My explanation to that is that run and gun has a fast pace. Your players are not waiting for a good pass. They're shooting at the first opportunity. However, I do not have the experience to say for sure. My team has never had a great offensive flow.

I would guess that if you played a lower pace that you would see more assists.

It works like that because more patience = more/better ball movement = more passes whereas run and gun is bringing the ball over half court asap and getting quick shots off.

i think we cant argue this in a one dimensional approach,

i just said assist as an example, since the topic is about offensive flow meaning other things than shooting and driving skills could be beneficial in games played,

as i can say its again depends on your offensive tactic vs their defensive tactic plus the overall skill of each on how they run it!

i had one game that i played run and gun, but it seems on that game my guards were checked and guess what my center became the unsung hero scoring for me.

but as i said it benefits to have a center who can dominate inside as well as a good passer as well as having a point guard who can rebound and have decent blocking skills. sometimes in the game you would see results your happy with.

How about more assists? Do you find that is helping your team at all?



I do get a lot of assists but i dont have any top 10 assist maker... I guess because when you tran handling this also increases driving so I would imagine that as your offensive flow gets better so does your players ability to score unassisted as well via their own drives...

I don't find flow too offensive - and it's only a few days once a month after all.

Are there not events where a player gets a good pass and still drives to the basket?

If not, I think it would make sense for both skills to work in tandem. Sure, sometimes a player could go to the basket with only his driving skill. Other times the player would just need a good pass. But don't you think that in most cases you would need a combination of both skills?

I would like to see the engine take this into account. So a player that is amazing at driving could get a mediocre pass and turn it into a score + an assist.

Are there any players out there who get more than 10 assists on a regular basis?
