Is this cheesing?

Apparently playing Ray Allen at point guard, using my center on defense and shooting hop step jumpers is cheesing. Considering all I do the whole game is look for open jump shots, I would say that dude was just salty I beat him.

Yea I don't believe in the word "cheesing" bc in real life u can't tell somebody how to play or which lineup to use, each person is there own coach and if an opponent can't stop whatever your play is then they need to go back to the drawing board

Well of course, but in real life you're able to stop them.

In game however, you (OP) are using exploits that almost 100% of the time lets the ball go in the hoop.

Ray Allen has played POINT in his career. Ive seen Reggie Miller play point as well.

A good Guard is a good GUARD even if his abilities are focused toward scoring.

When someone does a switch like that its so obvious that your looking to score at the 1 position its easy to adjust the defensive assignments. U can either have your PG defend Allen or just have the SG assigned to him. Its not a Cheese tactic IMO.

1. Who played SG then?
2. Why wouldn't you use Rondo in this game? lol he's amazing
3. What does a "hop step jumper" mean?

I'm with the guy above, Rondo is too good in this game to waste playing Ray at the point. Hell, even Nate is serviceable in this game as the backup. Back on topic though, i'm assuming you are saying you play off-ball defense with the center. None of those things you mentioned are cheese, the hop step moves in the paint through defenders are cheese moves if continually exploited, but no i wouldn't say so

Where you press triangle and he he hops back, probably gave it the wrong name. I actually rotate between using Rondo, Von Wafer and Nate Robinson as my other guard. Von Wafer had the hot hand that game, so I kept him in. I shoot mostly jumpers so I find Rondo as a liability on offense. So regardless of how you guys feel, He doesn't fit my play style and my rotation clearly works for me online -- my online record is 63-16 (using the Celtics mostly).

so let me get this straight, I shoot jumpshots 90% of the time, yet I'm somehow using exploits that let these 15 to 23 ft jumpers magically go into the basket.
