Me too.

(36141649)

Opponent PPS beat me by 40 across all positions.

So what's the deal, you play your best guard at C and you can win every game?

Additionally the PG should better be not a good perimeter shooter. then he will take the shots regardless of how many SGs you play at the 5.
Had to learn that last season. If anyone wants to link it, it's from last season. Butter I'm online with a mobile phone and that's too much work searching for that.
But it's an important element for Patient.

I love it...I win a lot of games with it against teams that should beat me. I keeps the other offense flow down I think.

my opponent use patient and man2man i countered him with run and gun or any offense that fits you and then in defensive end i use outside isolation... it works because his best player are otside shooters...

Dear all

I had a game on saturday and played patient (36412426). We both played our B-Teams because of the cup.

I played patient on saturday because of following reasons:

- I knew, that my B-Team ist more balanced than his, but he probably will throw a high salary player into the game. I didnt know what position the high salary player will play
- He will probably be stronger by ratings than my team, because of the star player and home advantage
- I only play with 5 player and one guy can easily foul out (against a high salary player) and they need a lot of stamina if they are only 5 (lower stamina use with patient)
- My PG has a lot of passing
- The oppoents team wil have some weak spots, so i want to use them

So what happened:

- My PG and PF scored 83% of the points, the engine looked for the weak points of my opponent so my players were playing Isolation-Plays
- My SF (defending as C) fouled out after 14min!! against the star player of my opponent. A Lucky Fan came into the game, what didnt harm the offense because of the isolation plays
- My opponents guards werent able to bring the ball to the star player, who took only around 20 shots, even though he played 34min! against a Lucky Fan
- My team won the close game

Best regards,

sgt

I'm playing against a far superior team in the cup on the road so I'm done. Let's see what this offense can do :)

My failed experiment:

Of course the defense tactic was set all wrong, the other team was stronger overall, but the patient offense didn't help, AT ALL!

my 122$ kk PG took most of the shots

PG N. Shuowei 2 - 31 0 - 16

And I can assure you he has very high JS and JR and had proficient game shape.

So yeah, overall use Patient only when you are extremely desperate or extremely sure you would win the match.

Your team is nowhere as good as his. His defense was 3 full levels above your offense. Additionally, your offensive flow is your weak spot -- not good for an offense that requires a lot of passing. Overall, it's amazing you scored 50 points!

You recommend using Patient "when you are extremely desperate". I'd say this match up falls into that category.
