How this is explained? (99374153)

Easy.

1) He put more effort then you.
2) You had just 5 players, all playing 48 minutes, he had 10 good players they rotated.
3) Your offensive flow is really really low.
4) His worst player on the game had the same rating as your best one (9.0), all his other players where batter then that, from 11.0 to 15.0.
5) You had 26 turnovers...
6) By the ratings after the game, the only parameter you where batter then your opponent is Inside Scoring.

This should be enough I guess, cheers and good luck in the rest of the season!

Low flow, low passing, too many turnover, low quality of shots. Plus he tried harder than you, (normal vs tie, CT vs normal)

More than others have already explained, ratings in a blowout are always misleading as your opponent's ratings would have been much higher if his starters kept playing

So. How do you know you are better in rebounds? Ratings says different. He had HCA as well, we dont know about enthusiasm, maybe crowd involvement coach as well for him? These are factors in his favour. He was very good at rebounding, he crushed you in rebounds (cca 86% to 55%). That is HUGE difference. On the other hand he had 8 more turnovers what helped you.

Now matchups:
POS/OFF (pts)/DEF (pts)/NET (pts)

PG/0,87 (13) / 1,91 (21) / -1,04 (-8)
SG/ 1,17 (14) / 1,08 (14) / +0,09 (0)
SF/ 1,56 (28) / 0,72 (13) / +0,84 (+15)
PF/ 1,11 (10) / 1,04 (24) / +0,07 (-14)
C/ 1,14 (25) / 1,18 (20) / -0,04 (+5)

You were more efficient at SF and slightly on SG and PF. But you ended up +1 in pts only! He was better at PG spot and slightly at C and that gave him +3 pts.

Your guards lacks inside shot (and at least Upeslacis defense?) while your opponent has these spots covered, your guards are more drivers without IS,ID and his are more IS,ID players. His PF was the key pretty much. He defended very well your PF, but your PF was pretty efficient anyway (maybe from pass shots?). On the other your PF had problems in defending his PF (his own shots).

So combination of AWAY game (enthusiasm,speciality coach) and not most suitable tactic from your side were the biggest reasons of your lost. He is built up better for tactic used and you couldnt manage to exploite more of his problems like SFs OD and maybe bigs OD. Your center looks better than his..

Well maybe didnt put it smoothly. Upeslacis may be good in inside but he might have "unnecessary" high other skills, like JS that tend him shoot from outside more than from inside. Shuochao was 5/6 from inside while had total 10 shots. Upeslacis was 1/1 from inside with 8 total shots. That says Shuochao is pure inside oriented PG and therefore was more suitable for this tactic. Similar applies to Kern and Gurleyen with only 1 inside attempts what is very low for inside attack. Madera (his SG) was 3/3 from inside. That indicates high jumps to compare to inside? And about ID, Upeslacis had 4 leaks on those 6 Shuochao´s attempts.. I dont want to reveal or try to reveal too much but I guess your opponents dont read this thread.

Rebounds were obviously the key, so i guess enthusiasm was also difference, besides mentioned HCA.

Good luck
