El hilo: Inside/outside box and 1

Guys, why do you start new discussions about already clear things every couple of months?
Before the game, the engine takes both teams. It calculates, based on the skills, who is the best offense player and who is the best defense player. Nothing more and nothing less. The defense player isn't the guy with the highest OD or ID, it's the player with the highest overall defense. And that's the one who has the best OD+ID+SB+ST rating. For a lot of teams it's the SF or PF.
This defender will play against the best engine calculated offense player. Based on the defense power of the +1, there are three possible outcomes:
1) the defender sucks and the offense guy will score like he wants
2) defense and offense are equal and the offense player will have problems, but will be still one of the dominant players
3) the defender is a beast and shuts the offense player down
If 3) is the case, the engine will switch to another scoring option. So it can happen, that your +1 defender plays against a guy who takes only five or six shots during the whole game. The reason for this is his high defense.
The other four guys will play with their box against the offense of the opponent. And the engine will decide who is the new scoring option. So the guy who takes most of the shots is only scoring option nr. 2 in reality.
And there is more stuff to the boxes than I don't want to reveal. :D I have to be sure that I still have some advantages left for my own teams and the german NT. (j)
So if the best overall defender will guard the best offensive player, what's the difference between box in the perimeter and box inside?
The difference is that with one box your defender will guard the best Guard, and with the otehr one the best Big.
the +1 will guard only the outside/inside shots depending on the box choice?
No, he will defend all the shots of his opponent. It doesn't matter if it's a 3pt or a dunk.
if the offensive player is a SG and your +1 is also a SG with 20 OD (a match in favor of the defense), what will be the difference between the box defenses?
The difference is that with one box, your SG with OD will defend the SG and with the other one he will defend the PF or C (best inside player).
I never said that with inside box +1 the best inside player will be guarded, did I?
I just said that in one defense your best defender will guard the best guard and in the other one the best big.
During the last weeks, even before this thread started, we discussed and analized games in my federation. We came to some interessting conclusions. Like some time ago when I took a lock at 3-2 ;-)
the thing is, all the shots by the SG were guarded by my PF, 22 shots all checked
Yes, that's because the two boxes are switched... or the manual text is wrong.
I already reported it to Marin several weeks ago. From my data, the manual is wrong about the two boxes.
It works like this (my opinion):
Inside box+1:
Best defender defends the best outside scorer and the box moves to the paint.
Outside box+1:
Best defender defends the best inside scorer and the box moves to the perimeter.
You played an Inside box+1. So for me, it's no suprise that your PF defended his SG. I have more such games listed in my fed. We made some tests this season.
