point guard

[Coolman]

hey, whenever one of my posts gets a rebound, the point guard doesnt come and get the ball, forcing me to take the ball upcourt with my post player. how do i make it so the PG comes and gets the damn ball?

What team you using? Check the matchup reviews, if your teams a fastbreak team, your guards are gonna run up the court, pass to your forwards then if your fastbreak gets slowed, pass back to the top of the key when your Pointguard pops back out, your small forward usually will have an OK dribble rating.

If your your team has a halfcourt set, your PG will wait before the halfcourt line or walk up to you for the ball.

Ex. Lakers, You seldom see Payton run up the court for a fast break unless he steals it at the arc. He'll stay near the ball in the backcourt.

But, with Dallas, nash and Finley the two dribblers will run up for the fast break leaving you with your forward, Dirk and Jameson (depending on your line up) to dribble up the court after a rebound.

Does this answer your question?

Its in the teams offensive strengths, if the team your using doesn't fit you, then change or just direct pass to your point all the time (might result in steals)
