I don't think that would be necessary, but I'll reach out if I start looking at usage rates later.

Salary and DMI has nothing to do with the reverse patient. Patient, reverse or normal, searches for the player with the best JS+JR to shoot the ball , mostly with jump shots and 3's. If ur most expensive players is a tall guy with high IS ID REB but low JS JR he will not take shots

Gameshape also counts when playing reverse patient. When ur best outside scorer is substituted then the game engine searches for the next guy with the best JS + JR on the court. Half or even more of the shots are taken by the best shooter, the other shots are randomly distributed, depending on the opponent's defense and his strengts/weaknesses

I was told it was the best attacker (for example game shape can modify the player that take the more shots)


Yes that is correct, the best outside attacker/shooter takes most of the shots in patient offense.

Dude, don't make assumptions when u clearly dont know what you are talking about. I read all the comments carefully and thoroughly. It is a pity to share false and inaccurate information to other managers. So please next time you post something, make sure to doublecheck it is accurate.


You changed and modified your initial statement like 3 times. First you talk about salary and then u talk about skills that increase SG salary. Be more specific. passing increases sg salary, driving and handling also. But they are not crucial skills to a patient offense.

They had different defenders.
Patient is looking for the biggest mismatch. One game it was for your player A, another game it was for your player B.
Also if you have a relatively equal squad, then patient will not bring this "magic" distribution in terms of shots, it will be more spread out.

If you need some sort of guide lines for reverse patient:
- unbalanced squad set up works best (so you have one really good shooter and the rest of the team is just average)
- you assign your best shooter to C which "potentially" will cause the biggest mismatch (usually C has less OD and so your JS + JR + DR combo can shine)

Dumb question: I still do not understand why it's better to use patient and not other offensive tactic. What happens with other tactics? Yesterday I used it with motion (I forgot to set the tactic on patient) and it worked not too bad. What I'm missing? Why Patient is the best choice?
Thanks

There is no "one size fits all" offense which is the best to use in every situation (although iirc apparently according to the BBs in the olden days, base offense is supposed to be the best).

Just that in some situations, patient works better. Especially when you have one player with much higher JS/JR than whole team. It also gives you a fighting chance against a team who is way more superior than yours (tho you gotta hope that you catch em with the OD mismatch and they don't have 2 post players with high OD).
