Say a team plays Look Inside or Low Post. We know that the bigs are going to get the majority of the points and that's how it should be. But what would the ideal guard(s) look like to run an inside game? I know they would need the passing and handling to get the ball inside consistently without turning it over... but would good Driving and Inside Shot of their own help them create scoring opportunities for themselves?

Also, how affective would the guards JS and JR be while running an offense to pound the ball into the post?

my is 1 and another guard with 7/7 IS/DR didn't have so much trouble to compete scroring wise with guards with similiar guard offensiv skill then them.
But on the other hand, my PF can score a bit on the guard pos, and i don't think that it is just his 13/8 Shooting.

So i say it is not that important, but it gives you a bonus but a guard should be still able to shot more then going inside.

Word on the street is you need IS and driving on your SF/SG/PG for LI but for LP you only need IS and DR for the guards. You can use another PF for your SF in LP.

Are you guys saying I should play my PF at the SF position? Why? What would I play at PF?

Interesting theory. But another PF at the 3 & you'll get caught on the Outside, especially as most teams run 2's at the 3 spot.

So for this offensive set I'm still thinking that a guard should look something like

JS: 10 JR: 9
OD: 14 HA: 11
DR: 12 PA 12
IS: 6-8

Or am I wrong? My first priority for the guards is to feed the bigs, and after that a few driving layups should be their second look followed by a jump shot.

The way I look at it is if my bigs fail to score, which will happen at times, where do I go then?
Those stats look about right to me, for what it's worth.
