To give example-

Vs. Killah Beez I was out-called on fouls 11-3 at half, 18-8 after 3Q, and 22-13 final. Using patient/M2M. (at home too)

Next game vs Legion- outcalled 14-8, with my opponent shooting 18 FT to my 10. Using Base Offense/M2M.

Is this random bad luck or are there actual factors that cause one player to foul more than another

From what I have learned so far. If you have a bad matchup like you do in you last not scrimmage game at PF position for example you tend to foul more. If it's close in the end your players foul more. Did you watch the game against legion Live? I bet the fouls game in the end trying to win the game by fouling. Scouting your opponents and looking at the games I think your fouls are fine...

Actually, in both games I fouled less than the opponent in the 4th in both games mentioned. Neither game was a 'hack/finish'. I can see the matchup being the case though.

Mainly, if your guy can't guard the opponent at a particular position, fouls are more likely to happen. So, defensive ability (OD or ID) is the key.

Thanks GM-K, I noticed that certain of my players foul more than others. One of them is actually my best defender. That makes sense.

I have a question on fouls as well:

If a player's foul is assessed as a technical foul, doesn't the opposing team get 2 free throws AND get to start play with the possession of the ball? If this is the case, then something got messed up in the 46th minute of my most recent match: an opponent committed a technical foul, was ejected from the game, I got both free throws, but they started with the ball.

I could be wrong on the rules in this case, but I thought that techs were severely punished.

he only had 2 fouls in the game, and his name changed color immediately after the message 'xxx xxxx was ejected from the game!'

whether or not he was ejected though, shouldn't my team have gotten the ball after taking the free throws?
