I cant believe I lost a cup game to a team that started all 5 starters 3 times in one week. These guys nearly all played over 100 minutes for the week, and there was no dropoff whatsoever. his players were already in crap shape, mine are all strong or proficient, my enthusiasm was at 10, and I still lost to these bums. I guess there is no penalty whatsoever within the same week for playing your best players over 100 minutes, I was always led to believe that they would wear out. I love BB, but sometimes I get so frustrated with the damn game engine. Ive got great players collecting 5 fouls in the first Quarter, wtf is that? That happened the other night against the BALLERS in a league game. I am constantly getting in the bonus quickly and also getting behind by 10-20 points and havint to play catch up even in games I win. Frustrating to say the least.

The only penalty I know is that if you over-play guys, their GS will drop... and if their stamina is low, they might tire out within a game, but nothing about X hours per same week that I know of

If you're committing a lot of fouls, you might just have very aggressive players. Players have a hidden stat of foul tendency. Sadly, there's no way to know without just see how often/quickly they get in foul trouble. When scouting draft picks, you can see how many fouls they have in their stat line if you unlock that as an indicator. I try to stay way from guys with high foul counts.

Yeah i knew about the game shape penalty for overplaying your guys, but I always thought guys would wear out after about 85 minutes. It seems I was mistaken. I've had some discussions on the forums. As far as fouling, I know about the hidden Aggression level and I guarantee my best player is high, it sucks. But my whole damn team fouls a ton in nearly an defense, which is weird but oh well. Im sure it'll work out down the road.

love that you post these little summaries that allow us to do our own analysis! Thanks.

I, however, do take exception to listing Steven Moore as the worst performer on the court! After all, he only turns 80 soon!!:)

Thanks, but just so you know, I just copy and paste these summaries from Buzzer Manager. I dont actually compile or analyze any of it. It on the League tab.

Whew what did I do to deserve this conference?? Tough teams here. Gonna be brutal to have a better record than 3-4 teams in the league and still relegate.

Enjoying the competition but unfortunately probably a season early here. Squad is shaping up to be pretty good in another season or two I think.
