I'm not sure if this is just a coincidence, but it might be a result of Pace guessing. Is it possible Pace guess helps you in offense? I don't know, but look up these facts:

(66277356)
30k C hits 16 of 22 shots against 63k C. Both at respectable game shape.

(27327)
A 210k PF hits 16 of 21 shots against equally good PFs, one at GS 7 and the other at GS 9. England's PF was at respectable game shape. Both England's centers combine for 11-16 shooting and SF has a 7-10 night.

Patient against mediocre OD (8 in this case) works great, but 11-15 on threes by a SG with Strong-low game shape? Never seen something like that.

(66277331)
His PG is good, but 7-14 shooting against OD 19 with R&G tactic?

Like I mentioned above, these might be a coincidence, but I'll be looking into it a bit more as the season progresses. If anyone notices the same, don't hesitate to post it here!

It just seems like its some deviation. Sometimes my players just cant make a bucket no matter what, if i quess gdp or not, sometimes or atleast one player every game shoot out the lights, sometimes my 9is guy scores 17/27 playing li, sometimes my 14 11 js jr guy scores 3/21 playing run a nd gun. its just some deviation, nothing more i think. But by quessing pace i noticed my attacks became way longer than used to be if oponent quesses my pace right. Usually since my passing is extremely high, usualy lineup looks like 14 14 10 11 15 i get done attack in 8-10 secs. But when oponent guesses pace nearly every shot becomes nearly or the very last second like 20-24 sec. This is what iv noticed.

I'll apologize in advance for neglecting to include any accent/special characters but I'm typing notes into notepad and then recreating here, so I'm just using the letters on my keyboard.

Look at the PBP though. The C was 11/13 on assisted shots, 4/4 against Torti, and 1-4 against Zale (though three shooting fouls were drawn).

He was 11/13 on assisted shots, 1/1 vs. Vidoivic, 1/3 vs. Smit and 2/4 vs. Navrsnik.

He went 8/11 behind the arc against Sobar, though, who appears to be a 40k C type who I imagine has very little OD compared to the JS/JR of the shooter (who also went 3-3 on open threes, and missed the one he took against Kosorok).

This one's a little odd. He's only 2-5 when open, but 5-9 against the player's whose name I mangled so badly I'm not going to bother trying to type - the guard playing C on offense. ;) He also drew three fouls, for what it's worth.

Anyhow, the last one seems a little strange but not too extreme - I'd expect that you could expect one or two of the missed open shots should have been made and one or two of the contested made shots to be missed, but that balances out. The other games are all explainable by open shots for the Cs and having a C guarding an outside shooter for the three point display.

Not sure if this is the most recent general GDP thread, but has there been any discussion as to whether GDP is here to stay? I'd be really disappointed if it is.

Just realise that enthusiasm is more important than GDP feature ... (69468455)

I used push-the-ball as I hope my team to focus on PG/SG to shoot as many shots as possible. But still lost the game by 13 points.

Or should I use another offense strategy instead?

Or he is a awful lot better than you.

Or he is a awful lot better than you.

I know ...

Based on the salary, his players are much better than my trainees. However, my players have better game shapes than his players + GDP features ...

You are right.

You should have beat him.

P.S. he has HCA[ which isn't a big difference, but still makes a tiny difference].
