I dont know if I understand what you mean, but my question is this:

How is it realistic that a player can be a tremendous inside defender but a pitiful shot blocker? Have any one ever encountered such a player in real life?

Yeah, that's probably one of the main reasons why is it easier to build a LI team then a Motion, R&G or Patient team. Or a team for any other tactic for that matter. However, if in the future a team comes and wins B3 with a non-inside tactic, it will probably revolutionize the training. Especially if that team will dispatch LI-based tames easily. I don't see it in foreseeable future though.

The biggest problem is the time needed to build such a team. I have an idea on how to do it and still keeping your starting five's salary under 1M, but it takes time.

Well I'll give you some food for thought...

MVP with very low sublevel is enough for him. He plays like champ on SF, PF or C spot and defends opposing PGs / SGs. Salary: a bit over 100k. Tough to train? Only IS. Other than that, he's a regular guard. Only weakness: RB in offense.

I think we are so caught in this LI-LP loop and how to defend it that we stopped thinking outside the box.

Put two of these on SF and PF and play Outisde isolation or R&G.
Put one of these on PF and play Patient.
Put two of these on PF and C and play Look inside.

Best PFs have OD starting at 10-12, so HA always come...handy.

Aynway, it's an idea me and my friend had and he is building a team like this (he started with SF though) and I'm mentoring him. I won't disclose skills of his future guards, but the analogy with the player above is the same (switch positions).

If you think that player is trash, that's ok with me. Just don't say nobody is trying anything different.
