1) I think it's our problem that we don't know which skills should be used to specific tactic. The most commonly used tactic is obviously Look inside. The reason is simple. We have to gurds with really high outside defense which stops Motion and R'n'G and another reason is training. For seasons we trained Centers exactly the same way - IS,ID,RB. There is no defence at all in paint.

2) Potential is too expensive on the market, but you can make great player with allstar potential. We exaggerate the meaning of it and as a reasult we pay more for superstars and HoF, but I would say 95% managers don't need such a high potential, because there are a lot of 30-40k players. Another reason are senior and junior NTs. They need high potential to make monsters. Yeah, even u21 has monsters. Especially centers.

4) According to NTs match, probably your Center had really low outside defence.
SB is the cheapest skill in the game, while IS is the most expensive for a C. You're wrong telling that due to high SB salary is really high. If you want to reduce cost just stop training IS :)

6) There are no solution. Maybe TV contract based on teams rankings or salary cap will change something, but it won't make huge difference. I really like idea of salary cap and luxury tax (let's say 1$ paid more for 1$ over salary). I think it will make teams more equal. If salary cap won't be too high teams will make good profit. As a result transfer prices should also go up.

Ofc I tried, in PL, in Cup matches, in 1 League of my country, with NT 6-8 seasons, 3-4 seasons in B3...

This zone should give you more strength in your Inside Defense and Rebounding, you should easy kill LI or LP with this zone, but in practice you can't do nothing with it. They make it almost useless..

It just give you lets say 1 skill in ID, and your OD drop 3-4 or more skills.

So in my opinion that's a big lack in the game, as you can see most of the teams they play LI tactics, and you can't beat this tactic with a zone, they should make it more realistic, so people would have to play other tactic in they offenses and it would be more interesting, more risk...

Why you don't even mention about shot blocking?

Because I talk about the statistic you can see after the match.

Inside defense you also can't see after match, but you include it in your last post. Outside defense is also hard to judge, because there is no defense ratio such as points/possession per player, but everyone recommend it to train for guards.

You know what are you talking about?

You see this ratings after the match

Offensive Flow

You see maybe ID? Really don't know what is your point, what are you trying to say..

OK, now I see your point. However shot blocking is also defence skill and affects rating after match. According to stoping LI - shot blocking may be the solution. Nobody check it yet :) So it's not appropriate to say 2-3 is not working.

And on the flip side, everyone trains the OD in guards to such a high level that opponents can't make 3-pointers either.
