i had a 5 point first quarter. what the hell!? in all of the other quarters i either won or tied. just goes to show you that you can't take a quarter off...or lose your best player early in the game.

So what about it. Can anybody explain my tough luck? Or are my tactics wrong

This is not what I want to find, I will try to say it more exactly.....

For example I want to play Motion....which players take the most important role playing this tactic and which skilsl are the most important for this tactic? Jump shot??? Jump range?? ETC.

motion from the rules:* outside/mid range jump shot focus, normal pace *

so the guards should be the most important to this taktic also the sf takes more shots i think,

from the helpthread:
Point Guard
(1) Handling, Passing
(2) Outside Defense, Driving
(3) Jump Shot, Jump Range, Inside Shot

Shooting Guard
(1) Jump Shot, Jump Range
(2) Handling, Passing,
(3) Driving, Outside Defense, Inside Shot

Small Forward
(1) Jump Shot, Jump Range, Outside Defense
(2) Handling, Passing, Driving
(3) Inside Shot, Inside Defense
(4) Rebounding

so as you see you can find everythink on your own if you use rules and that helpthread.

Hi Nanda,

I'm new, so not sure that I'm the best person to comment, but I think what you're missing in your maths is that players on court don't take equal numbers of shots. So you can't just add up your five "points per 100 shots" and divide by five to get a team percentage.

That's where the tactics come in.

In your example, concerning the NZ team, their points per 100 shots varied from 59.0 for their SG to 107.8 for their PF. If their PF and SF took lots of shots, while their guards and C passed it on, then they'd score lots. But if they played a tactic which led to their guards and C doing the bulk of the shooting then the team's overall shooting percentage would be much worse.

So, to go from the points per 100 shots data to a team scoring percentage, you need to multiply each position's scoring rate by the proportion of shots taken from that position in the game. It's not a simple add-em-up-and-divide-by-5.
