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.

I haven't played either RNG or Princeton, so I don't know how it works in BB, but philosophically, the two tactics are polar opposites. In RNG you're going for high tempo, take the first shot. You're not even looking for a guy making a cut inside. Princeton is more methodical and requires very good passing. The ball is in constant motion looking for a cut or an open shot.

The Suns play a pick-and-roll style offense and to my knowledge there's nothing to mimic that in BB. Unless picks are already being set and we just don't read about it in the commentary.

100% agree. Although, if Base is too vanilla for you, Motion works as good if not better, for a team with poor skills. The more specialized tactics are for teams that clearly have a strength in that area. You wouldn't get too technical playing a pickup game with the neighborhood kids, and that's essentially what you start with in BB.
