If Patient utilizes the best mismatch, maybe it's advantageous to play your best scorer out of position on offense (e.g. SG as PF or C). Has anybody seen this done? I'll try it on my PL this week.

I've been playing a lot of patient as part of training 3 players individually over the 3 games, each one getting 48 in a position and playing along with 4 scrub players. Looking back it does seem that the trainee has by far the highest usage, no matter the position (mostly PG or C for training).

(32851377) - Trainee, Hyytainen took 45 of 82 total shots (he's a SG, playing out of position at C)
(32851366) - Trainee Esene took 51 of 80 shots (he's a SF, playing at C in this game)

Interesting, I guess I could run this thru moutinho's tool and see the results.

I've done exactly that last season, playing my SG as C, and he was really overused. Actually, it didn't really work well on one of the games, but I'd say the usage of the mismatch is a clear fact.

Another example for SF in patient:
(32569405)

Same player as PF:
(29547716)

This makes me think it has to do with the team make up more than the position. But my player does not have skills that are much better than others on my team.

Heh, that's nothing, check out this one against my team: (29549094) Granted, he was a SG playing at C, but my guy defending him had 6 OD, so it wasn't a complete mismatch, but still, 18 threes from a C...
