Here is some data I collected this season on experience pops for my team:

Buddy Fraser (11770660) popped after 7/29 cup game (25715838)
He made some great plays and helped the team to a 26 point lead by the end of the third quarter. He made an assist and guarded a shot in his last 30 seconds and did not return to the court in the 4th quarter because it was a blowout.

Tracy Dotson (13005851) popped after 8/5 cup game (25728894)
Played the full 48 minutes, but otherwise nothing spectacular. He did sink a three with just over 5 to play and hit some foul shots in the final seconds of the game.

Ryan Henderson (13025141) popped after 9/4 league game (22983134)
Had the greatest performance on the court, but he also hit a jumper with just over a minute left to play resulting in a timeout being called by the opposing team.

Nicolas Branas (13025140) popped after 9/11 league game (22983152)
Did not have a very notable performance for most of the game, but dunked the ball with just over a minute left to play to extend the lead from 1 point to 3. He missed a few foul shots there at the end and grabbed a defensive rebound with 4 seconds left.

Nice theory. How to implement it on the super-smart players => the 18 y-old draftees with pitiful exp.
Do you expect them to be tranquil guys in their career?

That cool. Din't

That's really interesting. I went through all my players one night, looking at their minutes over the course of their careers....I was surprised at how many players had played very similar minutes, but there were HUGE variations in the experience. Guys that played within a hundred or so minutes of each other in their careeer, but one guy was a 2, and one was a 7.

I don't think anyone knows for sure, and its all speculation..but to me, this shows that there must be at least some varibable that factors in quality of opponents, rankings, importance of games, or something like that.

I appreciate your input, and responding to me personally after some of the garbage I took after saying what I said. Although i don't expect it, I was hoping for similar luck during this cup run...However, after reading your comments, if you are right about quality of opponents/Country Ranking...it would be highly unlikely I see that in light of the fact that my ranking is considerably higher now.

Just don't bold your entire messages and we're fine. :-)

I still think it looks better that way...but fine!! :-) haha

could it be that they ain't draftet, at least the guy with XP 7 ;) Because i won't believe that big differences *gg

Tonight I had a 1 poit cup wijn on the road hitting a GW shot. I'll record my experience on all my players, and if I do notice a change tomorrow than I'll let you know. I mean that is just about as dramatic as it gets.

If there was going to be a change, you would already see it.

Great job on the win :-)
