thanks, forgot who it was, lol. anyway 12 of those free throws came in the final 1 1/2 minutes (intentional fouls). i was already losing 88-79, so the game was about over anyway...

idk, was just frustrating to watch. couldn't even take advantage of his top scorer being in foul trouble a good part of the game. (the player's defense drops then, right?). oh by the way, other than full court press, what is the best tactic for getting steals?

I think the importance of free throw is overated here. It's quite often that the winning sides are fouled more because the losing sides resort to the fouling strategy in the last minute. It's irrelevant to simply say that team won because it has very good free throw because

1) what matter most is why did the the match engine decide that team is a worse team up to the last minute of the game, rather than why did the fouling strategy failed.
2) if the fouling strategy worked, well, they won't get posted here.

I think what we are most interested is 1) but saying the winning side has good free throw is only answering why didn't the fouling strategy worked, which is pointless.

look at Matchups of both PG, SG and SF (probably the positions with more looks in outside offensive tactics, then the most important ones for most of these games) :

Considering higher enthusiasm and HCA your 3-2 defense was less efective than his M2M when facing the respective offense. Thus, he was the one whit the winning edge. This is also *confirmed* by the fact that even if you win the possesion's battle you were less efective at converting those opportunities into points, you can see this from the matchups optics and also looking at the "real performance" were you convert the same amount of shots but shooting 18 more attemps.

That is why you were losing the game before the foul-end-game-logic beggined.

Hmm, guess so. I just don't get how pp100 is calculated (makes no sense to me). Using that game as an example, my PF shot only 2-14 & somehow had the highest pp100 of anyone on both teams (over 100). My SF scored more points on fewer shots (5-12) & had a pp100 of 79.2..?

Anyway hope it doesn't seem like i'm whining about that game. Just wanted to see if i overlooked something obvious & learn from it.

Thanks a lot for the analysis.
I guess i expected a result more like this (17709716) or this (15480518) (the last 2 times we played). especially since they just sold their $124k per week center (which is more than my entire roster combined). Flawed thinking on my part...

Oh & real nice point 7ton. (don't want to triple post, lol)
