In my league game, the opposing starting SG Spomenko Mikulic (16869028) got injured in the third quarter, but never left the game and played almost the entire fourth quarter. I don't understand--he was marked red in the viewer and the play-by-play says he was injured, but he didn't have to leave the game at all. IRL players can play through minor injuries, but in BB I didn't think that was possible. Is this a bug?

This game was a must-win for playoffs for me, and if he had been injured I think I would have won the game, despite not playing my best player and TIEing against their CT. So I'm a little frustrated that their top scorer was allowed to play an extra quarter that by rights he should have been sitting out.

Probably it's a case of the "taping injuries" event. Rare, but happens.

it look like taping injury, he injury 3 min before the end of quarter 3 get replaced and comes back at the beginning of quarter 4.

if your doc, don't have this speciality, or haven't it at the time of the game, i move this to the bug section.

Blaming something other than the bold above is silly. You lost because you made poor tactical decisions. Better luck next time.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

Thanks Tangosz and CrazyEye, I forgot about the taping injuries specialty. I have massage to help with GS. That makes a whole lot more sense.

Somedetsfinest--I don't really appreciate having my post essentially called silly and my tactical decisions called poor. I went into the game knowing that there was a good chance I would lose, but my best player had already played 48+ minutes per week and I was playing another player at his position for training purposes. It's my first season in D.IV, I have no big men worth mentioning, and my whole plan all along was to just make money and train my two young guards while not getting relegated. In that sense, I had already surpassed my expectations for the season by securing 5th place at worst and being competitive for a playoff spot. Had I made it into the playoffs, I wouldn't have contended for a title. Would it have been nice to see my team in the playoffs? Of course. If I played my top lineup, would I have won? Yes. But I took a more long-term approach that necessarily involved me risking being eliminated from playoff contention, and the gamble didn't pay off. But how is that silly or a poor tactical decision?

And just to clarify, I wasn't upset because I lost (like I said, making the playoffs wasn't a concern for me), I was upset because I thought I had been cheated out of a win by the game engine. Had I lost fairly (which it turns out I did), I would have been completely ok with it (which I am, now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up). I don't appreciate getting insulted, though, and I do feel insulted by your post. Just saying.

Well, I apologize if I hurt your feelings.

I will respond in a bbmail as I don't want to do so again.

I got your message and sent you a response. Hopefully that will help clear things up and put this to rest. I can respect and admire your willingness to apologize for any unintentional offense he may have given, even though you stand by your original point. That's a +1.
