Possession Engine

Every player has an individual profile — layup/midrange/3PT/FT accuracy, defense, rebounding, passing, and speed — and each team has a distinct identity. TEAL plays pace-and-space: fast tempo, heavy 3PT volume, and pick-and-pop ball screens; their defense runs the playbook's show-and-recover on every ball screen plus hard closeouts on shooters. RED plays inside power: slower tempo, drives and rim pressure, pick-and-roll screens, crashing the offensive glass; their defense calls "Blue" post traps when the ball gets deep and "X" switches on skip passes. Shot quality is real: an open look uses the shooter's raw rating, while a closing defender subtracts a contest penalty scaled by their defense rating. Passes can be stolen out of the lane, star players shoot better than role players, and better rebounders win more caroms. Edit PLAYER_PROFILES in the source to tune any player.
