Yes, salaries of players aren't balanced. 5 player with highest salaries:
PG 157k, PG 145k, SF 88k, PF 62k, PF 54k.
Guards have almost tripled salary of bigs.
I think 2x PG 100k + SF 50k + 2x PF 100k should work better with less payroll.
Not sure how well the lower PA would work. Is this something you have tried? I feel lite flow is really important in beating high OD with outside offense.

It will work in this way: Currently Your guards have TSP = 120 or sth like that. If You subtract two levels of PS then Your guards will have TSP = 118 (TSP lower by 2%) and salaries lower by 25% (35k). You will have lower flow and less number of assists. I think flow will be lower by one, maybe two sublevels and You will have ~1 assist less per game. However You will have 70k more to spend to other players and it's more than enough to compensate worse flow in other areas (shooting, rebounding, defence).
Most expensive skill (PS) of most expensive players (two 150k PGs) always means the worst quality to salary ratio in team, no matter how important is this skill.

I am not so sure IS needs to be upped in PG and SG thow some consideration needs to be taken about that, but for me its clear that the biggest impact of the game so far is SF not paying IS.

It would be the same for a 20 passing inside player.

I love the game having free skills, adds to the value of the player without increasing the salary.

Sf free inside shot breaks the balance thow.

I still think small forwards are the key, they are the balance of the game. (or the unbalance in this case)

But while driving inside forwards are really cheap, shooting or spread the floor small forwards are very expensive. Also on the other end of the floor, Inside defense is also very expensive for small forwards. You see good inside teams with 3 mayor offensive players in C, PF and SF being the latter significantly cheaper. But that becomes really imposible for outside teams as outside based SF are very expensive.

If you change SF formula to make JS cheaper and IS as important as JS for the formula, suddenly you get an even playing field.
