you would have controlled the boards, if he didn't play 2-3 i get nearly 4 extra level of rebounding when playing it that +40-50%.

Raztting wise i expect an big enthusiam or gs advantage for you(didn't check the salry)

I had three games against the same opponent this season(2* BBB one PL), where i played 2-3 two times of it, the PL match was even in the same week like the second game(so my roster was basically the same, besides the first quarter injury of my SG during the BBB match)


(45458066) 2-3

(45455837) mtm PL
(45611112) 2-3

Edit:
When you compare salary, this 2-3 loss might be intresting to it was a very close game beside the qulity difference of both teams:

I was abl to upset the top team in my conference last week and I am looking to make another upset this week. The team I am playing against ALWAYS uses "Look Inside". From what I can tell from the salary...He has two solid inside guys but one really good SG (getting paid more than the post players). Is it smart to play a 2-3 defense? or should I just stick to Man 2 Man? My team is pretty good defensively especially around the perimeter at the SG and SF positions. Opinions?

If your guards are good in passing, handling and perimeter defense, then you can try 2-3 zone. Passing being the most valued skill here cause Look inside gives importance to passing very much. Decent ID is required, too.

In Look inside SG shouldn't shine so I think you shouldn't fear his 10k SG. You have to stop his PF if he's playing Look inside. PF gets the most boost from LI. It's advisable that your PF has some guard skills and pretty strong def and rebounding.
