When I played outside iso (90485611), my stretch four took the most shots (probably the best matchup), and my sharpshooting guard took the second most shots. Combined, they took about half of my team's total shots.

IS might determine who gets isolated but it does not necessarily determine shot type. It's a balanced offense not an inside offense so if you want that iso guy to score he's going to need DR and JS/JR too. If the guy getting isoed is a big and he doesn't have a bunch of JS/JR to go with DR/IS you probably need to a bunch of HA/PA or you will have probably getting quality of shots.

I am pretty sure that the Isos do not look for a matchup like PTB/BO/Patient. Important that you have the skills to play it successfully.

That's what I'm guessing, as well? There is only one guy in your starting line-up that is a beast (in relative terms, compared to the rest of your team); so this guy gets 90% of the possession?

My guess is that Outside Iso has the highest JS/JR guy is the one isoed and the Inside is the highest IS. This does not mean that he will shoot the ball like in patient but the offense is run through that player rather than the PG like in most offenses. IMHO, this is not a great offense if you just have one super great player that you want to take alot of shots. I do think the player isoed needs great flow so if they do not find there shot, they create a kick out shot for a teammate. Everyone needs balanced amounts of JS/JR/DR/IS for their position to score.

I think you need a special player with flow and IS (for inside iso) or JS/JR (for outside iso) but besides that the shot breakdown by shot type and position is not too different from Base Offense the way that most people play it.
