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.

The hole in your logic is self-evident. If his SF, which naturally is an SG, was being poorly guarded by a PF, then why doesn't it work the other way around? That is I was attacking inside so inversely my SF, a natural PF, was guarded by an SG in the post and should have been destroyed but it just didn't happen.

It's some sort of a glitch in the engine.

Well his SG most likely had good OD and possibly decent ID, making it harder for your bigs to penetrate the lane, especially if they do not have good handling and driving. Many people say that you do not need that much ID as long as your OD prevents them from getting inside. It does not exactly work both ways.

Your players at SF hit basically half their shots. His SF hit half his shots. But many of his shots are from three points. The other difference is his guard at SF will help prevent the ball getting to your PF because he'll have quite a lot of OD to help prevent a pass from getting low, while on the other end he'll be standing behind the line and your low-OD big man can do nothing to prevent him from getting the ball or, apparently, from shooting three point shots over him. There's a reason that the players he had at SF and PF are shooting 40%+ from beyond the arc this season and if you're defending them with big men, you surely can't expect better.
