I have some questions about the tactics and individual skills.

Offensive tactic: Look inside
- when choosing this offensive tactic I should probably look for the players who are best in their inside shoot skill, right? Mostly the inside shoot skill for the C and PF, but what about the SF, SG and PG?
- is it reasonable for this tactic, because there will be mostly inside shooting for my team, as a SF to chose a player that is more a PF? With this I will have 3 big players in my starting lineup... all of them with high IS skill.

If you choose Look Inside as an offensive tactic it won't necessarily mean all of your points will come from inside. I've had a shooting guard rack up 41 points with Look Inside set. But the focus is on the inside players and your team will look to work the ball to them. The inside shooting skill is important for this tactic obviously. Mainly it's just needed for the C, PF, and SF. Just make sure your PG and SG have the ability to get the ball to them.

ok, but after viewing my last match I noticed that I make very few 3 shots (almost insignificant). My SG also goes for the inside shoot regulary.

You won by 39 points, it's not like you had to heave from deep to win.

if you run look inside then you probably won't be shooting a lot of 3's. that would be an outside focus.

Yes but my next opponent will not be easy. My next opponent has very similar team with mine. He is inside focus manager. His IS rating is a level up than mine with the other ratings more or less equal. I don't have much outside scoring potential and I want to increase my inside scoring rating as high as possible. I play at home and I really need to win this match.

I have 3 good big players:

Player 1 with prolific IS, proficient ID, prominent RB and respectable RB
Player 2 with prominent IS, strong ID, strong RB and mediocre SB
Player 3 with strong IS, strong ID, proficient RB and strong SB

they all have same level of game shape and experience.

My choice, so far, is Player 1 as C and Player 2 as PF in the starting line-up.

For the SF I have 2 players:
Player 1 with respectable IS, mediocre ID and respectable RB
Player 2 with atrocious IS, awful ID and respectable RB

My choice is Player 1.

And finally, do I play Look inside or Push the ball. I'm in a doubt because I'm almost 100% sure that he will play 2-3 zone as defense.
