Pretty much. I don't blame anyone for running LI as there only or main offense, but I do like to play Managers who have a bit of creativity.

Nothing I like more than having an oponent that always plays the same tactic, jojo (evil laughter like Skeletor or The Joker inserted here)

LOL, me to but with LI you can play the same way all the time with far less chance of being hurt by it.
Motion all the time can be slowed rapidly by the 3-2 zone as where 2-3 zone allows the Guards way too much time to move the Ball, as pressure on the Handlers is reduced too much. So your left with M2M as the best Defense.
My thoughts at least

Agreed. 2-3 would do the trick if that team has terrible guards or the oustisde top scorer is injured. Hey, don't even remember the last time I play 2-3, jeje

What I really really really really really really really really love is to have such a great roster that you can play waht you want. Eventually I'll do it!!

I like the idea of a 4 at the 3 or even a 5 at the 3, as long as he can Defend outside, & run M2M. The only advantage of running that same idea with 2-3 zone is you'll get the Rebounding advantage on the Defensive end, but also the Offensive end as well. Problem though with that is, again, the reduced pressure on Ball handlers.

Honestly? I analyze more based on stats, rating and results than offensive tactics of my rivals. For the record, my Skeletor comment wasn't very serious. =)

I'd go with m2m and select the defenders according to the matchup -even switching positions-, mainly because most of the teams I faced are outside attackers, especially the top teams, who happen to have post players that are more rebounders than scorers. The moment I face any opponent that attack inside more than 3 games a year, I´ll let you know... And probably seek your advice!!

About motion, 3-2 should do the trick... except when you face teams that (guess) have post players who happen to be great rebounders. That's a huge advantage to give away.

I would still prefer playing m2m against either motion or LI.

Against LI I agree, but if I can count on Motion or RnG I'd go 3-2 zone, as long as I had the Rebounding covered against my opponent.
