I'd play fast, but you'll ned a decent bench and a good ballhandler.

My bench for outside players are almost as good as my starters..Is it better to play with a PG with better handling or passing?

in this case handling, but both are very important.
OD needs to be good, too!!

I'm going to differ with the trend in this thread and suggest a slower offense. FCP severely destroys the defensive ratings and if they don't steal the ball, you'll likely be able to get a much higher quality shot. Playing fast basically throws away that advantage.

I actually think both slow and fast tactics can work against FCP - but it depends on he structure of your team.

If your players have good stamina and/or good backups, fast paced tactics can work well against FCP. That's particularly true if you also have bad offensive flow - you definitely don't want to pass the rock too much in these cases.

If your players don't have that much stamina, playing it slow and trying to reduce the number of possessions is crucial. However, in that case, great ball movement is absolutely necessary or you'll lose the ball too often.

3-2 or 1-3-1, depending on your OD and Rebounding. The safe bet is 3-2 zone though.
