The SB has not so important role like IS, ID, RB, or do you think in another way?

Do you rather have a player with IS 19 and SB 7, or a player with IS 12 and SB 14? Its an easy choice I think.

If you have a strong ID your player don't need to block the shoot, he can defend normal and don't let the offensive player to score.

What I'm trying to say, 2-3 zone should be much more efficiently vs Inside Tactics.. need higher ratings than now in your ID.

This is where we hold them!

Shot Blocking is the future.
Managers in BB need an urgent change of mind.

I think you're missing what I'm trying to say here.

What you are arguing is exactly how most BB managers think right now. Myself included.

What the BB's have been trying to tell us recently is that everyone has been thinking somewhat incorrectly and building too many similar bigs with high IS and low SB, and this is why 2-3 appears to be broken and LI appears to be unstoppable.

I'm not the judge, I'm just the messenger.

It's not low for the current school of thought, but I'm willing to bet that it's lower than the IS, IS and RB on every one of your bigs?

So how would you expect your 9-11 SB to stop the 17-20 IS of your opponents when you play 2-3 zone? I'm guessing thats the problem that the BB's have identified that has been completely ignored by the users for the past 21 seasons.

Hmm I expect that my 19-20 ID stop the 17-20 IS of my opponent.

So now is m2m better function then 2-3 vs LI... Make the 2-3 zone stronger, that's what they need to do.

This is where we hold them!

9-11 is really low. You can compare it to 9-11 on JS for guard or PS for playmakers. Especially that SB level is too low if those players are playing againts IS over 15. The problem is that nobody even think about reducing IS in their players, because it's well-known that's so important. What if SB is even more important than IS? If we take a look at guards we can see that defense is cheaper than attack. That's we can see players with OD 18+ in NTs and B3 and they stop high JS. With SB could be the same thing. SB 18+ may stop high IS. Defence is cheaper than attack, but... nobody trains it :)

This is getting a little frustrating. I've already stated that my thought process is exactly like yours. I play LI and I look for players that fit that mold including those with low SB myself.

I'm only trying to relay what the BB's have stated would fix SB and the 2-3 zone. And the point I've tried to make previously is that the theory is extremely difficult to even test out because almost every big man on the market is built to thrive in the LI offense and has low SB. I can't even tell you if it will actually work, I'm just saying what the BB's have said.

I already said this before, I would rather see the BB's adjust both the LI offense and the 2-3 zone. It would improve the game.

I got you Beener
they have already said that SB is needed to stop LI
but the earlier argument was that:
"Well, I have ID and play 2-3"
Hello!
Not enough, you need SB too!

The other argument is that:
Training SB pushes salary and caps player quicker.
However...skill pop effects from training website for C:
SB is roughly half the salary pop and the same for points leading to capping purposes.
