I will choose to play Run N Gun when I'm more confident in my rebounding advantage with my big guys over their big guys because of the pace of RNG vs Motion. I want to give myself more chances to get offensive rebounds and gain a big edge in shots attempted.

I can give you many examples that high JR actually is a problem and not an asset. What example can you give me for the opposite?

The game unfortunately doesnt work as in real like that a great 3pt shooter will open the lane for the slashers...and as i said the higher skill you get, the less gain you have. I have around 850k to spend for salaries. I have to make sacrifices. Find me a better option for them.

RNG then is the worse offense in the game for offensive rebounds according to Coach Parrot matchup ratings, followed by Motion. Run and gun is all about the guards rushing down the court and jacking up a shot before your big men can get in position to rebound. You still might get some offensive rebounds if your big men are really good at it, but you'd get significantly more in any other offense. Princeton would be a better choice, especially if your big men have a decent jump shot.


Ah, interesting I knew that in a real RNG caused fewer offensive boards but I didn't realize that the game engine accounted for it. Looking back now it makes sense in a couple of the games that I've used RNG. On a semi-related note, I;m playing a team that always uses FCP next week and was planning on using Motion (my outside scorers should still be better equipped to score than my big guys) but now I think I'll run a Princeton to get a little inside scoring but a lot of offensive rebounding.

I've started looking for a new PG for the stretch run in IV and hopefully to use in III and I'm including a max JR. I've never used max skill in any other transfer search. Every time I see a good player that's seems like he's way underpriced it's because he's only a 7/8/9 in JR.

I never said that JR is useless...I said that more than 13 is a luxury that i cant afford...

When you want to play inside tactics a player with very high JR will get (and miss) lots of 3pt, and on that case actually its a problem...

I totally agree, a JR skill that gets too high will cause a lot more problems than it would help your team.

JR more than 13 for me is a luxury that personally i cant afford.


I know most managers have a love affair with OD but in many situations a guard with high JR would be the better choice, especially if the player had good passing skills as well.


Why are you emphasising the passing skills - would you elaborate on this? What would the top guard in a outside-constructed team in a level I league look like?
