I have been using motion offense but my power forward and centre noe both have strong inside shot skills. Earlier in the season I was using look inside as my offensive tactic but lost quite a number of games. Since switching to motion I have been winning many games.

The problem I have is that using motion means that my PF and C don`t get many shots even though they are my strongest offensive players. So, is there a tactic other than look inside that will get those two players more shots because when I used look inside earlier in the season I wasn`t winning games. Maybe low post?

My starting PF and C are Karunas and Vaccarini.

You could use a neutral tactic like Push the Ball, Base Offense or Patient.

If you are winning, stick with Motion.

EDIT: I looked at your game ratings, your team appears to be better from outside anyway. Not only that, but teams tend to have weaker perimeter defenses in the higher divisions, so you should be fine.

Thanks for the advice. I`ll stick with what I usually use. That was my instinct, but I wanted to try and get my PF more shots.

Well people might start using 3-2 zones against your team if you use Motion every game so you could try a neutral tactic like Push the Ball now and then to keep them guessing a bit.

I think individual matchups have at least something to do with how many shots your players get. I've been having success with Motion as well, though I do have a better outside scoring rating, but my PF still gets a healthy amount of shots. About as many as my SF. The guards still put it up more, though.
