The tactics section in the rules say 3-2 Zone: Increased perimeter defense at the expense of interior defense. Slow pace.

I have noticed that rebounding seems to take a hefty hit along with interior defence.

Thoughts?

I've noticed the same thing, and decided pressure training would be way more effective at shutting down opposing skill players than 3-2. Maybe if you have like proficient or better rebounding on your entire front court it might be different, but I've had some bad experiences with 3-2.

Depends on what you are comparing it too. If you compare the rebounding with a 2-3 zone, it will take a hit yes, but when you compare it with a mtm not.

I think rebounding is better in Man-to-Man that 3-2 zone.

3-2 Zone does lessen rebounding compared to a Man To Man defense.

Perhaps the wording should be changed in the rule section.

I agree that it should be changed.

maybe Higher exterior concentration at the expense of interior concentration.

the final team rating is still more varied when combined with different offensive tactics...

when you play any offense with 2-3 you can to a certain degree predict your RB & ID ratings... when you play Motion / Run & Gun / Look Inside with 3-2 you get allsorts of final ratings and I still dont understand why they finish off being worse than if you instructed Man to man..... Im referring here to OD ratings as when i can achieve respectable with Man to Man I then had a Average medium (with near as dammit players / GS etc) when defending 3-2 shortly after.


Again the difference between 2-3 and man to man is a lot easier to forecast.
