1) his outside scoring is not so weak as you made it out to be, it's ratingswise about as good as yours.



I did not mean to indicate that his O/S was "weak" in the ratings terminology. Merely that his I/S was significantly better than his O/S.

Good driving plus decent inside shot and good jump shooting can make look inside not completely suck for you. Note - I've not done extensive studies on this but with my team it seems that (depending on the match up) that driving guards can get their opposition in foul trouble when playing look inside. Also, look inside changes the type of shot your team takes (less threes) but if your guards are your best players they should still their share of shots.

Thanks for the heads up.

We're inside of 10 minutes now so I don't mind divulging that I went MTM with PTB.

Here's hoping the increased pace combined with my superior rebounding compensates for the fact that I did not know whether he'd stick with the way he beat me previously or revert back to his usual line up.

I'm also hopeful that if he went with 1-3-1 again, I'll get enough opportunities inside that I'll overcome his defense.

Looking like I should've followed your advise and stuck with the 2-3 zone.

he's attempted precisely 1 shot outside of the lane so far this game. Looks like another season in IV for me if something doesn't change.

Alternately, why haven't I attempted any 3 pts with PTB? I have very little experience with this offense, I figured it would be a good mix but it seems I'm going to the hole a lot more too.

Well, it appears its an ask and you shall receive type thing here on BB.

Went back to watch the game and the team fired off 3, 3 pointers. Only made 1 of them but it was nice to see my guys doing a little bit of what we're good at.

Closed the gap to 2 to end the quarter. I can live with the way things played out towards the end.

Judging by the news on HT, BB may be taking a back burner.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live
