If you go to blake's individual defensive setting screen it will have NO effect on any screen except the ones where Blake is the ballhandler. Therefore, the PNR settings of hedge and on ball screen are determined by the BALLHANDLER NOT THE ROLLMAN. You got me now DC?

This is 100% correct. This is also how i teach it in my tutorials, so there are players out there who took this the wrong way before ? That's good to know.

Using these settings Rob, were you able to get 'no hedge' to work in practice plays mode?

Let's say I want the hedge defender to stay with Griffin. (by the way, OG said that the "stay attached" setting is one to use very cautiously, and only really when a guy is killing you on pick and pop). CP3: On-Ball Screen: Hedge: On-Ball Screen (Center): Hedge (Center) Griffin: On-Ball Screen: Hedge: On-Ball Screen (Center): Hedge (Center) I feel like a lot of the confusion in these conversion is no one ever just lats out these details. I'm not picking on you, I'm talking about all of us, including OG. I think we need to get real specific on these details in all of these conversations. Until we can translate what we want to see on the court with specific players/situations with these specific details, we're going to continue to confuse ourselves and everyone else. And then when we try to tell 2k what we are seeing and they answer us, we won't even know if we are talking about the same things. I have yet to hear OG say anything as simple as, "If you want X result to play out on the floor, set Y specific settings on Z player(s) to make that happen." OG is busy and doesn't have paid time budgeted to do this kind of teaching (see my earlier point on that), but this is the level of instruction people need.

Yea DC, we did a bit of that the other night and the plan is to do A LOT more of it. You're absolutely right, the last stream was to give a base instruction.

After watching your stream i tried out all the defensive pick and roll settings and they worked in game as advertised. Tag the roller. Catch. Stay attached. Soft hedge. Appreciate all the additions. It makes the game way more basketball then any previous year. Thanks youngster. The last 3 years of giving up corner threes all game was killing me.

In practice plays its all no haps except stay attached. But, the prerotate works in practice so that is weird. My next few days will be trying to figure out ways to manipulate who prerotates and to try and control where the help ON DRIVES is coming from. That is the last step to having it all sown up.

LOL!!! appreciate that, Rob! I've got a lot of goodies planned with "how to..." etc coming soon. Understanding the tools you have combined with the schemes that you're team is runs is essential. There's still a TON of lab work to get done in these streams.

Much love to everyone who came through btw!

You figure out how to archive these yet?

[ddurrrr]

If I have ACE off and I assign individual def settings to my team will the def packages (stay home, boxes and elbows...) work if I change them on the fly or time outs during the game?

Or they only work if I have individual def settings on auto?
