This was offline, but I try to play both. I have tried to dribble and work a better shooting position but sometimes it feels like I am controlling my player and the defender at the same time. Its like they move together like a shadow. If I dribble too close the defender just walks away with the ball like I'm not even there.
I would like to play online more but it seems like everyone online plays that high pressure defense crap. It just not fun playing against that in every game. But then again I know the only way to get better is to practice.
Thank you all for the suggestions. I will work on that and hopefully break out of this rut that I am in.
