You won't find that as an accurate representation of how LI will play. That team was abhorrent, so of course you will get what you want after time down the court, but when facing a quality, zoning opponent, the bigs will receive at the top of the key and either shoot, pass or drive. If you get good passes you can get layups, but those are fewer than the amount of turnarounds, post shots and jumpshots from 5 or so feet when facing a tough defense.

That's a helpful example - it does look like this is a very inside oriented tactic - from that game and others I've looked at, teams are only shooting 3s when getting crowded out by the defence inside. So this seems more like the Laker offence.

How about a more balanced 3 point shooting + inside scoring tactic? Should I be looking at Princeton? Any further inputs welcome.

Push the Ball, Base Offense and Patient are balanced offenses.

I just realised...Run and Gun must be the 3 point shooting offence. But I dunno if that offence includes drive and kick out or is just pass and shoot.

What about playing like the Magic or Suns - can it be done?


Not until you get much better players. I looked at your team ratings for your last game and you have a crappy team. Even though you are England DIII, the comparable teams in my USA D V are putting up better ratings. In essence, you are much closer to the bottom than the top in terms of quality.

I say this not to be harsh, but to be realistic. If you want to play like a top NBA you need to develop and acquire better players.

Until then, keep it simple. You have a balanced attack (INEPT low in both) so play base offense and let the game engine look for your opponent's weaknesses.Play the defense that could thwart your opponent's preferred attack. Otherwise, stick to MtM.

Don't get fancy until you beef up the quality of your players. Decide on a training scheme, then pick an offense that will eventually work with that scheme.

I didn't say I wanted my team to start playing like the Magic or Suns. I just wanted to know from the more experienced players here if it could be done with this game's engine.
