I´m playing Princeton vers often. From my experience, it is a slow outside orientated offense that really needs high passing skills of your guards. I changed my PG from PS 14 to PS 8 and started training the new ones. Although I think every offense is mainly run through the passing skill of the PG, with Princeton it seems to be the main factor. With the training progress the offense works better now for my team, but it´s still a slow offense.
The big men need to have decent passing skills as well, and the PF can be a factor in outside shooting as well, but for my team the SG and especially the SF are the main contributors for the offense.
Either the SF or the PF (ideally both) should have superior outside skills as they can easily create mismatches. And Princeton seems to be the best choice to use those mismatches.

From all the reading and individual discussions about Princeton, it was my understanding that the PF is key in this offense. From the game you have linked although BCT's PF had a rating of 17.5 !!! his scoring was 1/8 so I am wondering why that was so successful in this situation. My guess would be that the PF was not the best option so the ball was constantly shot from the outside without the PF's involvement because he only has 2 or 3 assists. Any comments would be welcome.

Yes, he could have been successful on the defensive side but the discussion is about Princeton an offensive tactic and my question regards my previous understanding that the PF is heavily involved in the offense of the Princeton which in this example it does not seem to be the case.

Sorry, I must have misunderstood you. It is difficult to follow all of the run-on sentences.
