Too much Joseph Montoya. Here's what you need to set your default lineup to:

PG:  Kartlos Skhirtladze
SG:  Jessie Dexter
SF:  Orville Hunt
PF:  Lucky Fan
C:   greek god "Dodge" Stratis Dialektos

As for offenses, this gives you a lot of options. Pick 1 of the following:
Option #A -- You can play patient & clear everyone out, letting Kartlos dominate 1on1.
Letter 2 -- Go with low post & have Kartlos use his superior passing to feed the rock to the lucky fan.
D -- Take them to school (Princeton) & let Kartlos dominate with his superior intellect & basketball IQ.

Defense:
With an offense this potent (1 word: Kartlos Skhirtladze), you might want to increase the # of possessions. In that case FCP would be ideal. Or you could Inside Box and One, putting your Lucky Fan on their best inside scorer, baiting them into quick shots.

Hope this helps.

Well, that was an embarrassing loss. I underestimated my opponent’s guards, probably because I was too worried about my Game Shape for next week (which will still probably suck). I could have used the extra $50k per week too. Oh well, live and learn, but man, that was awful.

I really don’t know what I was thinking. I should have just went with my starters and squashed him…kind of like Shock Wave squashed this D-IV loser: (15098281) (I CT'd him, lol).

Damn I can't believe you sold Uri Lugo! That guy had more swag and more soul than the rest of the league combined. The hair! The sideburns! The name! Gahhhh!

Well, it was a hard decision to cut that much soul. But he was never going to play and he's a lot more expensive than Ilmar.

Took me awhile to figure out that was way back in season 9. Too bad I lost the next week.

How are you competing in games with 2-3 against outside offenses? It boggles the mind.

Ancient Chinese secret! You're probably too young to get that.

Actually, I have two reasons why. First, I tend to play my better outside defenders when I play 2-3 and second, outside shooting has been overrated since the update. When I started in season 2/3, my plan was to build from the inside out but I noticed that run and gun and outside shooting was dominating many of the games so I switch to an outside shooting team. Then the update hit and it seem to change that.
Or it could be that it I'm playing against better defenses now and it has all been luck.
