So : I'm going to play against the team which I've already beated once in my bb history it was 17 days ago. But My team is different a little better, my leaderplayers have been changed. The Thing that makes me scare is that that manager has been last seen 23rd december 07. So He isn't gonna change his tactics and players, he haven't any injured players.

Offensive Strategy: Base Offense
Defensive Strategy: Man to Man

That is his style to play now a days. (have always been)

When i last played against the same team my tactics was run n gun and d was man to man and i won it 7 p . I have Crunch Time on

I've been scouting that team and I can see that he is poorly and he center who scores 3point per game(so sad) but good pf, my power forward has respecable outside d and my center has respectable inside d. So i've been thinking to put my d 3-2 zone, is it okay ? And offense Base Offense ?

So if you guys can give some tips to my tommorows game i would be glad to hear it.

I think playing 3-2 zone against a team who has better inside scoring than your inside defence and better (much better) rebounding than you is very, very dangerous.

You can't afford to CT against him again, because if you win your enthusiasm will be ruined for the finals.

So I'd recommend sticking to man-to-man defence, or if you're going to gamble go for 2-3 zone to close the rebounding difference. Base offence may be a good option since his recent defence ratings have been fairly balanced, as is your offence.

3-2 zone is exelent,but ofense is better for you to play run and gun

yep, before you guys answered I talked with my brother and he told me that I should stay in my hiphop which is man to man d.
After that I told him my opponent has a horrible center which plays 35 min in a game , he told me that if I make sure I score inside with my center I should Offense with look inside ?

I have an elimination game tomorrow, and I would need some advice how to play. I lost the last game against team Lieto-Koris about 20 points (they leaded me only nine points before the 4th quarter). Their centers made only 10 points. So, how should I play tomorrow or can I say goodbye to League II? :)
You can check my last game against they more closely if you need.

Thanks for advice!

how should i play tomorrow, think the opponents team is going to be a bot in few weeks but right now i have to beat his fine outside ratings, how should i play, normal with my good inside rating or some special taktik?

It's going to be a tough game whatever you do.

His best scorer is his small forward Velichkov, and if you have a player with good inside and outside defence, I would play him at SF to reduce Velichkov's impact. I would use the man to man defence tactic since your defence ratings are quite well balanced.

thank you for the advice,
my sf has average outside and respectable inside def hope thats going to be enough to slower his player.

Your opponent has some rather nice inside offence ratings so 2-3 zone is probably the way to go.

On offence, you'll probably have more success with motion since that's where his defence is weaker.
