Just a suggestion.

I think in professional ball, rarely does any team play FCP for the whole 4 quarters, and every possession of every quarter. Hence, I think the FCP tactic in BB is a bit unrealistic.

I think it would be great to implememnt FCP tactic when the score is very tight in the fourth quarter, in which the coaches start using FCP to put the pressure on the other team, which is very often in pro basketball.

So, I think FCP shouldn't be available as a tactic for the whole game, but rather as a hidden tactic in tight fourth quarters used by all coaches.

What do you guys think?

instead of man to man defence i see few teams who defend just one way during a game, so it is a result of simplification.

I'm honest my horizont stock after the german basketball, but in our first division there are 2 teams who runs full court press very often, and succesfull.

Göttingen usually plays small Ball after the pitino stile, which fits pretty good to the press which was used here they going for steals but they also to use a man to man press as the start of the defence. A press mustn't be unsuccesful when it don't comes to the steal, because you could take time from the clock when the team need ten seconds to start their regular offence system. The other team who presses pretty much in german basketball is Bonn, their pressing leads to even less TO(normally using "zone press" systems), but is pretty effective in defence because of the lost time.

The presses in endgame are really kamikaze ones, which maybe could also fit to the press defence here, so i like to see more variants of presses more then to forbid then.
