I don't feel that It's easier to scoring inside , that's a problem .

I believe is not a problem. Scoring outside and inside should be equally interesting in order to keep a balanced game(not making any strategy to be strictly dominated by the others)

They way I'm seeing this is that it is easier to move the ball to outside players in order to get 3ps and long 2pt shots than getting it under the rim(makes sense, right?) but it is harder to convert that long outside shot than the opportunity your C eventually gets when the ball is his hands and their foots on the paint(for me also makes sense).

ok so anyone here still think that outside tactics is not waaaaay stronger then inside tactics just look at my last game

Really? You dont wonder why your SG is taking 28 (!) shots compared to the 13 your center is taking? And your PG took 14, your PF 13..

Maybe your guards couldnt get the ball inside. Your inside guys were screaming like hell to throw them the ball, they would easily dunk their oppontents WITH the ball true the hoop..But the ouside D of the opponent was just to hard to come by, not enough handling and passing for your guys (read as offensive flow).

I guess your guards thought: if i cant pass it, ill have to shoot before shot-clock stops running. DAMN, another miss.. DAMN, 1-17 3-pointers.

Not trying to be rude here. But just want to point out that easily saying R&G is the upper tactic by default isnt the best 'tactic' to win games in the future

Good point, but why the guards doesnt need good offensive flow to go? Its enough to have great guard shooters to win games, but the opposite doesnt work? why? have you seen any team in real life having success without there big men to be able to pass? and if big men need good passing why not be able to train it? (please dont tell me about team training) Do you know how hard is to find a good passing guards out there? Do you know that is way easier to find shooters? and of course way cheaper.

Those are some facts that are making outside attacks much easier to built.

and if big men need good passing why not be able to train it?

I actually had a problem- I wanted to train my PF and also my PG. I thougt, that I will train passing. So, I played my two league games normally, and on scrimmage I played PF 48min on PG position. Hopefully, tomorrow morning both of them will pop. That shows actually, that you don't have to be farm team, crazy, or something else to train passing for big men. In fact, training it is quite simple. And if you're in cup, then you will have to choose a game, where you can blowout your opponent, and play your big men as guards there. It shouldn't be hard for you, or is it?

As Mav fav you consider Harris as a good PG? If yes then i can understand why you think that Parker is great 1 too. As a Mav fun you should know what is great PG. You had for several years the 2 times MVP, and now you have 1 of the best ever even if he is on his last days of his career. Deron? Paul? Those are great PG's not Parker. Even Rondo is better passing guard than him. Better player? Hardly. Do you think that Rose is great PG? he can drive at will but what about his court vision?

Parker is more product of the system than anything else. What he can do great? drive to the lane and use his unstoppable floater, using his quickness. Is he a great passing G? No. Just check his stats. Is he getting better? for sure thats why he can shoot some mid range shots. Parker will start fading away as soon as his athleticism dismiss. AI anyone?

Why Nash is playing at his 35 like an MVP? because he has great skills, 3pt shooting/passing/court vision. Qualities that will be there even when he will be 40.

What if you are training solely big men? (something that the majority is doing. Chose training positions and stick on them. What deference will make if i take my C from 1 skill at passing to 2? About cup. Just check my schedule. I had 2 strong games on the same week for the championship. Then cup game against CBBA team. Guess what? ive lost the cup game because i tried to give the proper training minutes to my players. Tell me again if its easy.

Handling for my big men its not a problem, and i am always finding time to train JS. Actually 4 of my 5 trainees have at least 7 on JS, with higher going to 10. I dont consider that as a problem. I can accept that JS is very important and i will find a way to train it. What about passing?
