It seems like they decreased the amount of turnovers for slow spaced offenses and increased them for fast paced offenses.


In fact, the only change was to fast paced offenses, the way I read it.

So this would not cause you to change tactics at all? Some people still think fast paced is king. How do you counter that?

From the rules/tactics
Full Court Press: Significant increase in created turnovers at the expense of stamina, defense, and rebounding. Very high pace.

Full court press is IMO highly efficient in creating turnovers versus a player with atrocius handling and pitiful passing skills. Cesare Invernizi (C) is a nice example in the following games. Of course, I based this only on a single player, but still. All games date after introducing the changes in the GE

17 TO: (8141117)
19 TO: (8608537)
12 TO: (8406813)

Before the changes I have not observed this many TO.

6 TO: (4148765)
1 TO: (4001472)

I already replaced him :P, otherwise I would have never mentioned this.....

looking forward to our next clash :P Are there any others having this many TO for a player with atrocious handling and/or passing? please BB-mail me (I understand that you don't want to post it, if you still own a player with these stats :P) It would be nice to get a bit of understanding on creating TO

That's incredibly stupid, especially since its such a burden to train pf/centers in that skill.

I train "one on one" for forwards and handeling improves nicely.
Passing is more of a problem since you have to position them as guards

One player of mine has respectable handling and awful passing and had 8 TOs in 31 minutes against FCP. Except for this one, his totals are 1 TO in 74 minutes. And my next opponent plays FCP as well((

Edit: Another guy with respectable handling and atrocious passing had 3 TOs in the same game, playing 23 minutes. Another one with respectable handling and awful passing had only 1 TO in 35 minutes! And the last one with both skills respectable had too 1 TO in 38 minutes.

With al due respect, the ratings of your contenders' defensive skills aren't that high they will take a lot of interceptions anyway.
