To start off, atleast some decent guards. Jump shot is essential in this offensive tactic. Its a medium/fast speed. If your PG has good passing, that would make this tactic more officient. Doesnt need to be super great. Atleast decent enough to get a good assist off.

It's not a medium/fast speed -- it's the slowest tactic in the BB playbook.

The PG guard having Passing makes just about any tactic more efficient (but it makes inside tactics "more more" efficient). Princeton is an outside tactic.

Just as in any outside tactic, most players should have decent JS and JR. Those who don't should have at least some passing.
Since this is a slow tactic that will look for better shots (which means more passes), you will generally benefit more from having a high offensive flow.

It is an outside offense that is slow and takes predominately more 3 point shots than 2 point shots - so if you have great 3 point shooters and good inside big men you might pull off a win.

from the game i watched today where heat gave them a good flogging yes, yes it is lol.

princeton needs the 1,2,3,4 spots to be able to hit the 3 , with solid rebounding and inside game on 5.
2,3,4 spots also need inside game aswell as good driving skills.
as in all tactics all players need good passing.

not too much 3 points...i bet my money for JS than JR for Princeton!

and i think a good PF with passing and JS is important too!

2,3 and 4 the most important with players with JS ...second comes JR

i insist that a very good PF will help much

PS : sorry my bad english!

princeton is a 3pt shot or inside shot tactic, with very small amount of shots coming from mid range. so there will be 'much' 3point shots.
my understanding from what ive read is that js is always better then jr, though jr does help.
and you are correct your pf needs good passing and shooting, in somes your pf is basically another shooting sf but with better inside def.

uh, princeton sucks. ok maybe i do not have the team to play it but i cant help. my last private league game was a total disaster. this tactic is way too slow, not even one single shot under 14 seconds, even in the last minute when i am down 5 points or so. the ratings looks quite fine, but the performance was not. i am going to ignore it unless they review and change it.
