Looking at the games though, in game 1, it was close near the end and his players went foul happy to try and close the game and stop the clock. While you did not shoot out the lights, you did take advantage of those free throws and moved ahead while he shot poorly to close the gap. You out rebounded him by 20, 13 of which were offensive rebounds. More attempts leads to more buckets.

In the second game, he landed a little better in the 3 pt range, he blocked 9 of your shots and stole the ball more frequently. On his home court, I can see how this would lead to the turn around. Additionally, since he wasn't down in the 4th, you were not given FTs to close out the game with. Rebounds were similar.

I assure you that my starters are much better then my reserves and that's exactly the reason why I'm making such a fuzz about it, but whatever. I'm over it.

Yeah, sure, but, as I already said, in the first game I played with my reserves. The key word would be reserves. In the second game I played with my best players and I got out scored and out rebounded. I mean, home court or not, that doesn't make any sense. I mean, at least it doesn't make any sense to me:D
Either way... I don't understand why everybody's trying to explain this through the game stats. I mean, you do realize that this is just a computer game, not a real life basketball? Its not Smedley who make/miss shots. It's not Dodge who rebounds and its not Johnson who assists. They're just a names on the screen. Its the Game engine who does all that and its that very same Game engine who decided that I will lose. Why? Well, I don't know that, but I would certainly like to find out.
