Here's a pretty valuable tip. Once you got characters on high levels, set the attack pattern to that "5-in-a-line" mode. Then when you have the ball toss it between your midfielder and defenders and I hope they have almost 14 throw points (14 is able to throw from one end of the court to the other). Then when it's time to shoot, toss to Tidus or your other attacker and let'm have it. If all goes well, the computer will keep on attacking the defender or midfielder and by the time you are close enough to shoot, it will be a clear, open shot. It's helped me score several points per game.
