Is abusing weaknesses cheesing?

[coached17]

Definitely NOT cheesing....you were playing real basketball and using real basketball strategies. Attacking a player on the defensive end who can't guard is position is hardly cheese.

It's a way to combat his small-ball 3PT strategy....which is NOT cheese either. Unless he's getting those 3s by zig-zagging.

I laugh when people start claiming that shooting a lot of 3s is "cheese". I guess those who mention it haven't watched an NBA game recently. Teams shoot more 3s than ever before...and more and more teams are starting to do it.

Back to your game...instead of CRYING that guy should have tried some things on DEFENSE. I don't know....like double teaming or playing zone....or changing his defensive match ups so that he had better match ups on his end.

Other than that, he was good.

Thanks. I am enjoying the same in Onyx Nash. I know you may be biased based on name/sig but how's VC? Have 200-300k to play with and will either get the Hakeem Sapphire set or maybe Vince. Have Diamond KD/Lebron.

Just get Hakeem, VC is basically the same player as the free 'Nique.

Even though I'm a VC fanboy, I would have to agree.

He's not that much different from Ruby Frobe as well. For the price, I would get Ruby Frobe for SG instead.

Hakeem is awesome though. A good mix of offence and defence. I would definitely recommend him.

You might be able to get both though after selling the collection back.

Not cheese at all, just smart basketball. Cheese, imo, are things like zigzag, unstoppable reverse baseline dunks and off ball defense.

Good looks. Will just get the Hakeem collection and keep the resell for the next good Onyx.

When i first got onyx Big O a few months ago, I didnt really like him and always screwed up his release, but after Ive learned his release hes been amazing. Every game I usually put up 20+ with him plus hes perfect for posting up and fading over smaller point guards, hes also a good finisher and grabs a decent amount of boards every game and hes an excellent defender. Definitely best point guard in the game

It got to the point where Curry couldn't stay on the floor because he had no stamina. And the guy cried that I was cheesing, whether I drove the lane, shot a 3, or a postmove/mid range. I guess scoring at all is cheesing. But seriously if a guy wants to abuse Curry is it cheesing to take Curry to the post every time.

Absolutely not. This is just smart basketball
