However there should be a clear logic that IF opponent is clogging the lane, players should shoot from midrange/outside at a somewhat good FG% - yet they don't. As I and others have stated, you will find TOP shooters that shoot less than 20-30% in outside offenses, against inside D - that makes no sense.

That was the biggest problem with SB and is still a problem with JR, you can train it really high, the BBs will tell you everything works like intended and yet you don't see the impact.

I would expect JS16++, JR15++ players to shoot at least 35% from three, guards shouldn't block that well in this game (sometimes they do, nobody knows why), so how can OD contest those shots that efficiently?

A 20 JS, 16 JR player should hit like 40+% of his threes - no matter what offense the team is running, the shot is is the same - maybe the frequency of those shots should change, but thats it...

Your guards seems to be doing fairly good though in the games i looked at. When up against a better team though they shoot poor from the 3p line.

Yeah, this is what makes it difficult to pontificate. It is quite likely that most of the tactics work well in games with mediocre teams and so most teams may not see a problem. It just looks to me that guards have it rally tough against tough competition.

Its completely useless to single out a few players or single games, especially since there has been no change in the engine and 3-point shooting seems to be a high variance stat (low samplesize, even after a couple of seasons).

Fact is that outside shooting is no big threat in this game.
