Unless you CT'd somewhere previously, they probably CT'd this game. Add the fact that they were at home, and it becomes a rough game to win for you

for me, i think if you home the match and you play CT in the match, then you got the 90% to win....

i dont think that "once" you played CT, you will have a high chance of winning.. my games, i play TIE 2x a week. and i win most of the games(which contradicts your opinion, CT makes you win games and TIE makes you lose games)..

CT improves your ratings(i dont really know what ratings increase) but it does not necessarily makes you win. so i believe your opponent is just better than your team. and that's the reason why you've lost

What CT does is weight the chances in your favour. Let's say under normal circumstances you have get a shot at the basket, with a 50% chance it'll go in. CT increases this chance, maybe to 60%, actual numbers unknown to the BB public. Because you now have a higher chance of scoring, the ratings go up to reflect this as well.

CT doesn't actually improve the ratings, but weights the chances you get in your favour.

weighted chances of making a basket = more baskets counted = improved ratings

it does actually improve your ratings.. for example, when playing normal, i can have as much as strong(medium) for my inside scoring. when TIE, i have average(medium-very high)..

Correct. I find that explaining that CT weights the odds in your favour to be a more accurate explanation. When saying CT increases ratings is not wrong, just inaccurate.

Like you said : weighted chances of making a basket = more baskets counted = improved ratings

CT improves the weighting, which subsequently leads to increased match ratings because of this consequence. Just thought I'd add that in lest someone misunderstands and think that a CT directly increases match ratings. =)

Oh, on a rather unrelated side not I was wondering if you could answer this particular question.

How do you get the top league in your country renamed? Div I.1 just doesn't cut it.
