I will continue to ask for evidence.




I don't think you'll find anything more conclusive than the words of the creator of this game
I have a hunch he knows what he's talking about ;)

There is a physicality attribute. This was explained in the original post under the Physicality section.

Naker is correct (34446.6). This information has been around for a while. Remember the Manual is a guide it is meant to start people off and be a quick reference. Most of the game needs to be learned through experience and discussing with older managers their experiences.

- Offensive settings of each team. If you take jump shots while they pound the ball inside, they're likely to get to the line more often.


I've read this sentence a few times now and am still struggling to get my head around it. I don't expect a run-through but can someone confirm if I am at least thinking in the right direction!

If my team is taking a lot of Jumpshots (ie. I play Motion or something similar) and they 'pound' the ball inside (they go Look Inside/Low Post) they will get more FT's.....

Is that simply because more fouls occur in the paint or because you are likely to be less physical when trying to block a 3point attempt?

I read that over and over as well and still am not sure what it means.
But I think it means that playing inside tactics draws more fouls because that's where more fouls generally occur.

I'm sure it could be a little bit of both but I think the more logical explanation is that a lot more fouls occur in the paint.

It seems pretty straight forward to me and I read this the same way you did.

I think the former is explained by the latter - usually the bodies aren't banging around on the perimeter like they are close to the basket.

Also, a drive to the basket is more likely to end in a foul of some sort - there's almost always going to be some contact in that situation.

i always had a feeling that players experience influences fouls a little. can you confirm that is not true?

Do you guys think a players stamina or lack thereof plays a role in fouling as well ?
