thanks man this helps my team alot

Actually, the Heat don't necessarily put 2 wings up top. We put whoever the best, most athletic, longest, most versatile defenders are (other than the center). Naturally that seems like a job for a wing/forward, but currently our preferred top duo is Caleb Martin + Gabe Vincent. Gabe is a point guard but he's 6'3" and has the skill and athleticism to do it.

This explanation is good but this heat zone is actually different than normal 2-3 zone Its a combination of 2-3 and 3-2 (I name it 3-3 zone) When the opponent stays around 45° spot they will go to 3-2 and when the opponent moves to corner they go 2-3 The weakside kinda play man to man in a sense
