Hey folks.
I didn't lose this game (thank god)- but I would still like to see if anyone here has got any explanation to how did it happen that I took less rebounds than my opposition, even though my rebound rating was much much higher-

Your opponent's starting C seemed to dominate the boards. While it's still not enough to explain the disparity, I imagine his individual matchup there was the primary reason the numbers came out as they did - it looks like he's a player who's been dominating the boards at your level all season while your C is far less effective there. I'd have to look more at when his main PF picked up his offensive boards for a better idea, but I don't think there's a particularly good explanation to be found other than sometimes a little better doesn't translate to performing better. Luckily it wasn't enough to change the outcome of the game.

How did I lose this game? We played at the same effort level and our rosters are pretty much the same. I had better game ratings than him. We played at his home court, but seriously, 16 points??

Your team had 4 OD. He played motion and shot ~50%

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

Tough one. You have both a significant enthusiasm advantage looking at schedules and a significant GS advantage looking at rosters.

1) HCA of course.
2) How is the OD on your SF/PF? They got blitzed.
3) Maybe not enough OD on the whole team? Quite a lot of fouls against PTB.
4) A terrible 4th quarter. Stamina issues?

Still, an unexpected result how I see it. I could see how you would question it.

thanks for the response!

my superior pr-manager has a specialty of national appeal, shouldn't that have balanced the HCA a little?
OD on SF/PF is strong and mediocre respectively. Don't think its stamina either, coz the lowest is on my C and it's average. Just can't wrap my head around that embarrassing 4th quarter :(

if his pr has crowd enthusiasm then it cancels out

it may be one of the 95/5 type game and when the ge ran it spit out a win for the 5 team

I wouldn't say it's that unexpected - the team that won had better PP100 at every position but PG. The SF/PF annihilation was absolutely a major factor - the PF is shooting 40% from 3 this season and was being guarded by a C, while the SF is a SG and was being guarded by a PF. The extra offensive boards were exactly offset by the extra turnovers forced, and in the end the three point shots plus foul differential ended up being the decider.
