Start 3 players and make sure to have the lucky fan's play PG and C. If your lucky fan is at PG...You will lose this game. Just look at the example game you gave. His PG dominated. Lucky fan at PG and C= a loss

I only see 1 possible downside from making it a walk over:

your fans might be in lesser mood to show up in your next game then when you just lost your game without walk-over.
So I'd also try to field 3 guys and make it a 'normal' game
Overall bot teams (especially the ones reaching the finals) aren't that bad. I've known teams who did want to win and fielded 5 players and still lost to the bots because they underestimated them... But okay...

Apart from that I don't think there is any censequences.


But let me add one last thing: what will happen if for instance you trow the second game, and then by sheer bad luck the 3 best players get injured during the tie breaker in the first quarter?
Would it still be a sure win? since, even odd and rare, it CAN happen.

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

I would really like to bet on two events, but both of them wont happen :p

1) I would win game 2 with my worst three players
2) I would defeat the Bot by 20+ in the Tiebreaker without playing my three best players

It is "too risky" if I play game 2, so I will forfeit intentionally and go for game 3 - more money, no strings attached? Why not?

I am exactly in the same situation as you are in the first leg of final I won by +50
But I am trying to lose the game not to walk over it .
This way I can get 1/3 of the bot`s arena income too .
So my line up is :
PG : Lucky fan
SG : My worst C
SF : Another C with bad shooting ability
PF : My worst PG !!!!
C : Lucky fan

HOPE I LOSE THIS GAME !!!!!!

Ps. I changed my tactic to Princeton man to man & Playoff normal

Nice, now like me you just have that final hurdle before promotion becomes a reality.
