand that "look inside" does involve all the slashers (DR/IS) playing as PG/SG/SF, and yes they do look for an inside shot.

"Low post" and 'look inside" are inside tactics but do not behave the same way and not only on the speed aspect. There are a lot of subtleties to all tactics, and it's a long learning curve, longer than simply reading a game manual.

What you have to realise for "look inisde" is that if your inside players are far better thant your PG/SG/SF then they will shoot more than them. You may also find that the passing skill is involved in a good shoot distribution.I took the example of slashers, but it could have been a plain and simple pick'n roll that ends with a driving guard. In both cases it is far different from a"low post" play.

As an example for driving PGs, i had a few seasons back, two PGs exactly the same but one was at 5 IS no ID and the other at 5 ID but no IS. And that small number changed dramatically their way of playing. The one with 5 IS was really good at playing "look inside" in lower division, the other one was just a better defender but wasn't scoring the same way.

you have to acquire that kind of knowledge, and also discover what kind of tactics suits you.
