Best defensive strategies

In teaching kids how to play defence, the principles learnt in playing plan to man enable them to employ any other form of defence.

Teach them young to play man to man so they learn the principles, and then teach them the other strategies (such as press, zone etc) is my mantra.

It depends on so many factors, Who is playing, How the opponents offence is structured, Who is hot on the offensive end, Which defensive players you have on the court plus lots of other things, the question is really unanswerable. You need to be able to mix up your defense to be a very good defensive team.

in fantasy probably man to man for me. My team is built around one on one players beating their man.

eg. this week:

C Nevill vs Trueman
PF Redhage (double/captain) vs Knight (double/capt)
SF Wagstaff (double) vs Lazare
SG Ervin vs Crawford
PG Wilson vs Jackson

Bench
Loughton vs Greer
Hire (double) vs Hill
Walker vs Garlepp

Should win all of those matchups 1v1, evcept the jackson one at PG, but Wilson has been dominating lately anyway. Any the PF/Capt is even, so Im hoping for a 20-30 pt win

Pioneers beat Under 20s last night by about 30 pts in Millicent. Pioneers has new import point guard Jim Cochran on show and he was pretty impressive. He's tiny but very quick and can shoot from perimeter. Will b a very exciting player to watch.
Under 20s were pretty disappointing. Been watching Under 20s for a few years and this team really looked like they might struggle. Majority of the team need to add a few pounds. McGinty and Harvey were the only ones to really challenge the Pioneers. McMath tried but couldnt get anywhere against the bigger more experienced PIoneers.
For Pioneers Daniel Peacock outplayed all of the Under 20s (a team he couldnt make). They could have definately done with him.
For Pioneers a very positive night. Team looking better and better every training and game.
