talking from experience of others' - i've been told that even your C can be the +1 defender in OUTSIDE BOX. crazy stuff haha

Yes, because if you place an all defense player on C, he will be the best solution.
When I did the tests with both boxes, Haek was always the +1 defender. He had OD 18, ID 18 and SB 18, so he was option 1, no matter which box and which position.

Than you so much Alonso and Nachtmahr.

So if the +1 is decided only by skills, that means (as BB-Justin said I think) the best defensive player will be selected regarding his position on court, but the formula will change a bit between if you selected outside +1 or inside +1, having more impact on the first one the OD, and ID on the second one.
To sum up, you only choose who you want to take the most defensive responsability, right? It doesn't matter if the oposing team play inside or outside, the GE will choose "the best offensive" player in that tactic and your job is to choose which +1 is going to defend him (in case you clearly have different build defensive players).

Maybe I still don't comprehend it 100%...

Is that so? I'm not that sure

And another question that popped in my head is... does GS affect in order to choose who is that +1?

Since matching your best defender with the best attacker makes all the sense, while the rest play a man-to-man defense, why would you ever choose man-to-man over a box?

I.e. wouldn't box defenses completely render man-to-man useless?

No, the other 4 form a "box" with 2 players around the basket and two further away - imagine 3-2 zone, but instead of 3-2 it is 2-2 sort of. That's how I interpret this tactic (and I used this tactic A LOT over the past 3-4 seasons).
