What do you think of the 1-3-1 Zone Defense in NBA 2k13? Would you like to see it in 2k14, and in the future NBA 2k games? Or, would you prefer 1-3-1 defense removed from the series entirely? Post your thoughts.

NBA is majority man with the occasional 2-3 zone 3-2 zone.

I've only seen a few teams run other zones.

95-98 Bulls ran a man with Pippen playing the passing lanes.

2011 Mavs ran something like a box and 1 against the Heat in the finals.

They don't have to remove anything. Just improve the spacing and people will stop using the zones as their go to defense.

1-3-1 most overpowerd zone in the game too easy to sit in it playing off ball but id just like to have it vastly improved in 2k14 instead of completely getting rid of it

Get rid. It's just another tool used by game exploiters and cheesers.

Agreed, no need to remove ... also, we need improved pass speed and faster catching animations too, good ball movement shouldnt be beaten by scrambling out of position defenders, nor should slow animations give unfair advantage to defense.

Also, given how Live is claiming to offer signature team defenses, once spacing and the above request of passing and catching are addressed, I would love 2k to add some of the current team defensive sets/schemes.

We certaintly need a huge improvement on defense but not like currently implemented (in 2k13) and I am all in for always having more options, never less, so I dont endorse removal of things, rather improvements and fixes.

Do teams use this defense in the league?
How often is it used?
This game is supposed to recreate what happens in the league.
If it's not in the game, then remove it from the game.

Now, that's a slogan!
