Yes, but I have never read something about the role of pace in defensive tactics. However, it is also stated on the rules that defensive tactics do have pace.


? That post seems a bit contradictory to me.

I agree that just because it isn't said that it doesn't mean 100% that I'm right. However, I have seen no "good" evidence for the other side either. I'm just presenting my bad evidence for my side.

What about a BB saying that stamina do have an effect on performance?

I don't need a BB to say that to know it is true.

It is not clear to me at the moment what I am discussing with you. Are we discussing that stamina has some importance (which I would agree with you)? Or are you saying that pace has an impact on stamina?

If it is about pace, I am not understanding your points very well.

xDDDD

I got confused with it :D

Related to the issue of tactics pace and stamina, my argument would be that if pace is not related to stamina, then, why defensive tactics do have pace? Because, it is pretty clear that argument of shot quality is not the point in defensive pace.

It's not clear at all. There are two parties to a shot, an offensive and a defensive one. Both influence the quality of any given shot.


While I will agree that there are two parties to a shot let me ask you this: We know that pace is one of the variables wich decides wich is the shot quality our team will look for in the offense, now, how does that story fit with the role of pace on defensive tactics?

I noted that in JosefKas "what if" service, changing from a higher paced defence to a lower paced increased the offensive rating. This might be the effect of stamina, but it could of course be some miscalculation. The effect was slight anyway.

The relevance of defense to pace should be pretty straightforward: a defense that is listed as "slower pace" is likely one that will make you work longer in the clock to find a quality shot.


If that is true, then slower paces will be very dominating because you are saying they are better defenses (thinking against a rival who can go outside, inside and neutral with equal probability in a hypotethic situation) than higher paced ones.

That is a really strong idea wich I hope will not be true. Because, you will be saying that a 3-2 (when opponent goes outside) is a better defense than a 2-3(when opponent goes inside) just because of peace (thinking in a balanced offensive/defensive theme for you and your opponent).

I'm really not sure if you are considering those kind of consecuences...

I like your example. However, it is not exactly how I see pace. I always thought that with a slower pace, the offense would increase their pickiness on shots. So for example:

-with a slow pace, they would wait for an opportunity that would give them, on average, 1 pt per shot attempt
-with a fast pace, the offense would wait for an opportunity that would give them, on average, 0.9 pts per shot attempt

The issue with the slow pace is you hit the end of the shot clock more often and when you do that, the offense will take shots that have a low chance of success.

I think that the pace of the game is a combination of the offensive and defensive choices - when combined they give an overall "pace" to the game.
