How to play against off-ball players?

[wrestlinggod1]

I'm playing against my brother. He picks the Heat and plays off-ball D with Ilgauskus or Bosh. EVERY possession he does that. What can I do to counter this? It's really annoying when he waits right outside the paint to try and block the ball when I drive. Any suggestions for sliders or anything?

Don't worry about it and just play ball?

Or, if you must try to expose him, constantly post up and make your bigmen cut to the hoop.

If he's better off-ball than the CPU and the CPU is better than him on-ball, there's really nothing you can do to counter.

Guess you could drop his On Ball D slider, so you could slip by the CPU controlled perimeter defender easily and force him to big Z or Bosh over on help leaving a man open?

Pass out of the double team to an open player?

Pick and Roll - lead pass the big man.

Pick and Roll is a good option, also drive and kick. Do not also try to score the layup, pull the defense into you then kick to the open man. Also you can run the offense through the big, even if you dont shoot the ball with a big often up post up you may be able to draw a double team then kick to the open man

Also, what would be a good team to play with to counter this?
