The game live view is surely one of the best features of BB and I really love it!

I would like to start here a thread about wee adjustments that could be implemented and that do not require substantial programming from the developers.

I start:
- Free throws could be also shown, maybe around the court perimeter the same way other shots are visualized (crosses and circles).
- The last shot blinking should stop when important events like free throws or time-outs take place.
- Substitutions should have different colors to better distinguish them from game actions.

More suggestions?

EDIT: Made into a sticky as I think this is worth continuous discussion.

Maybe between quarters and at halftime, there could be a display that shows the high scorers for each team or gives each team's stats (or something else).

I made a similar (but not quite the same) suggestion at (3910.72), along with an even more minor one.

Another symbol for shots that are fouled, maybe a square? To show the shot was fouled instead of purely missing it.

one more, why aren't we able to scroll the text to check previous events?

This has been suggested before, though I can't seem to find the thread right now.

The reason you can't do this has something to do with flash and how text is (or is not) stored in the match replay. As I am no programmer, I'll leave it up to a BB to give you the precise details.

I think the position of players should be indicated as sometimes i dont know who is playing in what position.

add some more game events:

now you need to look at the stats of the players to see if a shot was blocked.
It would be much nicer if after the shotevent the block shows up. Like: {player1} blocked the shot. in it's simplest form.
It shows up for fouls, so it shouldn't be to hard right?

Being a translator I also noticed many of the event sentences, for the same type of event are seldom used, while others are used quite frequently, is it possible to average these a little more?

yes, I agree and wished there were more to the plays in the game. some more details would be nice as well cause when youre looking at the match viewer, you don't really know whats going on besides where the shots are taken.

I know this change would be tough and pretty hard to make but that would make the games alot more exciting.

if a player commits a foul, add the total fouls this player committed to the message.

Foul called on Sum Guy (3 Fouls)

instead of

Foul called on Sum Guy




second suggestion:

a possibility to see only the shooting attempts of one player not only from the whole team. its really annoying to click on each shoot to figure which players makes/misses what kind of shots


third suggestiong:
add the numbers up. During a game I always like to know who has an rebounding advantage and so on. its a little annoying to always add those numbers to figure out
