ill just post his stats - in answer to your question - he has the equal highest driving with 2 other players.
PG
Jump Shot: marvelous Jump Range: prolific
Outside Def.: prodigious Handling: marvelous
Driving: wondrous Passing: marvelous
Inside Shot: awful Inside Def.: awful
Rebounding: inept Shot Blocking: awful
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: strong

The following is my SG, who tends to do quite well in the Outside Isolation

Jump Shot: marvelous Jump Range: prominent
Outside Def.: wondrous Handling: wondrous
Driving: wondrous Passing: strong
Inside Shot: strong Inside Def.: awful
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: atrocious
Stamina: strong Free Throw: tremendous

The shot distribution is very similar for each position Inside Iso vs Outside Iso, but that data is only available to USA offsiters.

Is this a shot distribution map? id love to know where this exists!

Secondly, just to extend the conversation a bit more, i think the IO and OO offenses are like Base Offense with the focus on either inside/outside. Base offense tends to just be very 'balanced', looking at the best elements of your players, but i find the II and OI tends to look for more selected 'chinks' in ur oppositions armour

eg: Base offence - SG will take lots of shots, because he is awesome - but OD in this game just kills his FG%
vs
OI where the SG will still take lots of shots, but they will be drives, because he has awesome driving and IS.

thats just a rough generalization in my opinion.

all outside vs inside does is pick who the player being isolated is. Outside whoever has the highest JS/JR. Inside whoever has the highest IS. Other than that shot selection and everything is the same IMHO.

i associate both isolation offenses with the professional game of the late '70s, early '80s. ball would be given to one player, and his four teammates -- and their defenders would all gather on the other side of the free throw lane and watch this one player work his moves on his defender.

god, was that boring.

i would love to be able to create a team that truly mimicked today's game at its best, a driving PG with an option to get it to a big man or kick it out to a three point shooter in the corner. passing, motion, shooting skills on almost all players. everybody involved. the direct opposite of the isolation offenses.

Motion? Make sure all players have high passing and JS/JR?

If you read my post on it, or if my last post was to hard to understand again. I said its the base point of those offenses, but other shots will happen as well.

its based on the sum of the skill you have for them, vs the defensive skill the team is seeing . Iso/inside Iso can be mid range all game long it doesn't have to be a 3pts or a lay in basket.. The comfort area is mid range. The base area is the tactic principal. Based on in game skills of the players , the principals will happen more than midrange. but that does not exclude other shots being taken in between .

I hope that's more clearer on my behalf.

This is contrary to what ive experienced.

If we used the above player stats that ive posted - according to your theory, my PG would be more dominant in the OI

But n actual fact, he is not at all. Secondly, with IO, that would suggest my PF is dominant - he is, but my SG is more dominant.

there might be some other factors here that we are not taking into account. But its certainly not 'clear cut' based on JS/JR or IS skills. my experience has shown a more balanced set of scoring options across the team - very much like base offense. but maybe my team is very balanced offensively?

It would probably have a large influence from your opponent's skill points too.

Very difficult to determine........

im assuming this is the case as well.

But in general, in Div II, most oppositions are fairly generic. Play M2M, have good OD on their guards, low investment on SB,

Its generally just the skill set that varies. And generally, if there is going to be a weak link, it will be at SF.

So its *kinda* like a standard opposition pool of data. Sorta. :)

i've never run across any team that routinely took 25 - 35 three pointers in a game, much less hit 45% while doing so.

my understanding JR is that it trains only as a function of JS.

i have a player with a 15 DR, 16 JS, 13 JR, and he is content with maybe a half dozen threes in an outside or neutral offense.

using the Cavaliers or Rockets as a model, such an offense would need
-- a PG that could routinely hit threes, tremendous DR, and great PA
-- a number of shooting options among at least the 2-3-4 spots, all favoring threes
-- capable big men
-- team rebounding
-- deep bench
training such a team would be quite a challenge or, for that matter, assembling these kinds of players from the TL.

motion is good, but it does not do all this.

Is it already clear which player the GE selects in each ISO offense and on what paramaters? For outside ISO, things go as expected with my guards taking a lot of shots and having high assists (so I assume they create the offense), and they are succesful in general I believe because good IS. But in Inside ISO, my PF doesn't take a whole lot of shots while he has 18 IS/13 DR/9 PA. Here's an example of a game against a bad team, so I'd think he would destroy them (he plays C here): (79200998).

He took 10 shots, 4 FT's and had 7 assists, so he was not insignificant but with such a mismatch I expected greater results. It could be that he tried to pass a lot since he has decent passing for a big, but still with 18 IS vs inferior defense taking his own shot should have been the best option a lot more often than 10 times.
