"Big Man" Challenge Help?

Yeah, that one was a pain in the *** for me.

I managed to win when I played 2-3 zone and doubled on the perimeter (Robinson had like 12 tunovers). I also was losing by 4 with a minute on the clock and did a hack-a-dwight and it worked just fine, haha.

I also think Anthony Morrow put up a bunch of points from 3 for me.

This.

I just used all quick players and the best rebounders I had. Albeit I used some very good players. Milsap, Aldridge, Cummings....so they didnt out rebound me. I ran 2-3 also and double teamed the ball handler (David Robinson) and either forced turnovers or last second 3's. The key is to get out in transition, they cant keep up. The only guy that could hit jumpers for them was Love. If you are playing this before you accumulated gold players, then a guy like Reggie Evans will be a huge help to you.

I pulled some packs and worked the auction block and I managed to aquire Patrick Beverly, MO Williams, Ben Mclemore, Z-Bo, and Marc Gasol.

Obviously I know I can't use Gasol in the challenge, but I'm thinking the lineup of Beverely, Mclemore, rookie Durant, Mirotic, and Randolph will do me well. I'm thinking Z-Bo's rebounding and Beverley defense should put me over just enough to beat the legends.
