My team is definitely a 3 pt/outside shooting team. How can I improve it? Or what offense/defense should I play? I currently play run n gun/full court press... I score a ton, but also give up a lot... Also what should I train? currently im working on jump range since my younger good players r guards...

Thanks

Are you getting beaten badly on the boards? Try 2-3 zone.

Actually, I would suggest a move to man-to-man for a few games and see if that improves your D at all. From there you can either tighten it up with a 2-3 if you are still getting beaten inside, or you can stretch it out to 3-2 or FCP.

It is important to change your tactics occasionally or else your opponent will be able to dial in a tactic that works well against your standard schemes.

If you want to play FCP you need to improve your stamina and OD. Since your good players are guards, this would also increase their value on the TL os you can uograde down the line.
Good luck.

Alright. What does OD mean? And i'm pretty sure i get beat on the boards by about 10 or so...and should I stick with R n G or mix that up too? And just a general question, when do training updates take place?

And nvm on the OD. But you're saying I should train pressure? And PG/SG/SF since my 5 good players rotate in those positions... and would driving help me very much or should I stick w/ Pressure, JS, or JR?

In my opinion, pressure for PG/SG/SF is not a good option. Stick to two positions (PG/SG), if you wish to see (anywhere near) quick results. Since you have 5 players you wish to train, two-position training fits you perfectly.

It all depends on your goal with training. If you are training to sell, I agree. If you are training your team only and are not concerned with the TL or falling behind the Joneses, three position training is ok. I frequently train team or three positions, but I am aware that players improve even if they don't get a little green arrow.

In general and for most people, I think you are probably right. I am training OD 3 positions as we speak, though, so I can't agree for myself.

Three position training is never good,you can train five player in a week training two positions,if you want to sell a player to make some money and buy a player to improve your team,you can do it

with 3 position training, you could train 8 players but not so fast ;)

one place is necessary when you play in backup to collect the wasted minutes, he counted 5 trainnes in two position training so i make the same with 3 position training.

Definitely you should mix up what you play both on offense and defense, imo. By playing the same every week you are giving your opponents an advantage. My team is pretty balanced, and I try to get different types of players at the same positions. I have a PG that is great on D and assists, but not the best shooter, my other PG is more of a shooting specialist. If I know you always run n gun I can creat favorable matchups every time, provided I have the talent.

I say keep em guessin' :)
