The deal with PTB is that the threshold for how good a shot has to be for your player to take it instead of trying to pass is lowered. This makes everybody take more of "their" shot: Guards and SFs take a lot of threes and jumpers. PFs take a fair number of jumpers, too. And PFs and Cs take more inside shots. But the shots they take will be worse/less open.

So, to run a good PTB, you need a PG with lots of passing to get good early looks. And you need plenty of JS/JR on your guards and SFs, JS/IS for your PF, and IS for your C so they can all score even if they're shooting over a defender. Handling isn't as big a deal, though, since they don't hold on to the ball for very long.

That's my analysis from the outside. Although I seriously considered running PTB, I bailed after a few unsuccessful attempts since I couldn't put together the right personell. Maybe somebody else with more experience could shed more light on the matter.

I am considering PTB because I need to reinvent my team...
