why cant the head oach understand that your backup might be a better fit than the starter on some nights. In my game tonight my backup Power foward and backup point guard played allot in the first half and i was in charge of the game. They played less in the second and we lost the game. One reason is my backup point is a better defender and their point guard scored 37 points. If my starter is strugling to defend him why not put my backup in who is a slioghlty better defender and maybe i win the game.

Sometime the coach must understand that changing your style of offence or defense is not the answer and playing your backup more is. It was really annoying watching this game when my backup should have gotten more minutes. I thought based on last year i chose the right starter but i did not and the coach should be able to make the change.

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em, Know when to walk away and know when to run. You never count your money when youre sittin at the table. Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done.

In this case your starters should foul more often :) So that they will benched in the second half too.

But maybe he wnants to win the game on the offense end, or he see that the opponent PG had to take hard shot but sometimes they fall.

I think if the coach change the rule of starters and backups it becomes nearly impossible, to train your weakest trainee.

I'm not trying to train my traainee in this game that is for the 3 games over the week. I want to win this game and the best chance i had was with my backup point guard in this situation. In real life most teams have a 6th man who does npt start but finishes games . I just want my coach to realize my point guard was struggling on both offense and defense and maybe my other guard was a better option and put him in.

Just think for a second if your backup come in and plays 3 minutes in the first quater and scores 6 points has 3 rebounds an assist and on perfect shooting would you not give him more minutes. If he is playing well you want him to be on the court for as long as posibe. We cant see what happens defensivly put my backup is a better option and when my starter is getting scorched for 37 points then my backup should gt his chance to try and stop him.

That is the head coach decision not mine once the game starts. To be honest i was goin to make the decision to switch them before the game started but i got to my computer 30 seconds to late.

That is my fault and sometime you need a good assistant coach or head coach to change my mistakes. If we can choose our coaches then we can decide on if we want a defensive coach or offensive one. They can all have their ratings and based on whay you want you can go after and then it would be my fault for havig the wrong coaching staff.

How the coach could know who you want to train? And mainly it should be your fault,whaen you start the other player. So if the coach react to good, you could make less faults but it becomes more difficult to win games through tactic.

So i like an coach who is your reight hand on the court and no brave assistant who makes the tactic himself, and even in real basketball star players have bad days but the coach trust in those players because they hope they find their touch.

You are not even in the ball park. Yes players have bad days but coaches make the decisions to win the game as they see fit. The player at habd is a rotation players with his backup. I start the one who is more appropiate for the gam becasue i cant have a startering lineup knowing the fact my coach will make the right decision. So if i make a mistake like i did here then it can be fixed by the head coach.

For the record the best head coaches have thos ebrave assitants to help them make the right decisions. That is why when you watch profesional team play they usualy have the same starters every night and make the rest of the decisions based on how the offense or defense is playing the paticular night. Then he decides if they are having a poor night and is it worth waiting for them to wake up or give him a few moments.

but here you don't have something like a bad day, or nervous brakdowns ;) And if the coach fix it, you have to less impact on strategics, and bad player are even more difficult to train.

Normally you don't play 2-3 Zone or the all the game, or look inside etc.

But this is a game and this is the oppurtunity for the player to have an impact on the result, and not just putting some player in the lineup and let the coach do the rest.

Edit: How you orders your head coach to make decisions?

I let the coach decide and if he is only making subs with foul trouble or when someone is tired then what is the difference between let the coach decide and strictly follow the depth chart.

I want the coach to be able to make swiches that help my team win not just the moves that he feels have to be done.

Why is that so difficult to underrstand

try it again with players with less qualitie starting, then you see the different ;) Something like good Days, or the day form the coach doesn't know. But their still a big impact of your choiches you made.

i don't asked anything ;)

I made proposals, the coach don't see series like 3 consequetives misses or hit and because their is no daily shape such thing are just luck or bad luck. But if you play coach choiche with player from different qualitie with the better one on the bench yo would see, that those player got a lot of minutes.

I cant on;y choose with the optons given. I told my coach to make the decissions. Not to follow the depth chart or anything else. He chose to stick with my starters like he always do. That is a problem in the game because sometimes your backup needs more time or is the better option. I dont have the luxury to tell my coach if they do this you do that or when there starter comes out take out mine. The coach needs to make more decisions that can benifit your team because i can see thm from watching and the coach rarely makes the changes i would like. I cant see when he changes my offense or defensive plays but i can see his subbing pattern which is not always good.
