Everything being equal - What do you guys think would be the best defense against RNG - would it be 3/2 or man to man ? From my own teams experience I notice when I play RNG that I take more 3pt shots than normal but I would love to hear others experience. Thank you

3-2 or 1-3-1 would be your best options against RnG. RnG is a fast paced outside focused strategy so thats why they would take more 3pt shots than normal.

Well if you play 3-2 zone then you put more pressure outside, but at the same time you have 1 less player to rebound. So you can make more stops, but if they get the offensive rebound then it will not make such a deference dont you think? Thats the risk with 3-2

The risk is even greater with 1-3-1 leaving really only 1 guy for rebounding.

Thank you for your experiences against RnG. I agree that 3/2 is probably the way to go but I will have to check my opponents rebounding skill and if it is much higher then I will just try my best with Man to Man.
