I didn't really do any financial estimations on my side.
But players who could fit into this roster are quite rare. I think to complement lack of rebounding in 1-3-1, you'd need a roster with high overall rebounding.
In my head SB helps with lack of rebounding in defense, because you have to expect losing on rebounding most of matches. That means more shots from oponent which can be mitigated by SB.

But I was also toying with Princeton or some outside tactic to complement 1-3-1. Which is in general weaker than inside offense vs most common 3-2, but most of the teams playing it are playing SB bigs, so you don't really need the 2 inside, since their bigs are not offensive threat. So cheaper outside offense should be enough to push through.

Creating team like this will take couple of years, it might even be homegrown which is even harder. I think you need standart 2x SB OD ID bigs and standart perimeter attackers, but you need more RB in every position plus SB on perimeter.

Thinking about this, it might be too much for player potentials even if not playing princeton which also needs solid passing.

I guess we'll see in 3-4 years how it played out :-D

"Thank you for your thought-provoking response. I appreciate the depth of your analysis, particularly your emphasis on the importance of high inside defense, outside defense, passing, handling, from a defensive perspective.

"Your observation that the 1-3-1 defense would benefit from bigs with high ID (Interior Defense) is well-rounded .It's intriguing that you mention bigs can get ID for free in conversations before , now which I see underscores the value of having dominant interior defenders. Also wouldn't buying players help, since you only need a few things and SB won't need to be trained?

"Regarding shot blocking on guards, you raise a valid point. While shot blocking is often associated with interior defenders, perimeter players with high shot blocking abilities can be highly effective in disrupting opponents' shooting. However, I'm curious to know more about your thoughts on this topic, particularly regarding the relative importance of shot blocking on guards versus forwards and centers.

I have a question about defensive attributes for 'driving' if any exist.. While driving is often consider a offensive thing. Do you assume or know if there any defensive merits to driving ?

Sorry I made a typo I ment OD is free for bigs
About Driving for def, I don't feel educated enough to confirm nor deny it having an influence.
However it will have influence on elastics so it might be necessary to some degree

LOL. I was thinking the exact same thing!

Damn, should I feel embarassed? :-D

Quite the contrary! Your eloquent and well-crafted voice is similar. I meant it as a compliment. Hopefully, you aren't offended by it.
