But the other thing that is really stupid is there is one 20 seconds to go, the other team is trying to catch up so they are intentionally fouling and they UTTERLY POLEAXE your player and injure them out for 4 weeks. What would that look like in a real game? Is there any way in a real game that if someone intentionally injured another player it wouldn't be 2 free throws, keep possession and the fouling player ejected? Then you lose the game and the next three or four as well, just beyond belief that such a stupid season destroying thing can happen.

I would also change the foul system, sometimes has no sense

(10526)

Watch this game, its an example:

-With 2 seconds left, a polish player scores the 82-82, its drawed.

-0:00 and polish player makes a foul(wihtout play), the spanish player miss the 2 FT's and it goes to the OT the match.

On the overtime


-With 3 seconds left, a polish player scores 2 points and it make it 97-97.

-0:00 and a polish player makes again a foul(without play) and this time yes, the spanish player does it and Spain U21 wins.



I dont know if you think this is because of the experience, but all the players under u21 have low experience. I've seen lot of matches during this last seasons with similar endings and i doesnt seems because of experience, it seems me more because the game engine doesnt take in care this kind of things.

Most of the problem in this game engine is that the last minute, it hasnt realistic finals, you can watch amazing ends that in real life would have no place. Or for example(i know in Europe we do it a lot) but if a team is winning by 3 on the lasts seconds and it hasnt the posession its normal to make a foul so you dont let the chance ot the other team to go to the OT. Or even if you arent in bonus, you let the time run some seconds and you make the foul, that is normal to happen on Europe that we care a lot on this details.

I've seen lot of matchs, going to the OT after a team made 3 point shoot on the buzzer.


I dont know wether the BB's notice it, but it would be nice if the game engine could be more realistic on the last 1 minute of the game.

Yes, but when this happens more times than normal its not really realistic... and also take in care that is 2 seconds, from our side of the court... Im not even saying that we dindt call a time out to start the play from the middle of the court ;) (That would be too realistic hehe ¡)

Its something that really can be improved

The fact that last-second fouls happened twice in the same game doesn't mean they happen more times than normal. One game is not a representative sample.

If im posting it, it was because i've seen more than one time this happening. I've observated during this seasons how the game engine works and its more about the lack of common sense of the game engine and about the foul system.

I dont know either if its possible to change on a future this, but the fact is that the game engine that we have now is ok, but if it has a close end sometimes happen things that arent really realistic like in real life.

And look that i was commenting that the foult its commited without a play thats even harder to imagine, at least i could understand some defender does a foul on a play that its written, but i've seen more times matchs ending with a foul but without a play than a match ending with a play and a foul produced(and the last thing it should be the normal one and not the other '')

The fact is that im just suggesting an idea to change the finals of a match when its close, to give more sense to the game engine :)

It's not a "foul without a play". It's a foul that was committed before the player managed to get a shot off. Happens all the time in basketball.

Yes, but since we dont know how exactly the foul is commited'', we can argue in this semi-scientific manner until tomorrow with no conclusive results.

Anyway, im just hoping that with the new zones announced on the game engine, the BB's can add a bit of realism to the game engine in the last minute of the matchs, specially for the ones that are close.

As i said before, for example i would love to see a team doing foul so they dont allow the other team to have a chance to shoot from the 3p line if they are winning by 3(that happens all time in basketball) and its about the foul system too...

I'm quite curious what affects the fouls too. And I do agree to an extent with

- but having an entire team where no-one fouls or everyone does is not realistic.

PS: I've had games where it looks like my players have a hidden stat too. The so-ugly-people-feel-like-smacking-the-crap-out-of-them stat.
