I think all you get by lowering flow is more TOs...

You can go for high HA to try to help, but with low PA around the court I think you just get turnovers.


I agree. More than anything I just want functionally bad flow so my players don't always automatically turn it over, but get forced to throw up outside shots because they can't drive or pass incisively. I think in the end it doesn't matter - there's almost certainly some soft caps in the logic that prevent you from shooting more than say 40% of your shots from the arc, or turning it over more than a third of the time, or something similar.

Regarding the 1-3-1, what would you consider to be a "good" inside defender and OD? How about competing in league IV?

This was a recent private league game where we played the best perimeter D that I've ever seen.

My starters had OD of:

PG: 10
SG: 8
SF: 6
PF: 7
C: 7




OD alone isn't enough. They need to have SB as well

Varies by league.

Personally I don't like less than 7 SB on any of my starters period.

I guess I am not suppose to ask if you ever played this game before your current team... Maybe this will be deleted.

I just think it would be good to see the performance of your teams when someone gives advice. Based on your current team it would look like you know nothing of BB, but I get the feeling you played before, quit, and came back...

Or maybe you really are new?

I guess this will be deleted. I just don't think SB is important outside C in 1-3-1 or that much against Princeton.


You may look at my recent cup game vs GM-Hrudey's team
