So the question I'm always asking myself, is it better, in general, to go with a tactics that improves and emphases a particular mode (either inside or outside) or better to go with a neutral tactics for fear of being caught going up against the "right" defense.

I think in general I've been pretty conservative and tried to balance my offensive and defensive selections to flatten out my ratings, but then again, I'm still down in series II. :-(

But you got a nice chance to go to the NBBA... :)
I'm also in favor of a well balanced attack, but sometimes it's something hard to achieve, you got to make yourself strong in one aspect of the game and then improve the other one, and unfortunately that takes a lot of time.

My teams should be called the bridesmaids...we've finished second so many times. :-(

However, if you look at what brianjames is doing is easy to see the limits of this perspective. He has chosen his players with an eye to a lot of important little things (e.g. big man skills on outside players and viceversa). I don't think he necessarily has the best players in the NBBA, but he certainly has the best group of players and can win a lot of hard games by running something as simple as a Base Offense/MTM and win most matches.

Good luck on your final series.


It seems like having big man skills for perimeter players and vice versa, would help you when playing offensive tactics weighted to either the outside or inside, not playing Base Offense (neutral offensive tactics).

I won by 9 on the road.

I'm seeing this as an opportunity to play Playoff Normal at home to take my enthusiasm from 9 to 11, am I wrong?

Also thinking about totally changing my offense from R&G or Motion to LI or Base.

Na, you're better off going for it with HCA rather then getting a couple more enthusiasm points and having to overcome HCA in the 3rd game.

Unless you really want to risk it for the extra games attendance money, better to take advantage of HCA, which is big in BB.

You did pretty good with the RNG today with your PG and SG having big games. Motion is similar just slower paced from RNG. I dunno, this was a good win and if all stays the same, but with HCA, you're in good shape for game 2.

If it ain't broke..

Anyone here spend much investment money on scouting for the draft?
