I generally don't have much of a problem stopping the regular left right zigzag along the 3 point line. It's mostly a matter of not over-committing.
That being said, there's another thing (unless it falls under the zigzag category as well) that gets me every single time --> the ballhandler making random movements and running in little mini circles, figure 8's, whatever you can think of for 10-20 seconds in the midrange (mostly, sometimes 3pt line as well) area. The worst of them even call for picks while they're doing it which makes it completely unguardable (for me). I like to think i'm a decent on ball defender but i mean during 15 seconds of that nonsense you'll get one of those animations to put you out of position eventually. And of course once that happens they have a wide open 14-17 footer.
I generally let the cheesers be but when i encounter one of these lowlifes they'll usually get a message from me. And it's obviously not the "good game" message i send to good, legit players.
But whatever, luckily they are more of an exception. I know i can just switch to off ball defense or zone to stop it but i'm stubborn...
