It's not that I don't trust your data, I do, but I'd like to see Motion winning against LI in similar strong teams (preferably B3 level).

Unless that happens, I won't even consider using Motion over LI.

this will likely happen in two cases.

1. Somebody builds a team, designed to bring down li defensively and other options are being seriously considered after that

2. Somebody builds a specialized motion team

in either way, this probably won't happen anytime soon. I'm currently in the middle of realizing 1st option and doing the analysis for 2nd

Yes, great example.

@ Koperboy: How are you planning to stop LI attack? I'm curious..

Nothing fancy... just SB on bigs and ID on guards. Actually there's probably a lot of people who know how to build a team for Motion, Princeton and other offenses. They just don't want to take the risk of assembling and training such a team and not know if it will 100% work. But, what is the alternative? Play Look inside until you die? Even if I don't succeed, at least I had fun along the way

Yeah I agree ;)

However, I personally have an idea how to stop Look Inside.

I think LI is stopped more by OD rather than ID.

That said, having a SF with very high OD, modest ID (9), and high rebounding might work great as PF. Unfortunately, I'm not supporter and can't test it on PL. But nevertheless, I'm very intrigued to see how it might work out..

But I don't think BBs designed the game so OD could stop inside tactics...

Oh yes it is. Look what teams win B3. Those with highest OD.

But that's because PGs don't have PA and HA on a high enough level. A PA 17, HA 17 player won't beat an OD 20 player, right?

Probably not.

Hopefully next month I'll be able to have credit card (we don't use them in my country, Albania) and will test some ideas on PL.

I'm also putting Motion on test on my league game today against a slightly weaker opponent, let's see how it will do.
