short stretches


This is the key. m2m, even 3-2 may work the hole game. but 2-3 I've only seen it work when I play basket with friends, who are no Steve Kerr from the three point line and we always get the edge on rebs. ;)



a good 2-3 could also protect the perimeter good enough, i believe syracuse is a pretty good example how it could be, that is maybe rare and extrem but ain't that all strategies here? I mean, motion offense looks for a layup after cut first(if i remember right) and even when it end up in many long distance shot it is far more balanced ... And in my eyes, this should coun't for all tactics here(guards punishing help D in the corner with inside tactics). But it is also good, since it makes strategy possible, or at least better visible here ;)

maybe another example of a working 2-3:
(17970)



but know will come eternal 2-3 non belivers and say: it's not because of zone. it's because of Deutschland U21 foul trouble... ;)


p.s. this obviously is the case when m2m def would mean lost game..

NCAA is semi pro basket to me, sorry. I don't mean to dimisnish it, but their game tactics are random or pedictable for my taste.

Hey, didn't Pitino made FCP work? Didn't he get fired n the NBA for trying to win using FCP???

on college level you have to separate big and small programms, since the small one often fail to recruite good big men prospects. Syracuse is quite big, and play quite well with other big programms.

by the way, the quality of game there, should be far above the normal playgrounds ;) And also dallas played a lot of 2-3 during the POs, and not only minor stretches.

But yes it is semi pro, since the enviroment and many players are pro level, but the player didn't get paid.

foul trouble also comes with beeing behind at the end, also most NT roster are quite deep.

The NCAA has many levels of competition, there are Programs and there are... well... you know beter than me. ;)

I'm not in the train of 2-3 doesn't ever work. it does, but you have to have a great roster and be a very good scout. For example, most teams in my league are more outside oriented on offense than in most leagues, so playing 2-3 would be a suicide.-

i agree with you on that, if you are right and choose the 2-3 you have a slight advantage over a man to man defence, but if you are wrong the disadvantage is pretty huge.

pretty unlucky game, which also shows the disadvantages of 2-3 when the opponent don't play look inside or low post ... even hen i think that you still should win the majority of the games
