Have the BB's now made these gameengine changes, which let you play one backup for two diffrent positions? Because in my last league game (8661161) i set L. Svyatov as the starting C, I. Ficheira as the starting PF and C. Manzonetto as the backup for PF and C.
Now Ficheira hardly played in this game (even tough his stamina level is 7 and he didn't get injured), instead Manzonetto played starting minutes at PF and one of the reserves had to jump in at C for L. Svyatov.

Why is that so? Were the announced changes really put in place? Or did Ficheira just didn't play a lot because of early foul trouble (altough he only had 3 by halftime..)?

i think that is a very good suggestion. I hope they will look into that and change the game engine, or make the AI from the coach smarter. eg take the best players out when you are way ahead and put them back in when it is starting to go wrong...

Same is with the 3 point shooters etc and free throws. Why do always people have to take them that have no skill what so ever??? if people don't know what I mean look at my last game. If you know you can't take penalty kicks in football, you don't take them. Same should be in basketball games, I have guys shooting for example 1 in 10 3 pointers. That is in my opinion 9 missed shots for better 3 point shooters or 9 2 point shots... I realise that it is maybe difficult to program, but it would make the game a lot more realistic...

ps I do realise some tactics and game situations influence this, but 1 in 10 3 pointer tries is a bit ridiculous...

Thanks a lot for your answer. I thought I would understand your explanation, until todays game (8661169), haha. I used the exact same lineup as last time (Same Backup for PF and C), and I. Ficheira played 48 minutes on the PF position! Why the hell?! It wasn't even a close game, I won like 103-81 (and no, it wans't OT either)!

Would you know why this has happened? Because I don't seem to get this new substitution method..

Add stamina and "Let them play" to explanation. And you can't really see who his PF backup is (you can pretty easily guess of course).
