While I am Happy my team is 9-0 and avg 120+ pts a game..we have had a few games where we give up HUGE leads to the point my original starters have to come in and still its close. This happened to my team in the semi finals last season and LOST because we went 0-12 in a few mins while the opponant ran off away with the game and won it. Its starting to happen in games against tougher opponants..I get up by 20+ or near 30 points late in the 3rd or early 4th. I put in a few of my bench players who have also been playing throughout the game and BAM..Nothing. We turn the ball over, we cant hit any shots and the opposing team team seems to have every thing go thr way. WTF?????????? Anybody else have this issue? I pretty much run RNG and M2M on defense.

Do your backups have good stamina and decent skills?

you need depth.

Have a 6th and 7th man with like 7 or 8k salary and then you should not expect some of those comebacks.

last season I had a beast 7.5k backup that could start in some games, he ended up winnin the 6th Man award and my league title (my normal start got injured and then my 6th Man came in, and blew my opponet away!)

I think the 6th Man role is under appreciated in this game............I myself need to look for a 6th Man in my rebuilding process

My guess would be game shape. You have a handful of players with only mediocre GS. You may need to pick up a couple of cheap players to help you manage minutes better or get a doctor with massage specialty.
