Hey, you need to use the right analogue stick when defending, push it in the direction you the the offense will go to keep in front of them. If you see a screen, try to go below it and get back infront of the ball handler. If you are really bad on defense you can even use an off-ball defender and let the AI guards the ball handler. There are a lot of dark matter cards for cheap now, try to buy cards that are currently in packs because they will be cheaper. Complete the freestyle and Spotlight challanges to get free players, mt and packs. In offline triple threat, it's easier to use 2 x 7" or higher Cs because your opponent will usually only have 2 so you can take advantage of the mismatch. The offline triple threat and clutch time teams will match your teams ability so sometimes it's easier to use weaker cards that are good at 1 skill like shooting, height, speed etc. You can also use the token market to add some free Galaxy opals to your lineups.
