Well, yes, the coaches are a little weak regarding timeouts (i.e. not taking them at the right pace, and calling them within a few seconds of the beginning or end of an early quarter).

But ultimately, taking the timeouts at the right time is quite complicated in itself, and even harder to implement into such a game engine, so I don't blame the BBs for not coming up with a near-perfect simulation of the timeouts.

I don't blame them too,but could I at least try to ask an improvement in this important aspect of the game?

I had one game that I was winning by 12 in the 2nd quarter, the coach put all the bench and I was just winning by 3

Then in the 4th quarter, I was winning by 8, and because I have a stupid coach, he put the bench...again -.-....I was just winning by 2....then 4 seconds remaining, the opponent coach ask for a timeout...and what my coach did?

Put the bench again...and we went to OT

Then we put all the starting 54...except 1 player....my sg...that was just doing 27 points and being the capitain of the team...

I lost that game, not because of my players, but because of the coach system..

My case was similar, except my coach's stupid dicision turned out to be good...this match on saturday, i was leading until the end of 3rd quarter by about 20 points or so (it was a match I needed to win) and in the 4th quarter, my stupid coach put all my backup in the play and all my starters in the bench. I thought I was gonna lose this match because of the coach's stupid dicision...except...my backups started scoring like hell and scored more than 40 points.
I learned that at times, coach's stupid dicision is better (i was using Let Coach decide).

well, that is normal. a 20 point difference at the end of the third quarter is seen as a blowout by the engine, so it gives the subs some playing time. Usually, if the difference drops below 10 points or so, your starters come back in (and are not as tired as the opponents), but mostly, you're not gonna lose a match you're leading by 20 within 12 minutes.

I think you have problems with stamina, not with a stupid coach...

From all this there was only one thing that was clear: you need a better bench.
