Yes, ACE is off of course. Even though it is really frustrating, that I have to turn it off at the start of every game (online league player here...this bug is in this game since ACE was introduced).
My team at that point was Dellavedova-Beal-Anunoby-Aldridge-Turner. After a trade for Rudy Gobert I moved Turner to the 4 and start Gobert now at the 5. Really interested to see, how that will work out.
Interesting point of yours with swapping onball and offball coverage, I will definitely try that out. Also that you say, if my offense is bad, then the Defense will suffer, too, is really interesting. Usually I am a pretty solid defensive team, but struggle to score more than 90 points (10 min quarters) regularly, so I still end up with a positive differential over the season.
So you recommend me sticking to Sam Phams "Help and No Rotation"?
Is Turner blocking shots for you? I have on my team him since 2k17 and for the last 2 years he is just not blocking shots anymore and averages close to 1 block per game... He still is such a bad defender in the game and lacks most defensive ratings besides blocking and help defense...

I’m not a defensive expert so I’m not sure what you should do with help and no rotation.
Turner did get 7 blocks his last game. Here is the box score and you’ll find a few others over there too.

Keep in mind, i haven’t used him past the current season. I’m using a custom roster with custom sliders from miiikemarsh. The Turner I use has rim protector and defensive anchor. I think it took nearly all season for him to get those in the official roster and your roster might predate that. But all of my defensive adjustments have taken place with this roster.
I also decided to send everyone to the middle instead of baseline and manually shade people towards Turner.
The guy I’ve been playing now is just as determined to score in the paint as I am on each possession which gives me more block opportunities.
One other change I’ve made is once he's started going inside with a certain player then I use the on the fly coaching to focus on the guy I think he’s taking in to nothing inside.
Sometimes I’ll change that on the fly to a different player on the same possession.
If he notices and reads the defense though, he'll know the three might be open if I leave it that way.
I still have players walk right by Turner and the paint always seems wide open down there to me though and I can get beat up pretty bad trying to get defensive rebounds lol.
I'm not sure how people do this but most people I play end up camping defenders in the lane which I never seem to be able to do even if I am set to gap on some of the players. So I've had more success stopping an individual player from scoring in the paint than from doing it versus the whole team.
And if the guy I'm playing turns up his defense, then I still have problems.
