I've had the same problem happen in the past. From my experience, it seems to take a guy who isn't on the depth chart and put him in at the vacant position, there might be something to the sim engine deciding not to disrupt the rest of the lineup to fill the necessary position. Either way, I've started putting a third-stringer in over the past couple of seasons rather than starter-backup-starter. He'll really only come in during garbage time, and occasionally if foul trouble makes the two players ahead of him unavailable, but all of that is easily overlooked when a situation like the one you just had happens.

If you're interested, look at my player Kris Allen's minutes over the last two seasons. I have him as my "reserve" at PF and C every game and I don't think he's played a high-leverage minute yet where my better interior players have been available.

Wow I've been playing since season 10 and I've never seen or heard of a player being ejected until now. Pretty interesting.

Ejections are from 2 flagrant fouls, not from 6 fouls.

I understand that part of it, however it took guys that were #2 on the depth chart (PG, SG, SF) when the obvious choice would have been to put the backup PF in based on his stats.

Interesting, not sure then. My next best guess would be that it might choose the player with least minutes, but again, that's a guess at best.

If you are playing strictly follow depth chart & a position becomes vacant the game puts your highest salaried player there & ignores skills.

If you run a blank lineup with strictly follow depth chart the coach will put your highest salary player at PG, #2 at SG, #3 at SF etc totally ignoring skills.

But +1 for the team name :)

Yeah I've never seen a player with two flagrant fouls in a game. Guess there's a first for everything

I know what you mean, must have been a big mismatch or a hyper aggressive player :O
