I agree I won't sell the farm but I'm ok with being a little short sighted.

I like using my team as a case study. I don't play seriously enough to have NBBA aspirations. In fact I used to have a team back in season 16 through 21.

My biggest grievance and why I left was I postponed enjoyment of this game because thought I had to play a very postposing gratification style.

I'm looking for a way to enjoy the current season. So I'm looking for archetypes.

For example, I have a SF/PF trainee. I think he would make a good bench guy if I stick to Princeton long term. He is all-star potential. I know he is a waste to train but someone has to be a 3rd (for single position) or 5th/6th trainee (for 2-position) and I will always probably throw this guy into training.

What would you estimate should be his ideal build?

For example how would this buildout look to you for a SF/PF in a Princeton offense?

Grain of salt this is what I saw playing Princeton recently.

So far my breakdown playing Princeton is 40% attempts are 3 pointers.
Most shots get down towards the end of the shot clock.
30% shots come in the paint.
1/3 of paint shots were from my center.
FGA were very even with 17 at SG and 12 at C.
Positions 1-3 shot almost 50% of attempts from 3.
PF shot 1/3 of shots from 3.
SG still took the most shots and threes despite me playing a center at the 2 for minutes.
Forwards and Center were the only players to draw fouls while shooting.


It does appear very 4 out 1 in offensively.

Passing seems to be a big deal in this tactic as I had nearly double my opponent in turnovers. (I was playing players out of position though.)
