Is there a particular offensive tactic, that gets you to the FT line more often?

Updated roster... and figured out offensive tactic
any advice?

I think Bahia Sport is no longer a no-win situation...
but Da Big Boyz, still may be. Muffin Men also now seems like I can take them, any thoughts?

An inside offense, especially Look Inside where there is a lot of driving.

Potential means nothing in the game besides training. Potential is how long you can traina player. That "Center", the ATG, is 6'5. That will greatly decrease his training speed in C/PF stats. I see him being a SF. It's teh stats that bring you up, or down. To sum that up, POtential DOES not effect on how a player plays, but is how long you can train him. Buy a lvl 4 trainer, and train 2 or 3 trainees. I recommend training Israel Jung (If tarined correctly, Might have a possibility for U21), Heath Christiansen (All-star potential is better than your 3 guys wiht star potential), and Mitch Power. These 3 guys can be your center peices in teh next 5-10 seasons, depending on how you train them. Be sure to play one of them each game at PG, and train OD for a while (3+ weeks). Make sure one (1!) is at PG FOR THE WHOLE GAME. That means starter, Back-up, and Reserve PG positions. TO ENSURRE they will get 48+ mins, play STRICTLY FOLLOW THE DEPTH CHART be sure the three trainees get 1 FULL Game each. If you need any other help, DOn't be afraid to ask.

Everything depends, which type of players you want. But basicly mvp+ potencial players are overpriced because of their potencial, which does nothing with how fast does the player trains.

I wouldnt look for any trainee bellow lvl 7, a perenial all star or so potencial, since the cap range of it is like 44-70k in most cases. So anything lower would only be trainable for a 2-3 seazons. you can get decent trainees for like 100-200k. If you planning to train small guys or big guys (you cant train them both effectively) you should look for good outside skills for guards for example 5+ in each of jump shot, jump range outside defence pasing and driving, or 5+ in inside shot, inside defence and rebounding for bigs, atleast. Anything bellow those skills aint worth training. Personally i like to have trainees with high secondary skills too but that isnt neccesary.

Alternate between driving and passing for all 3, train driving at sf and passing at pg it will work best

3-1 record. Still alive in cup, beat Da Big Boyz, but lost to Bahia Sport.

Still struggling to find an effective offense for my team... any thoughts?
