what exactly would you do if you were in our place, and had only 2 guards with good passing and the rest are at 7-8?
(19776)we also knew that you used a tall dude as a sub there.
If he's tall and his position says "Power Forward", it doesn't necessarily mean his OD is low. Even if it was, I don't know if you can build your strategy on beating a sub.
If you do play with 3 PGs (and I suppose with not so good outside shooting skills) then you risk your whole game on your big buys.
Again...if a player's position is "Point Guard", that doesn't mean he sucks in Inside shot.
1. You were lucky that your PF was not suspended on fouls (or even more, he did 0 fouls) Its a guy with 3,7 fouls per game this season, and above 2,5 on all seasons if you haven't noticed.
If you played an inside tactic, he would probably foul a lot. And even if he did, we had a great backup PF, so I really didn't care for fouls at PF spot.
2. I am not really convinced that your big guys are that better than ours.
I don't know which one is better, but your big guys had much better game shape than ours. That's why I thought you will play inside tactic.
Just today your shorties were passing with three hands.
But it didn't occur to you they just have great passing skill? And despite that, no player had more than 5 assists.
but if you think that today's match was a 30 points difference, then something is wrong, either with me, either with you
Difference between Slovenia and Greece definitely isn't 30 points if we both play to our strenghts. If you play Patient however, then it is what it is.
but just making a point here that luck was at your side)
And what makes you think our centers don't have IS 15? FG of 55% is completely normal for a Look inside bigs who face such ID.
I won't apologize about my post's attidute, cause you came here trying to convince us that you did a good job, sorry I don't buy it.
You don't have to apologize, your attitude is just fine. As long as we're not cursing or throwing around racist remarks, it's all good. However, I didn't try to convince you I've done a good job, because I haven't (I played same tactic with almost same players three times in a row). I just wanted to say you are looking for wrong reasons when you are analyzing your loss. I mean, " Slovenia had luck because someone who fouls a lot didn't make a foul, or shot better than he shoots in the league..."...what? These are the reasons you lost? You have advantage inside, instead you play Patient and that's alright with you, but Kapl not making one foul is so strange? Look at how many FG attempts had your PFs.
About TIE deals: I was going to play Normal first because we really needed this win if we wanted to get to 2nd place. I knew you weren't going to play TIE because you need this win too. So if we had to play with same enthusiasm, it's better to play TIE than to play Normal, don't you think? I mean, even if you lose, you can still get to 2nd place, but you have to get really really lucky. Even if you don't reach 2nd place, you have to win as much as you can to preserve a better country ranking, which means better draws for your country in next season. When trying to reach one of those goals, I'm sure you wouldn't mind picking some extra enthusiasm along the way, would you? But you didn't.
I really wasn't trying to come around as a smartass (I guess it's too late for that, ha), but then I shouldn't write that first post. Anyway, I wish you all the best in next rounds and no more injuries!
