I think zones will indeed keep producing more blocks. But I'm not sure if the 3-2 zone will produce more blocks than the 2-3 zone before I see evidence of this.

Your last game is not very useful.

Still waiting for them news to draw some conclusions.

My two cents on the subject.

The thread, if not anything else, raises the issue of community uncertainty over the new GE and shot block changes.
Sorry but its Game 2 of the season and we still have nothing but unofficial GM's' confirmation that the new GE in functioning. We thank them for that, but we still don't know how the engine works, hence all the arguing.

Yes, the sample is minimal, non existent really. But even if we had 20 competitive games under our belt with the new GE, without BB clarifications about it, it would be very risky drawing conclusions.
This is because, we still wouldn't know, which areas of the game its supposed to affect.

1)Is it just the blocking(purely in averages) department?

2)Are post shots going to be altered more as well and 2pt percentages drop significally for those teams unprepared and insisting in previous tactics and/or set ups, against good shotblocking bigs?

3) Could the design be, for them inside focused teams, being forced to shoot more 3pointers in order to avoid raise in blocks and alterations?

So, come on BBs, end our nerves and anxiety!

Well, I was doing my own research and my 1st game I ran a 2-3 zone against a LI and I only blocked 2 shots...(59645499)

Tonight I ran a 3-2 zone against and I blocked 7 shots...(59645507)

I will be running zones all season just to see what happens...but I agree with everyone...2 games isn't enough data.

Today my rookie who has a whooping "3" in SB, almost broke the league record. I LOVE IT!

And he went 2-2 from the three point line. Clearly they've over-boosted outside shooting to arcade levels. This is awesome!
