I'm going to try something crazy against my next opponent.

He's got me outclassed so I'm willing to experiment.

I play man defense to take advantage of my players' talents, but he has me significantly outsized at the guard positions and I'm afraid they'll get pushed around.

He's a good shooting team in general, but his smalls are poor from distance (25%) and he doesn't like to shoot it from there anyway (3 pt shooting set to Less in every game on his sched). I'm switching to zone to see if I can force to beat me from beyond the arc. He'll still probably wallop me, but I like tinkering.

Matchup considerations definitely matter. -- nm - Dano May 21, 08:52 1
- Well that worked pretty well. Tight game most of the way, but he went on a 20-3 run late and buried me. -- nm - Barontronic May 21, 09:30
