Hey, so I have a cup game next thursday which I prefer to win. I'm quite beginner with setting the right tactics, that's why I'm asking for your advice.

I've played the whole season with low post and outside box and one, and they seems to be working quite well.

The team I'm playing against is:

http://www.buzzerbeater.com/team/172610/overview.aspx

And the team seems to use these tactics:

Base Offence Offensive Strategy
2-3 Zone Defensive Strategy

I'll be most likely using crunch. My enthusiasm is @ 10 right now. Should I be using the same tactics I've used the whole season, or should I change something? Thx.

There's good news and bad news

Bad:
He has better players
He's playing at home

Good:
Your enthusiasm
you're going Crunch time
He has terrible game shape - his 2 best guards have inept game shape
put your best JS guys against his guards and play motion or RNG against his 2-3 (IMO)
his GS will also force him to miss plenty shots

Think you have a good shot even if his players are better
good luck

Not exactly sure what you mean by putting my best JS guys against his guards. Do you mean if my best JS guy is SF, I should play my SF in PF position for instance? Or do you mean I should make my best JS guys defend against his guards? Or what :D Thx.

Headless T gunner wants to say that(and I agree with him too) that u should play the players with best JS and JR at PG,SG and SF and play RnG or motion to countr his 2-3 defense coz 2-3 will hammer him in parametric defense so it will give u the best chance to defeat him
But make sure that u don't let go of OD,handling and passing while setting the players with best JS and JR at the above mentioned positions.
Hope that helped

Thx , it did. My PG,SG and SF already has the best JS's in my team, so I don't have to change anything I assume. But thx for the advice!

Any time mate.just hope that ur opponent does not surf the help forums.though I doubt he does coz if he would have done then he would atleast have known how to manage GS.;)

Mostly it's about abusing his 2-3 and I prefere it over the other outside tactics, I've had great luck with destroying 2-3 with Princeton.
Plus your SF>his, his guards are hungover, along with his star center.
BTW, your 11k center is like wicked ugly xD
