I think box and one will be very difficult to play among good level teams,because I don't think that these teams have only one really good offensive option,so it could be few the times that this tactic would be effective(mainly against isolation with teams that have one really good offensive options,definitively not good teams)

I don't really agree that the top of the key is the best place to run an isolation play. I think that, in general, isolation is run from one of the two wing spots so that the player has more of the court to work with. Iverson's offense was never isolation, it was just The Answer going 1-on-5. Don't know about Lebron. Haven't seen him play yet.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

The part about Iverson was mostly a joke, although I have never seen any player go 1-on-whoever as often as #3.

I can see the new tactics finally available for Thursday scrimmages. Any idea who is the M2M defender in Box and One defensive tactic? The player with highest OD on the roster?

Another question: What if your best defender is a "fouler player"? I mean, if he is a more "physical player" and his foul's average is high?

You have much more trouble using box and one,since you have an higher risk that your better defender will go out of the game soon
To be fair, the more precise term is physical player (instead of fouler). If the best offensive player is guarding this physical defender he will also have some problems in that scenario because "More physical players will tend to both draw and commit more fouls" (Malone had some troubles with Rodman). I don't know how this foul-draw works. More offensive or defensive fouls on him (or both)? I will look more closely to the behavior of my physical players in the next period :)

I believe that "physical" was a more elegant way to call a player with his name,a fouler,though.
Surely it's true what BBs said about draw and commit fouls,but you feel much more the difference on the defnsive end ;D
