Do you play better in 1v1 or 5v5

Question

why?

Answer 1

I don't play much 1v1 unless its kind of hate on hate situation. I prefer 3v3 in street ball. just makes more room to move around. but on hardwood definitely 5v5 there is nothing better.  

Answer 2

1v1

Answer 3

1 on 1... I can do 5 on 5 too. I guess I like to have complete control over a game and what better way than to play 1 on 1.

Answer 4

5 on 5 by a long shot. im not the best at one on one i work much better with a team

Answer 5

5 on 5. its a team game and in order to become the best you must be able to make people better around you. And also be able to make yourself better of course. 1 on 1 just proves your either better or weaker then you oppenent.  

Answer 6

I personally play better one on one. It's not like I can't play with a team, but when I play five on five I have to balance finding my open teammates and making my own offensive moves. I'm also better at executing offensive moves because I have more space. I'm a little better defensively five on five because I can take people by surprise at times to get blocks and steals. But overall I'm better one on one, unfortunately.

Answer 7

5v5 in 1v1 its just basically whos faster or who has a better jump shot. I am not the fastest nor the best jump shooter so I usually lose in 1v1. In 5v5, theres more strategy involved and plays and other things that allow somone to get open or isolate players etc. 1v1 is fun to play but if you have a full team then i would rather play 5v5.

Answer 8

5v5, because I run out of gas playing one on one.....

Answer 9

i have bad finish and my shots like a marion shot which is easily blocked and i dont jump to shot it lol but i have good handles and have nice passes so 5 vs 5 and more ppl playing is usually more fun  

Answer 10

i like to play 5v5 coz you can try out different strategies and it also opens up the court for you, also can create mismatches, but 1 on 1 has its own fun.

Answer 11

i play best when there is less people. when its 5v5 its just sprinting up and down the court with layups.

the best is half court 3v3  it uses team work and 1v1 play.

Answer 12

5 v 5

I'm a center- do I really have to explain that one?

Answer 13

1 on 1 i show more skills but 5 on 5 i play a team game

Answer 14

5 on 5 you'll develop good good teamwork skills and intelligence of the game. You'll have to find ways to get open and help your teammates. 1 on 1 is way easier than 5 on 5. Heck, even 3 on 3 is easier then 5 on 5. You can get in much better shape playing 5 on 5, and improve so much more.  

Answer 15

5v5. When you play 1 on 1 you have to depend completely on yourself. When it's 5 on 5 you can hussel and scrap more, and you don't need to make your own shot every time.
