my team scored exactly 0 points in a quarter and 8 for a half....what is this middle school??? For petes sake.....come on. I was on the verge of becoming a supporter but this is unacceptable, I wasnt even playing a power house....but im sure there will be any number of defenders...I will continue to play and if it gets better I will become a supporter but wow.....just wow. I coach kids basketball and I have seen 4-5 year old girl play better than what I just saw....I digress.

well if you look at the divisions on the team, they are in division 3. while you are in D5. There is a BIG difference in divisions man.

if you want to have better scrimmages, face weak division 4 teams and some d5 teams. also you can scrimmage any other weak player from a country. so this wasn't a mistake. they just had great D

No doubt. I didnt mean to be overly reactionary, and I know these guys work hard to make this a good game, and I really like it. I shouldnt be so hard on them. But I have been around basketball all my life and I have never seen a team score 0....they were all my backups and maybe they just had the worst night possible...lol.....My apologies to the staff, I appreciate what you guys are doing and after all this is a free game so I really have no right to be so harsh. I wish I had said it differently in retrospect, I was just taken aback....lol. But its all good and I love the game.....Peace BB.

Seriously, if you want some points, go out and buy some players.
I'm sure 4 or 5 year old girls wouldn't score a single point against a College team.
Besides, scrimmages are not for wins or points
they are to manage game shape and for training

Last week I went to a bb game of french 1st divison (PRO A), during a quarter one of the team scored only 3 pts, all on FTs, and they hadn't scored any 8mins into the quarter, so that happens in real life too, couple very good defense with bad offense and lack of luck on shots, bad confidence builds in and here you go

The zero points is easily explained; you had 23 possessions, and 7 of those were turnovers, and you went 0-16 on from the field and 0-2 from the line. As a coach you might know the answer to this better than I would, but if your ball skills are bad enough that you turn the ball over roughly one out of every three times you have it, how often do you expect the other possessions to lead to actual quality shots?

Which, of course, is not to say the sim is perfect - there are some quirks in it that just don't make a lot of sense. But this is far from the more egregious examples.
