That is understandable. But still, my point is that playing off ball allows you defend multiple things opposed to off ball defense which is focused on one person. It's easier to stand in one spot and guard the basket, your man who's by the basket and anybody cutting near the basket opposed to guarding the player with the ball who can pass, shoot or dribble to score. That's all I'm saying
