I'm hoping that by running a zone it that it would make up alittle for the lack of ID. Does OD have any effect on DR? I remember this American manager named SM that was really successful in the NBBA. He won two cups and the NBBA once. He didn't invest in ID at all. The highest ID he had on a player was 10. He was able to do this because he had tons of OD. When I get in higher division I plan on loading up on OD as well.

So you are saying I'm going to need a bunch of OD in order for this experiment to work? By running a 3-2 wouldn't that put even more pressure on the guards forcing them to make bad passes which would result in a not so good shot making it more likely to get blocked. I really never understood how DR and PA worked in the GE.

My experiences in the past with 3-2 zones, are that the other team always finds a way to match-up their shots/passes mostly against your weakest OD of the 3 defenders.

Same for 2-3 zone. They always attack the weakest one.

I think a bigger problem there is that you were only putting up Prominent outside scoring.

Yeah I don't think defense was your problem there. You guys both played a fast paced offense and you held him to 94 and a fairly low shooting percentage. I think the 2-3 Zone actually helped you. I attribute zone defenses as one of the main reasons I've been able to climb the ranks as fast as I have.
