1.) hard to figuring out the effect, it runs well for a long time without it(OD 4) for me but actually i got a Center who rotates to PF in defence with lot of OD(9) and i make an impressive run in the league(ok my schedule with easy away matches also play a role there).
So i would say good to have, but at least not so dramatic if you haven't it.
2.)
(6877080) - this is the guy 1 steal is not bad but also not dramatic. The last time i tested the press defence was with a SF with OD 13 on PF, and i just get 5 steals more then he averaging normaly(often against 2-3 Zones).
Another reason i won't play press is that games mostly run like that ->
(23028825) when you use the FCP. He gives me easy scoring oppurtunitys, and nearly extra 20 off Rebounds(he made a lot against my mtm so you could believe he was superior in this area). In the end a close game, become an very easy win for me :)
It is off topic, but personally when you try to force steals i would go for a 1-3-1 Zone which i like to test more often, especially because of this big guy. my first and only test runs pretty well, but i was superior to my opposition anyway but the pp100s was very low(
(22964875))
Edit: added the OD values of the important players.
