How is it possible for my entire team to lose a game against a team with 4 players, when I dominated in every aspect...??

Even with TIE, this is ridiculous. RIDICULOUS. Not the first time this happens, either. I'm definitely losing patience with this game.

I would like an explanation as to how something so ridiculously unrealistic can happen.

I believe that the effort for the game is not shown in the team or matchup ratings, but yeah, you got hosed on that one. The fact that it wasn't even close makes it look even more strange.

He did crunch,you did TIE (when that happens the difference is always quite massive) he was at home, he did have by far the best player playing and I don't really see where you dominated the ratings.

Frustrating, sure, but I''m not entirely sure I see the huge injustice that you see. He crunched because he thought that might make up the gap and he was correct.

My question to you would be why were you playing TIE on the road against a quality team?

Seriously. A complete starting lineup does not lose to a 4-player lineup by 20 points. And how were we even in rebounds when my rebounding was 2 levels higher than his?

This will not only likely prevent my reaching the playoffs, but possibly push me to a relegation game. This win would have put me one game in the clear in 4th place.

He didn't crunch. He played normal. He's been tanking all season.

And so he had one strong player? He also had a couple of low level bench warmers.

How can this not be an injustice? How is it realistic for 4 players playing an entire game to beat an entire squad...???

I'm 100% certain he crunched.

What do you mean a quality team?? He a winless last place team that has tanked his whole season and that I beat by more than 100 points the last time we played! I need to keep my enthusiasm up for tough games in the last couple of weeks and he was going to play 3-4 players the whole match.

Who WOULDN'T TIE against that scenario???

And how is a 4-player team with 2 bench warmers - one of which has like a 5000 DMI - a 'quality team'??

How so? How would that even make sense? It can't make a difference for his season at this point...

Mighty Ballers looked like the only team trying out there.

I guess he pulled a fast one on you. He probably crunched with that lineup as an experiment.

I didn't realize he was tanking, MB was was in D1 a few seasons back.

Yeah, I know he was - but he's in rebuild mode.

And even if he DID crunch, you'll never convince me that a 4-man team could beat an entire lineup. 4 people on a court at one time simply cannot outplay 5 if they're even close in talent. That's simply not realistic. That's putting numbers on paper ahead of how a real game plays out - and that is clearly a game mechanics issue.
