as for my next game. my opponent has two guards that has been scoring on all teams in the league. he has 2 centers that are around 20k and a backup for about 16k. My starting bigs are almost 50k and 23k and with backup for 60k (he played a lot of minutes last game so i have to play him as backup this game).

Should i play push the ball + 3-2zone in order to make the perimeter defense stays stronger or should I go for look inside and take the advantage of having better big men and give up some on perimeter defense?

any advises?

maybe you could tell us a bit about the different SF you want to use, and what tactic your opponent plays(guards usually scores a lot even in inside tactics but then the 3-2 Zone won't help).

the different tactics that my opponent use varies between motion, run n gun and outside isolation. I had not seen him use 2-3 zone whatsoever even when playing against top notch inside based team. when they are playing man to man defense, his perimeter defense usually stay between strong and proficient.

they've lost 4 league games so far, which they play againist 2 games of 3-2 zone and 2 games of man to man, if I have to play look inside, this will be the SF im gonna use

Jump Shot: respectable Jump Range: average
Outside Def.: respectable Handling: atrocious
Driving: respectable Passing: inept
Inside Shot: prominent Inside Def.: strong
Rebounding: prominent ↑ Shot Blocking: respectable
Stamina: awful Free Throw: respectable

Experience: pitiful

he is probably the only guy i can use for the sf spot in this game due to the minutes that was play last game...

in this sense also your SF speaks for look inside, and when you would play him in outside defence with a neutral focus you could do it also here. So i would go for 3-2 + look inside even when your SF lost a bit impact on rebounding.
