3) Run and Gun is a better offensive option than Push the ball, both in general and for you. I tend to use balanced offenses only if I am fairly convinced I am going against a zone defense. You can always use it as a surprise weapon though.


really? interesting. *ponders*

Run and Gun and Look Inside are statistically the strongest offenses to run as you will shoot at a higher percentage than the other tactics. Its more of a flaw of the game than anything else.

OK, that I knew. I'm referring more to question of why Coco runs a balanced offense when the other team is running a zone... that's confusing me.

They also wear your players down and cause you to give up more points. You may score more, but you may allow your opponent to score at a higher rate also.

Well, I thought I had this whole managing thing down pat. But the more I switch around training and game time strategies, I've seem to better, then worse, then better.
And I just can't understand it.

Last season, I did fairly well, training big men with 4 decent quality guards.
Then come the beginning of this season with the exact same squad except my downlow had just gotten better, I started losing, basically every game.
I have no idea why. Competition got probably just a hair tougher but, that shouldn't keep me from winning.
So I decided to sell 3 of my 4 guards, I kept Toby and I picked up a stud PG and 2 trainees.
The PG can't shoot, but can defend, handle and pass.
Now all of a sudden I start winning games, now that I basically have 1 real guard. I have managed to pull out a win against the #1 and 2 seeds!
I'm stumped now.

I got trounced on the road this week to fall into a 3 way tie at 19-2.

I play at home, on TV against one of the other 19-2 teams in the next match.

If you've got some time, I'd like to game plan around this game heading into the playoffs in first place would be preferred.

Wow...that's going to be an exciting finale to the regular season in your conference.

Good luck,
