Well I'm not sure how true is your statement, but I kinda disagree about this. Slower tactics don't necessarily have to be for strong passers. Back in my first few seasons, my PGs have the best handling in the country, but their passing sucks (I had to train their shooting at the expense of passing after I found out that no matter how good your offensive flow is, if you got lousy shooters, you still lose). Yet I've never had any problem facing FCP teams with slow tactics. Any explanation here?

What i am saying, is that TO can be produced by 2 factors. Bad handling or bad passing or both. So fast tactics using less passing, and its more on the respective player to create his scoring opportunities than the others create them for him (as the slower paced tactics). Having both of course, is giving you the chance to decide what to play. I am saying exactly what manual says, plus giving the importance of passing for the slower tactics.

Now about the passing/slower tactics. From my experience playing both RnG/motion i saw the % of my players going up considerably. In sum up i will take less shooting/more passing, and i still believe that i will have the same result (or better) with lower salary. On my PG +1 on JS means 12k salary more, +2 on PA no salary affect...

Now about the explanation that you are asking, i dont have either any problems with that. Why? 1st i consider FCP the worse D tactic on the game, 2nd since the players getting tired faster, so you need good bench to keep it up, 3rd if you are much better team, you will win anyway.

well, but if you are not a much better team, but rather about as strong or slightly weaker as your opponent, you won't win anyway and that's the reason I was asking the question originally.

I'll probably decide later on how to approach all of this. There's still 24h left, after all.

i think smedlock has pointed out perfectly what is FCP. its easy to decide if you read his post.

I am going to plan to do FCP in my upcoming scrimmage after i got my ass beated with a 90-65 loss to San Fransisco Vipers.

Good and easy win ;)

Yeah, thank you all for the support and advice.

It really was surprisingly easy, and the final 13-pt margin doesn't even tell the story as my team led by 31 by half-time, so my bench played the entire fourth quarter in garbage time where I lost some of my advantage. I'm pretty much looking forward to the Playoffs, as there is only one team i Haven't beaten so far this season, and that was at their place and barely, so if I can win the second encounter I'm guaranteed to meet them in the POs at home (unless I lose some more matches).

Should I take it for granted that if I got better handling than passing I should use fast pacing tactics?

So here's my confusion. I have a better handling team, but with low stamina. As we know, fast pacing tactics tire your players faster, so they give less on 3rd and 4rth period. So what tactic should I generally use with teams that are equality good as me, faster or slower?

The general idea is exactly that.

As we know, fast pacing tactics tire your players faster

Thats is just a guess, and i never saw any BB mentioning something like that, or any prove about it. Even if its true, improving the stamina is not that hard isnt?

Check out this game: (27553503)
I played against team that plays almost all games FCP.. I didnt choosed fast or slow, i took standart BO.
Well i can say his pressing didn't worked very well he got more TO than me.. i had much better ratings at offensive flow, so i guess thats why i got good game.

PS. But something is very wierd still he got 17 blocks in game.. thats hight i think..
