So that is what I suppose - SBs navigates your opponent to a player with lower SB skill, right? (or worse defender lets say). But once you had that good bigs how it ended up at outside? Werent guards the weakest link for opponents offense?

I had this game:
PG: ID13 SB6
SG: ID16 SB8
SF: ID17 SB11
PF: ID17 SB14
C: ID18 SB13

opponent played Look inside, I have correctly guessed his Look inside.

His PG: 9/9 inside shots
His SG: 9/14 inside shots
His SF: 4/4 inside shots (IS19)
His PF: 3/5 inside shots (IS20)
His C: 3/6 inside shots (IS19+?)

I bet his PG/SG were about IS18 too.. Correct focus guessed could have something to do, but werent the blocks at bigs the problem why he forced to take inside shots over guards?

Yep.

Part of. There were more jumpers (mid range area between paint and 3-point line) and the opposing guard took more 3ptrs. Even in LI. But thanks to the 3-2 and its bonus on OD it was manageable. Until a point where my OD was just not high enough to stop the shots.

I bet his PG/SG were about IS18 too.. Correct focus guessed could have something to do, but werent the blocks at bigs the problem why he forced to take inside shots over guards?

What defense did you play? 3-2 or m2m?
If you played m2m, than most of the shots from his PG-SF were defended by your PG-SF. The biggest gap in offense-defense is on PG and SG. His SF took only 4 shots and these were high % ones. The rest was to low to take and they played around your SF. And as you posted, his PG and SG took most of the inside shots. That would indicate a mismatch.

So guards should have high SB to avoid those crazy high IS guards. How about ID & no SB guys and SB & no ID guys? Is it enough to have SB to distract opponents players and let them focus on other guys? Is ID enough to stop IS? This would be cheap in salary trap..

I played m2m. Biggest missmatch at pg/sg obviously.

If you go this way, you will end up with a bad defense. The guy with ID>>Sb will defend a lot of actions (because of the high ID) but fail to block the shots (beacause of the low SB). And the player with SB>>ID will defend only a small amount of shots (his ID is too low so he is too bad to actually defend the shots) but the shots he defends, he will block (because than he is strong).

Is ID enough to stop IS?

If ID is higher than IS, it could be enough to influence the player before the shot. So you don't defend the shot by itself, but the whole process before it is taken.

I should've explained better. I wouldn't train RB or SB on my guards, but he can if he wants to. While you are right about the matchups and rebounds, I'm not willing to take the salary or cap space hit (for RB). Just my 2 cents.

RB is a good skill for every player, trust me.

This is where we hold them!
