This is how it works.

Inside Box and One - 4 players stand near the painted area/free-throw area, and the best defender among the PG/SG/SF, locks down the best perimeter shooter of the opposing team. Best use against Look Inside/Low Post. Teams that rely heavily on their Cutters/Slashers (Driving), Post up players (Inside Shot), and Jump shooters (Jump Shot).

Outside Box and One - 4 players stand near arc/3pt. line, and the better defender between PF and C will protect the shaded area. Best use against Motion/Run and Gun. Teams that rely heavily on their outside shooters with PF as a stretch 4.

Been little busy but Won my game, by one point, back in Tuesday. Despite opponent playing run n gun, not patient as i expected. Maybe they read the forums as well but was willing to take the risk with that.

I went through the play by play, focusing on who defended shots and where. I will try to find time tomorrow to post my notes here in some sort of rreadaple form.. :D

Hi,

Like I said, you can only use this if the opposing team has an outside shooting PF (Kevin Love as reference), and with poor inside scoring as a team. Your team will form a box closer to the 3pt. line. And one man from your team will focus inside for cutters (mainly) of the opposing team.

The manual is incorrect.

Imagine this;

Inside Box and One: 4 players form a box that focuses inside and 1 player also focuses inside? It's gonna rain 3-pointers on opposing side.

Outside Box and One: 4 players form a box near the 3pt. line and 1 player also focuses outside? Lay-ups, and Alley-oops all game long.

Rarely used in real life. But you can use this type of defense in BB. Try scouting your opponent's schedule, past matches. If you see a huge gap between their outside and inside scoring (outside as main option to score), then use this defense if you're confident with your PF or C defensive skills. Whether they're using Base Offense, Patient, and/or Run and Gun.
