What is the best way to counter a FCP? And what is the best way to counter a Push the Ball Offense? Thanks!

use patient or low post. guide says FCP is worst against patient and low post

Push the Ball is pretty mush same as base offense so just use man-to-man

Where in the manual does it say that?

I was told running a faster paced offense beats FCP. That would be R@G, Look Inside, and PTB.

OK. Doesn't really make much sense because in a real game does playing slow get the ball up the court vs heavy pressure? No playing faster beats it.

A FCP is good against any tactic if your handling and passing is bad. However, if you have decent handling and passing, then don't worry about the FCP and play whatever tactic you want. I would recommend going with a Run and Gun.

On the guide I think it is a mistake, the Best Against and Worst Against should be swapped around for FCP.

On another note, I would not recommend using a FCP in 99% of cases. It is a recipe for disaster, and you should be happy to see an opponent using it because it means an easier win for you.

fcp seems to be working pretty well for me i think that the more you use it the better your team gets at it because im seeing my win margins increase for the most part over the year

That'd have more to do with what you're training than your team just getting better at a FCP from repetition.

FCP is only really good against teams with poor offensive flow, you'll struggle if the offense has good passing/handling. FCP decreases your rebounding and defense and is also a bit of a stamina drainer but obviously gives a big boost to turnovers caused. You don't see it used much in most higher leagues.
