id like them to fix the broken tactics they have got before releasing more broken tactics :)

and 2-3 does do something , it packs your bags early for you in most cases.

You are right! 2-3 zone does have a use! If your starters have played too many minutes in the first game then you can run a 2-3 zone and in the second half after the game has turned into a blowout instead of a close match if you had played man to man they can sit on the bench and rest.

isn't a win with a blowout better then a close match? While is it then impossible to beat a slightly better opponent, through the advantegeous tactical choiche?

I remember being interested in it and especially as I had read a book about it only about a year before I went. However at the time it was VERY difficult to get to. Ranked #93 of things to do in Iran by Lonely Planet travellers so it must be possible now. However this was part of the current getting there description:

However, the castle of Alamut, one of the most famous of all, is nowaday more or less accessible by 4wd in dry weather, if one can find a guide or driver in Qazvin willing and able to take you there.


Even getting to Qazvin wasn't so easy back when I visited.

I think you misunderstand. My scenario assumes you 100% know your opponent will play look inside. Then there is no correct tactical choice except for man to man. But if you know you will lose anyway because they have a much better team than you, then you can manage your minutes by playing a 2-3 zone instead of man to man turning a 20 point loss into a 50 point loss and ensuring your starters only play about 25 minutes - great for game shape management. It was humour.

and far off from game mechanics, and by the way i think with a solid team you bring it from -20 to -15.

Not really sure what you mean by this comment, however I had a look at your team. You are in one of the toughest leagues in the world and have probably the best team in your nation. You are a brilliant manager and have been incredibly successful. So what is your favourite tactic? Surprise, Look inside. End of story!

which don't mean i didn't play motion from time to time, and that i think 2-3 makes everything worse(shouldn't be a surprise too). I just say that it is pretty risky to play it, when your opponent don't play like expected.

Whereas I say it is risky to play it when your opponent does play like expected. You grab a slightly hiher % of rebounds but that doesn't matter because they hit a very high % of their outside shots.
