Well I've done the unthinkable, I've made it to the finals. After seasons of hard work, it is finally starting to pay off. My team is on fire, but the job isn't done. I now have to play against the best team in the league. I think I might have the talent to beat them, but I need help with tactics. On offense I will run patient as normal, but I don't know what to do on defense. They will most likely play Look Inside. I could play 2-3, but he has a SG that could burn me on the outside. And I would be overmatched if I play man to man. Help!

If he is playing look inside, 2-3 zone def is a good choice.
Good SG (assuming good JS, JR) in Look inside is useful when they need 3 pointers back from behind.
If you have a very good OD player to guard him, Man-to-Man might be good too.
In general, I will use 2-3 zone def.

It is going to be a lot tougher when your top 3 players are 7, 7, and 4 GS. Why are you starting Kosta 3 games a week? At 4GS and 25k salary he will play less effectively than a 10k player.
My guess is you don't have the correct skill sets to stop a team using 2-3. Try man 1st game and if it doesn't work then go back to the drawing board.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

I lose my first home game. I make a trouble mistake on using 2-3 zone def.
What should I do for second game?

Probably not play 2-3 zone def.
When you aren't 100% sure, use man.

I think my players are better than him.
Hopefully i can win when changing to 3-2 zone def.

As long as he won't play low post, which he has 2 recent games. Man is safer. Up to you tho.

Thanks to both of you.
My team's rating is better indeed (except center).
Preferably, I can win at least one game.
