There are a lot of people who says it doesn't works, me too. That's the reason because of so much teams attacks with inside focus, last season I learned the lesson. You can stop (or try, or defend at least well) an outside attack with 3-2 zone, but it's very hard stop an inside focus attack because there isn't zone if we assume 2-3 not work. You have to defend man to man. I don't know very well box+1inside, so don't talk about it.

Just look B3, the better BB teams. Most of them plays inside focus. Who defends 2-3...? Of course sometimes it works, but the minor, like lucky hit.

What the hell are you talking about?? He asked what's the best weapon against 2-3 zone. He didn't ask if he should use 2-3 zone himself.

Well, any outside oriented attack would be good against 2-3 zone. Personally, I prefer Run and gun against 2-3 zone. 2-3 zone is slower tactic so your aim should be to play faster so that the defense can't set up the zone in time. If you catch defense on wrong foot, you should have a decent number of open 3 pointers to shoot in the game.

I played Patient in my first (and only, so far) game. It's not a good indicator, since there were 10 No Names in the Forfiet (I fielded all 12 of my players).

My PG did okay, buy stayed outside. My SF (actually a Center with 7 Driving/7 Inside Scoring and 7 Jump Range... but low Jump Shot) went 3 of 4 from Down Town. My Back Up SF (an Actual SF, who is probably my best player but comes off the bench so my Youth can play) came in and blew up. 16 of 26, 3 of 6 from outside, 35 Points in 21 Minutes.

If my PG had better Inside Scoring he probably would have shot better than 3 of 9... but even in Patient I still put up 23 3-Pointers, hitting 13. I don't think my teams JS/JR is that good, mostly luck against No Names IMHO. Still, Morrissey (Back Up SF) seemed to have been killing it inside.

Looks like, if you have decent Passing and Ball Handling, Patient will do fine... getting the right guys in the right spot. I'll stick with it a bit to test it more. :D

JR is a lot more important than people realize when it comes to 3 point shooting. Basically why my guys can't shoot threes for ****. I don't really care though as I want to shoot layups, but 2-3 isn't too bad against a team like mine if you can live with giving up the mid range jump shot

Any tactic.

Preferrably outside, but Look inside and Low post will also get you there. If you fall behind, your guards will hit 10 3s in last quarter and win it for you.

I dont know if this actually works good or not cause im just gonna talk about one game... so my last game http://www.http://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/36188284/box... i forgot to change my offense and accidently played look inside against a 2-3 and the whole game his post players and sf were in foul trouble and my center basically killed his players on the inside.... maybe its cause look inside is fast pace but it definitely worked in that game
