Princeton: outside/inside focus (fewer 2 point jump shots), decreased pace<--- according to rules, what about focus with this?

In a slower paced offense more of the shot clock gets used, thus you have to play defense for longer stretches of time without breaking down and giving up an easy shot. I assume BB adjusting to a slower pace would mean less open looks late in the shot clock.

I have 1757 players for sale and I'm $25,835,360 in debt. Buy them at outrageous prices, or be selfish and make me go bankrupt. You decide, BB.

Hopefully we will have this feature in PL also, and not only in scrimmages where it's completely useless since 99% of the time you're playing with scrubs and not your actual line-up...

I don't really get this new functionnality. I understand that the game curently favorises too much inside attack but I'm sceptical about the GDP feature.

First, I think that it's a good idea that both form of offense should co exist. But why force every team to use both ? The Chicago Bulls had almost no inside player and that didn't prevent them from winning it all. It's fine if some teams are inside oriented and others outside oriented.

Most important, I believe it's going to put to much hasard in the game. Your team is in playoffs final but your opponent has a better roster. Now you can use GDP and you might win the game on a coin toss. I don't think that's fair. BB is a management game and the good thing about it is that in the end the best team wins.It would really upset me to loose games because my opponent got lucky.

In real Basketball, teams try do disrupt tendencies but it doesn't necessary give them an edge over their opponent. Here you just have to click and you're sure it works.

I believe the Heat won because they had a better team than the Clippers anyway.
