I would want to see BB change the shot clock rule to 14 seconds when there's an offensive rebound. It might change things up and add multiple possessions for both sides, but then again there are still some points in the game where the shot clock stays at 00 for a decent amount of seconds. I'm just not sure about decreasing the breaks to 15 to 10 at half and 2 min from 3 mins. Sure it sucks waiting for the 15 minutes but I do love the realistic vibe for that one.

I mean I agree with the idea of adding some text during that 15 mins to make things fun and interesting. It would be fun to know how would the engine decide who are the notable players to shoutout during the half break. Personally, I would like to see if an engine pinpoints if one of my opponent's players is cold for the game as it makes me feel good that either I trained my players somehow right or I chose the right defense.

Calculation is 100% made during the 15min before the game, that's why you can't change anything past the 15 minutes mark.

Sorry but I don't see where this is unfair, as anybody has access to the play-by-play at the end of the game.

And watching live games is already some kind of advantage as you can see things like matchups on every shot, shot-clock, substitutions.
For exemple, if your PG with 3/7 from 3pts took 3 shots from halfcourt at the end of quarters, he is in fact 3/4 and performed way better than what the boxscore tells you.

As I wrote in my first post, you can learn a lot about your team and what really works for it.


Edit:

And this is why I made that suggestion, watching live games is so cool, very addictive and it can even be thrilling on some occasions !!

But we all have things to do IRL and 1h30 if often too much for people...19 minutes less can't be bad.

I didn't remember that it was supporter only, you're right.

At halftime, the scoreboard could turn into a sidescrolling Defender-style action arcade game.
