Don't you think with your own limited offense and your great defense that there will be many rebounds the be gotten? The way you currently have it I think you'll lose on the boards. which will be a weak link and erase some of the good defense you have. Maybe drop the IS on your C a bit further for some more REB, so he'll get more putbacks as well.

I think it can work if you can get such a team together. Having such a center is great in any team I think.

I think you need a good offense too. Because point +/- wins titles. I had the 3 best defense last year in the division with a Bad bench. But since the other guys played LI and racked more points they got more wins.

But yes a over powering defense win almost every time.

I think if you drop the IS more then your C will have problems scoring and I pretty much want all of my 5 starters to be capable scorers. I believe that if you spread REB over all 5 players it is'nt all that bad if your C has only 14/15 REB


Although it's not specified, I'd suggest that if you're attempting such a thing that your big men also have OD in the double digit range. I've found over time that it's highly effective in reducing the amount of points given up, and should not have any noticeable impact on salary.

Well I think with high REB in your games come more easy shots. He might not be as good as making shots, but if the shots he gets are easier it's all the same. I just think rebounding is too important if many shots are being missed on both sides. You'll need to play slow offenses I think.

What are acceptable championship winning skills is all relative to what league your in and what the opposition teams have got.

Im a big fan of having guards with high OD as I believe this helps reduce the supply to Look Inside teams

If you have good OD on your guards, how does this reduce LI teams? Is it because you reduce their passing ability to their big guys? I am not understanding this.

That is my theory.

If you can reduce the amount and also the quality of the passes being fed to an opposition teams LI offense, I believe that you can reduce the impact of their LI offense
