yeah, I actually was hoping he would make that FT, so the clock wouldn't start running before I actually could pass that ball.

that actually made me think I needed a 3 pointer.

then, when he missed it, I thought, no, not enough time to rebound, pass and shoot (it had to be a short pass, long passes last to long) and was again thinking NOOOO no 2-point shot, I need 3!! stupid... and then realised 2 was enough. Indeed only possible in a PC game, unless it was like 1 sec and 89 hundreds of a sec , but even then...

I never expected this, I thought I'd loose by at least 20 points from this team. My defense performed very very good, much better then expected, and I must admid I had a lot of luck there to, but even then, his offensive rebounds where realy killing.

Playing the game over 10 times would make me lose 9. I just roled a 20 on a 20sided die...

still that 3pt shooting was amazing to even make it close(!) anyway since i already knew you would at least tie the game, was *shocked* seeing that missed free throw, haha. (felt certain he'd make it & you'd make another 3 to tie)

well in real life teams normally call a quick timeout & move the ball to half-court. which would probably result in a similar quality shot anyhow. that reminds me -- i actually lost a game like that. made a huge comeback & instead of going for the tie, shot a quick 3pt shot for the lead. but there was 1 second left... so the other team calls timeout & dunks on me to win -_-

Your game I think have a problem

So....in the beginning you have the ball, you steal the ball from your own player??

It's akward o.O

didn't notice that yet, might that be a bug with the link?

I fouled his player (and sadly he got injured) which means I didn't have the ball. Yet the shotclock counts on my side, which isn't realy right...
But that's not the point.

The point is I considdered myself lost when I was behind 10 points with just 39 seconds to play...

Take a look at last minute and please comment: is this normal and desired game end logic by BBs?

thats a tough moment. nothing impossible though. young players do make such mistakes in real life as well - take a shot too early

I'm worried about GE game end logic here from coach side also: why there was no time out taken before the last attack?

I can do some fantasizing and come up with hundreds of interpretations to real life, but come on! these would be more like anecdotes. I don't think BBs wanted such illogical ending to happen with GE programming at clutch?

Kossuhunt,

I agree with the lack of timeouts, as i already exposed in portuguese forum. Your team's last shoot with 4 seconds ramaining... it's basketball, played by young players, and not an illogical situation. To find the best of the best shoots with exactly 0 seconds remaining would have been the best scenario for your team, but the most difficult one.

It would have been better not to shoot instead doing it 4 seconds before buzzer.
I'm discussing this because I would like to know if this was programming goal of BBs or it needs to be tweaked? BB's answer would be great.
