You're thinking of the wrong kind of defense. Contest the balls! Don't push the robots! To me, "man defense" is often the wrong call in this game and too many teams are focused on the physical, versus denying access to resources. Denying a ball possession, especially if you give your own alliance possession of the same ball, has a higher return than making a robot miss one shot.
