[QUOTE="BokMagic, post: 117518"] OK, I agree fully with true legend, but only in certain circumstances. If it`s a big forward coming straight at you, with nothing but brute force and ignorance, sure you hit the living crap out of him. If however you are defending out in the wide, open spaces, and it`s a 2 on 1 overlap, I`d much rather try to attack the ball, not the ball carrier. In the end, it comes down to the particular situation, and how quickly you can read what to do. I`d much rather concentrate on trying to win the ball, rather than stroke my ego by hitting the crap out of a ball-carrier, only to see him slip the ball to a support runner just before the hit and concede a certain 7-pointer.
