Good questions.

Guess who is the best scorer is not the big question, thats exactly what a zone does: people helping each other. But of course a Center wirh good rebound/indide shot combination can kill your 1-3-1 zone

If i play a 3-2, i put the best outside D at pg. (in my opinion top of the key)
BUT i am not sure how the engine counts... maybe it starts counting at PG, so the 2-guard is top of the key.

Same question for 1-3-1. The guy in the middle is the key here. Which position has the 2spot in the row? SF or PF?

For example. Let's say my sf is the best outside defender and my opponents best outside offensive player is the sg. In man to man I would put my sf to defend the sg should I do that in a zone as well or doesn't that matter at all?

If I don't remember wrongly, it won't matter. I think your opponent's SG can shoot from the left/right/center but your players will stick to their side of the zone: meaning that regardless of where you put your players, they will still somehow match up with your opponent's best shooter some time or another.
