I honestly don't understand this offense at all. I mean I do but I don't.

The offense gives huge boosts to inside shot but the offense rarely goes inside. It's all jump shots. Is it broken? I don't get it. Why the IS boosts in the match ratings but all it does is chuck up jumpers?

Thank you for this. Watching some of your games I can reasonably think that the primary objective for the offense is to get a layup.

That would explain a lot. That said, I'm just not sure what exactly goes on when that doesn't happen though.

Maybe a nice example of Patient in my game today
(36360008)

My shot percentages are really sky high!

I guess because of your opponent od was inept :) 12-19 is very good 3pt percentage.

Anyone could have those percentages against 2-3 defense...I guess even FCP would work better than 2-3, so it was a very poor defensive choice by your opponent.

So you don't think it has to do with the offense choice, you believe every other offense would have that kind of percentages?

Overall, I would never use Patient on an important match. It's just not reliable and in most tested cases, it failed shortly.

Besides, I still have big trouble understanding when it can be effective.

I got results from slow pace tactics like patient when I face stronger teams. I have beaten team from better leagues using patient. You have to try and, sometimes, fail... in order to suceed! Passing is very important in this tactic too.
