As a long time supporter and player, I am getting sick of the nonsense. I just lost a cup game to a team that started all 5 of their starters 3 times this week, some of them played over 100 minutes, my guys were fresh and my team determined and we lose?? not just lose, but also my team wracks us 27 fouls to his 18....even though his guys are all playing stupid minutes, they never get tired, never foul, shoot way better than my team, its just a load of shit. Do better, make the damn game more realistic. And yes I realize he put more in the game than I did, but his players should have been sucking air, worn out, its just absurd. I am on the verge of dropping my longtime supporter status, I just cant take this kind of unrealistic crap much more.

What was the game shape of the opponent's players before the game?
Number of minutes played in the same week as the game has no bearing on their shape during the final game of the week.
Their shape will most likely drop this following week though.

Anyways, the quick answer is:

1) He played at home
2) With more enthusiasm
3) You guessed his focus wrong
4) He murdered you in rebounding (correctly, since there are 2,5 levels of difference, meaning he shot A LOT more
5) Your free throw percentage is very very low, barely above .500

His game shapes were all lower than mine, my DMI was higher than his. On every single factor I should have cruised to victory.

His enthusiasm wasn't higher than mine, I only guessed wrong on focus, that shouldn'tave been an issue after the first quarter, his bigs are rebounder, but that's it, he won because his 89k pg scored from the outside amazingly....Anyway I already knew there would be some BB defenders that will make the absurd case the right team won, but trust me IDC. This was STUPID.

I'm not saying the right team won, I'm pointing out some factors that might have contributed to the loss, aside from luck obviously, which always plays a part.

Aside from that, I wouldn't call myself a BB defender, because inn all honesty, I couldn't care less.
And on that note, if you don't care, try to imagine how much I care about whether you won or lost

Fair enough. My bad. looking back at this entire post, I was just extremely pissed off by this. There is nothing BB will do to make it better, so I was just needing to vent, and I appreciate you humoring me with a reply, I apologize for being a bit of an ass. Just freaking pisses me off right now how badly my team is struggling for no apparent reason. But it happens. I did not want to lose to a team that I felt like didn't even know how the damn game worked. Playing guys that many minutes I always thought led to a collapse in energy, but apparently that was no true. Maybe this week he will pay a price for it, but that is of no use to me. Anyway, now I know, I can play my guys for 100 minutes with ne repercussion's during the games...

And Im not really gonna quit, I did that a few years ago when I played and always regretted it. Its still one of the best team manager games I have come across, even if there are glaring absurdities like this.

Spoken like a true gentleman. Great to see.

I CT'd my more talented rival in our Cup and scraped the win...I'm sure he wasn't expecting that
