One of the main tendency today when playing strong 3-2 zone defense is to have the bigs with high ID + Block with lower IS and RB, but also have high Passing that can help on offense to contribute more and not to take many shots (with relatively lower IS)
This one also worth to consider.

Well,

I can only share my experience from my championship run when I won our Div I. and in that season with my team my highest RB was 14 and then pretty much 8-9 with the other players.
I already mentioned a few posts back that I managed to won my Div I league with a "low budget team" and it was a kind of experimentation as well, because many managers were sceptic.
My team salary was 100k less then the average of my league and I finished 20-2 with best defense, best FG%, best in pretty much every category, except RB which was a big observation/feedback that I did not need to achieve this.
AS mentioned earlier I had a tailored made team where salary was one of the primary consideration.
I did not have 150 or even 100+k salary players. My highest was 98k then all the rest around and in between 70-35.

It was a great experience and showed me that you do not need "everything" to be able to win.
So all in all from my side, based on my experience I was happy to sacrifice RB and it turned out that it was not a problem at all.

Hey, I trained my bigs this way. I am still training them, but they are close to finish line. You can check my games from this and last season. Send me a bb-mail if you want to learn more about my players, and your questions for your players + tactics.

A 3-2 zone and SB team just won against former B3 champ! (112997229)

Gratz to your Win against the former B3 Champ sir... Ive been following the thread on Shot Blocking's importance... and I am training Rookie to be future Bigs... and I currently am thinking to punt the Shot blocking skill... If ever you don't mind I would like to ask if you would only permit me sir to see Mikhaylov and Kezer skill set distribution on Def, Block, Reb? tyvm

Hi,

It's anecdotal, but more SB may lead to more fouling: while more ID will typically force worse shots (farther from the basket, more difficult type of shots), more SB will attempt to stop the shot after distance/type of shot etc. Is determined

Is this proven? Is there a tangible data to state this?
I`m asking because I see a huge and still growing tendency nowadays to get more SB also more and more team and trying to make the set up for the 3-2 zone.
So it would be very useful and strong information to really deep dive to understand this potential foul problem.
