@champwinder nope, you just aren't good at it. :)

i play 1-3-1 alot, but i dont need to double team to get the same effect. I just guard the corners and let the computer guard the middle. Double teaming can work on mediocre players, but masters will eat it alive with skip passes and good outside shooting. It will be effective against people who pound the ball with superstars.

If your playing with your power foward and your center is moving around, then wouldn't that destroy you on offensive rebounds.

It's funny I can be in the middle of a game and the person I'm playing just starts using this defense and I start getting open shots but the problem is thats when I start missing them I can be 100% for three but once people start using this I just throw up bricks I don't know if it's just me but it's so frustrating and cheap.

[qwertdeekay]

it is a good defense but you get so much wide open 3's

This works really well against Bad Players. But that is all.

Easy To Beat Simply Spread Your O .. Iso .. but your gonna have to catch and shoot

[Gengstaboy978]

lol its funny because the computer play offense they could almost evrytime find the open man when you double team and make the sure shot

[justasijus]

Can anyone tell me why I can't double team like him when I am in 1 3 1 zone? I have sliders to the max and they do shit. Never double team. I can't even dt manually.
