Yes, they told me about such finals in BB Italy. :)
I suppose it would be fair that, if they decide to fix the last seconds, all these issues will be properly faced, mine , yours and any other known :)

Wouldn't this fall under the realm of "Experience"?


What level of experience allows a player to go from his foul line to the opposing foul line in the space of one second?

Yeah, had something like that happen in my league game Saturday.
1 second left, other team missed a shot. 1 second left, my Center player, a "natural" PG, got the rebound . 0 seconds left, he had threaded a pass to my scoring guard who missed a shot in the paint.

What a laser beam that pass must be to go full court in less than a second and give a guy enough time to shoot from less than 8 feet away.

I suggest BB concentrates all its effort on fixing late game scenarios. It just does not make any sense to be down 1 point with a minute to go and foul and foul and foul until you get them in the bonus, so they can extend their lead.
It's so flawed!
Career stat was a wonderful addition, but I would give it up together with some other improvements for late game scenarios that make sense.
Time outs is another puzzler. Not taken when the momentum swings or when useful, i.e. after a RB with 20 secs. left and down by one possession, but instead when the lead has ballooned and 1 sec. left. It's gotta be a way to put some exceptions in the GE.
I don't even understand how people get to RB and layup in last sec. craziness, if I'm down by 1 point with a minute to go, I'll sure lose by 6!

Just adding to the late game issues...

I think it's a bit silly that, in last minute games, the losing side is always able to foul so quickly. Pass the ba- BAM FOUL! Sometimes this will happen, sure. Other times, the winning team will be able to get a good few seconds off the clock.

There has been a number of suggestions to add skills indicating athletic abilities of players. Here is one:

but then people will want fast breaks and other features resembling real life, it's a dangerous route to follow for BB.

Got that right, there are fastbreaks, but not often. I want to see some like Miami does, Lebron steals the ball, LOBS to Wade BAM! (I don't like the Heat, just giving an example, they always do that)

They could just randomise the time factor when a player is fouled. Some have .7 seconds and others have 7 seconds.

Yeah its not just that.

Why would my team, with 3 timeouts left. in a 89-90 game...
56 seconds left I get a steal. No timeout called... why not? 3 timeouts left?!
49 seconds, I get the ball stolen back. Bet that wouldn't have happened with a timeout.
44 seconds. Stop them, rebound, timeout 2 left. 2 timeouts left.
32 left I shoot, miss, they rebound.
16 seconds left they shoot. miss, offensive rebound
no foul?!
0 seconds left my team steals, but no time to shoot the ball

I would like to see timeouts managed more effectively. or the foul. or both.
