Ok I just thought of something.

Since now an injured player gets treatment during the offseason, they should also have time to rest, no?
Right now, I'm not able to play some of my players, because they already played 60+ minutes this week. Except they should be rested after the offseason.

This Friday (22/04) all players will be set to respectable gameshape so the minutes they play this training week don't matter for game shape.

How do you manage to get outrebounded by 38 rebounds and only lose by 3 points?

So gameshape was reset during the offseason, and will be reset, again, 4 days later? It doesn't say that.

April 18 (Mo): We begin off-season processing. After the conclusion of the last competitive national team game of the day, this involves a Game Shape reset, so it is probably inadvisable for most teams to train Game Shape.

April 18 (Mo): U21Elections begin late tonight (EST). Please refer to the U21 "Election Central" page for further information about the deadlines to register and vote.

April 23 (Sa): First league game day of the new season.

I thought I didn't have to care about minutes played during the last week of the playoffs, because GS resets in the offseason, but the minutes are still there, so I hope you're right and there is a GS reset friday and not just a GS update.

mine 2-3 worked as i expected. i don't believe it's not working, but i don't use it a lot although.

maybe help defense happens more, than you see on the viewer. also i think you can't leave your outside defense to be much lower than opponents outside shooting while they play LI or LP. there was some blocks too. btw i should say that my 3 players sf-c had worse GS than his c-pf. also he played a sf with only mediocre IS. maybe if his sf would be better inside player the result would be different, but all games i see that is claimed to be nonsense and not working 2-3 zone, can be explained. for example your match... well effort difrence first, and as i guess you didn't have tall players with jumpshot, which is important for LI.

I can show more games like this.

Italia giving 33 assist, i can assure you that the SF-PF-C had good ID and despite the fact we had better offensive flow, we only assisted 11, while they did 33, just shows how weak 2-3 is.

PD: Ofc we had decent SB's

PD2: On that season we won them with m2m, but with 2-3 zone we weren't able to do it.

Really? While in general everyone will be able to find single-game examples to back up their own statements, and while I thus don't really like to comment on that kind of example I think this game is rather interesting.

Do you really think Italy's Look Inside has been effective? Do you think Spain had won the game playing a man defense?

The Inside men of Italy were defended very well. The matchup ratings show they should have been clearly -massively- dominating their direct opponents. Somehow, however, Spain managed to stay in the game. You managed to shut down the inside players, hence Italy's guards and SF took the far majority of the shots and thus worse looks. The inside men only managed to take less than 1/3rd of the shots, while they should have had many great looks. 33 assist is many, yes, but it's also an empty stat without the context. Were it assist to worse outside looks, or were it assist to good inside looks? Seeing the shot distribution, I would vote for the latter.

Most of Spain's players were clearly outperformed by their opponents, I think with any other tactic this game would have ended up in a total blowout, with Italy winning by 20+ points.
