might be, wouldn't know though, haven't used CT for the last 4 or 5 seasons, except in playoff

Thank you for taking the time to reply and explain. I am going to look through my own games and do an analysis of TIE vs Normal, I too do not CT anymore except in the playoffs. Learned that the hard way in my first season. I have been using Joseph's Ka's spreadsheet and I do notice the change in different enthusiasm levels of course but I was just not sure that using TIE with high levels of enthusiasm actually relatively decreased your JS, blocks and steal percentages. What I have noticed is that TIEing with enthusiasm of 8 is roughly equal to playing with normal 5 in the results I see from my own games. Anything above 8 is a real benefit and can make a big difference. I am sure there is a break even point where your enthusiasm is high enough to make up and surpass any reduction from using TIE. Again thanks for your reply and I will do a very small sample of my own games and if I find anything contradictory I will repost.

I think the GE just picked a winner out of a hat and decided to make the most ridiculous way of beating me. I was simply too good for them all around for them to beat me outright so it just makes me inexplicably turn the ball over against a Man to Man defense. My SF and SG who commit no more than 2 TOs per game both reach season highs with 6 and 7. They also somehow barely beat me on the offensive glass despite me being superior in that aspect, however I don't care about that as much as the random turnovers. This is the first game I've had where I really cannot explain why this happened.

I can.

Rule nº 1 of this new game engine:

Don't play inside if you don't have offensive flow.

I can.

Rule nº 1 of this new game engine:

Don't play inside if you don't have offensive flow.

and my team obviously confront your statement I have never had offensive flow, but I can win against lots of teams (same strength as my team) playing inside.

OMG!!!! UNBELIEVABLE STUFF AND YOU DON'T BELIEVE THIS!!!! (18366107)

I'm leading with 2 points. 2nd overtime 1 sec on the clock and get two freethrows. Miss them both they get defensive rebound pass the ball to the other end of the court shoot 3 pointer and score IN ONE f*****g second!! WTF!!!!

This game cheats big time! This totally sucked!!!! I mean big time. come on, in one sec???

If you hoop wizards can explain this, please, share me the info! I WANT MY GOD DAMN POINTS from that game!!!!

one sec. rebound, pass to other end and shoot the 3?!?!?!? IN ONE SEC!!!!!

Not only that but that rule only really applies when you have terrible guards vs a overwhelming perimeter defense. This was not nearly the case. They were a meager inept(high) in perimeter defense. My guys have been playing against better defenses all season, yet now they are commiting extremely high turnover numbers? Complete BS.

Maybe you lost because you made way too many turnovers? Maybe you lost because your SG took 23 shots because he can't pass the ball to someone else who's in a way better position to score than him? So maybe you lost because of the missing abilities of your team to pass the ball to someone else?
