Hey guys, since this thread was closed for 24 hours but is now open again i thought id start the thread up again

I actually won this game but it confused me quite a bit. I play the wrong defensive tactic, and he crushed me in the ratings, yet i still won. Any ideas as to why this is?

You had a higher FG%, made more threes, grabbed more rebounds, committed less turnovers, forced more turnovers, and your scoring was more balanced.

I suppose that makes sense but then why were his ratings so much better than mine?

Maybe your team team didn't fit a Princeton offense. Other than that, I have no clue.

C. Winslow on his team....
Seems if that guy played more, maybe a diff story.

that and you hit 13 3s in 40 fg, to his 4 3s in 38fg.

i like to point out things that people rarely mention; this time the matchup:

His backup SF Mikey Wilder was only around for 19 minutes but his +/- was -25 in those 19 minutes. Your SF who was playing most of the time had an easy time torching it up with the mismatch. I don't know why you say wrong defensive tactics, 3-2 is very good when your opponent has bad offensive flow :) . You can see his starting PG got manhandled by the zone, as well as finding it hard to drive in or get the ball to the post players resulting in him taking the most shots and also shot badly.

I'd say it's his use of +1 effort, the fact that his backups took a few more minutes than yours in an OT game, and your guys committed a lot more fouls. Given that the team ratings aren't that far off, it doesn't seem terribly surprising.

It's probably the HCA + the extra effort.

so here's a tough one:

(42818016)

How did I lose this one?
My opponent started with only 5 players so naturally you would assume, they get a little worse in the fourth quarter... well, they didn't.
After 29 Minutes he led by 2 points, when his C got injured. So I played an look inside offense with a 2 point deficit and had 19 minutes left to win the game. He played an SF on PF, so his inside-D cannot be any good, at least not against a 120k-C.
Not only I didn't win the game, but I lost by 25 points!!! he played the last 19 minutes with just 4 players and a lucky fan and during this timespan he outscored me 25:48.
So please tell me: how the **** is this possible? There isn't any explanation that at least makes a little sense...
Ok, he has home-court-advantage, but his motivation couldn't possibly be better than mine since I'm still participating in cup-games where I had some easy games, and I always told my players to TIE.
I also don't think it's realistic that a 30k SF pours in 71 points against a 120k-C, when playing on PF regardless of the type of offense he played.

I really appreciate your answers

Bad OD on your PF is the key of this game and his more effort helped too.


Apart from that, pretty weird game.
