No this is common
The PG is now 1-19 in the last 4 games
His GS is always a 9

3 Point shooters just don't make enough shots no matter what Offense you use
Outside D is way stronger than JR

OD is probably too strong of a skill but I don't see a GE rewrite anytime soon in the future.

The game day prep has been a help in slowing down Inside Off
so I feel it a must to develop outside game and JR
You can win by switching off from Inside
but it would help if it was possible to train a dominant outside shooter who was effective

It would help, sure. But outside offense is hopelessly broken. And what's worse, even if you build a team that somehow manages to shoot a higher percentage from three than from two (which, I have, just to try to disprove the theory thatoutside shooting is impossible to succeed with), your team will still refuse to adjust their shot selection to shoot even half of their attempts from outside. On the bright side, all you have to do to win with an outside offense against a good team is ... well, I don't know, because holding teams to the low 70s and having a 19 point lead entering the fourth apparently isn't good enough. I'm done hoping for anything from all the time I spent training JR, and at this point, I'm just hoping that next season when I can have four guys on the court with 15 SB, I might be able to win games 63-61 (well, maybe two seasons later once I can train rebounding high enough to offset the boost that LI teams get).

Well I still remember this cup game: (71876419). The assist to turnover ratio for both teams amazes me to this day.

If removing the rebounding advantage for inside tactics can be done without changing much of the GE it should be done. After all, that's where outside tactics lose games most of the times, not being able to rebound the misses and giving up a lot of putbacks.

That should be easier to do than changing share of shots taken from 3 point land, without breaking a dozen other things in the process.

Well a big chunk of the guards in this game have both JR and PA punted in order to hold salary down and be salary efficient for LI. Seems like both of those has something to do with that.
Or I could be wrong and it's a totally random event that happens to all such teams.


There's also the problem that outside offenses are just inside offenses with bonuses to outside shooting and penalties to inside shooting. The shot distribution is the same, and if you can't score inside you can't score.
