It would help, if you would read some posts in this thread before posting, but here we go again.
If you want to play a 3k salary player as a starter and 33k player as a sub. Then you will have to set the 3k player as starter+sub spots and set the 33k player into the reserve spot. If you set 3k player as starter and 33k player as sub, then your coach will override your decision and will switch the obviously better player to starting position.
Good luck.


I do that every week, and I have never noticed my 30k player play more minutes than my 3k player...does it only happen sometimes? Wierd.

It was an example. It's about skill difference. My third C got switched when I set my starting C as sub (in my first year), so that's when I first encountered the problem and tested it.
Are you talking about sub or reserve spot here. If the lineup is accepted (noone switced) then it's only logical that the sub does not play more minutes than starter. Unless there are unforseen events (like foul trouble or injury).

What i mean is that i set my starter as a 1k scrub, then set the sub and reserve as my 30k player, but i have never had the players switch spots. So why does it happen sometimes and not others?

Which game are you talking about? There are no such games this season? Perhaps your 30k player was also one skill dude with lots of blue skills? Playing that 30k player out of position?

I'll post the link to the games once i get home. But as i only have a 5 player roster i play my players all 48 minutes in 1 game and all of them as backups in the next game with 1k scrubs as starters so that i get a good number of minutes each week for those 5 players for gameshape purposes. And i have never had them switch. So either my starters aren't enough of an improvement on the 1k scrubs, which i highly doubt as i have no players that are unbalanced in skills. Or this only happens sometimes in which case i would like to know when and why it happens.

Check out my last league game. I have put my starters as the backups and reserves and I have put 1k scrubs to fill the remaining spots (ignore the SF and PF spot as I am training there).
The players that are set to backups are clearly far better than 1k scrubs. And yet the lineup did not switch round.
So why is it that you think it has happened to other people, but it doesn't seem to happen to me?

I'm not sure, perhaps it has something to do with your team constantly switching players? Perhaps your 50k player is one skiller? Keep trying, play scrubs where they are out of position, fit the position etc I bookmarked (not 50 yet lol) your team:)

I don't know why switching players would make a difference though.
The 50k player has the following:
Jump Shot: average Jump Range: mediocre
Outside Def.: respectable Handling: awful
Driving: mediocre Passing: inept
Inside Shot: prolific Inside Def.: sensational
Rebounding: tremendous Shot Blocking: proficient
Stamina: strong Free Throw: strong

Experience: respectable

He is far better than the 1k scrub and yet the coach didn't switch them.

Same thing for my 30k shooting guard not getting switched with the 1k scrub at the SG position in my last league game. The scrub even got a rating of 2.5. If a coach isn't switching players at this point, I don't see why he ever would.

The rating of the player does not matter. As it is influenced by his stamina opponent etc,etc... What matter is the skill difference. It's a bit strange that the 50k player did not get switched, but it might be the problem with your team having not enough players. This much I know: we need to gather more info.

I understand the rating is influenced by a lot of things. But any player with a rating of 2.5 in any situation should just be shot lol.
I set 7 players in to the lineup. I think that is more than enough players for a lineup especially when I am training 2 positions this week. Definitely need more info.

But, in the mean time, I am glad that everytime I have set "Strictly Follow Depth Chart" it strictly follows the depth chart :)
