(65828766) We score leaving 2 seconds on the clock. (I'm thinking,"okay overtime") Do they jack up a 3, take a long jumper, etc...no they get an easy inside shot to win with a "buzzerbeater". A time out to advance the ball would be realistic and then okay bad defense results in an easy inside shot. But this is ridiculous and a common occurrence.

(65828731) (I think this is the right game) With a significant lead, we're "forcing 3's every possession in the 4th (exaggeration) and then fouling too early. (The fouling I understand, but we're not a 3 point shooting team at all.)

These are my 2 most recent games that I actually watched and noticed that the game engine needs work specifically in the realistic realm, not in the new phrases realm although I do hate that every 3 point shot we take is "forced".

Obviously I'm ranting because we lost, but these were games that we had the lead late in the game and imo the issues with the unrealistic nature of the game cost us the game.

(PS I do like the game day prep because we would have been blown out talent-wise and should not be a consistent playoff contender yet.)

Quarter back style pass to a center under the rim who tips it in, can happen.

Lithuania league finals:

explained

And for fouling...I remember in some olympics i think athens 2004 or so where lithuania Nt got beat by italy at semifinals, lithuania started foul like when there was 6mins left, lowered deficit but still lose, because italy shot insanely acuratelly defended 3pts..something like 20 of 26 or so...Dont have a link but i think atleast italy fans remember this

So both examples happens in hgihest level in real life, so why not in bb?

How does the center get under the rim. He was under my rim waiting for a rebound.

The clock doesn't stop because I score. They don't have the time to set up in half court and heave that pass

well the moment from the pass to the finish is about 2 seconds so it's still possible

The clock stops when you score. The clock starts again when someone touches the ball after the ball is thrown inbounds. A quarterback pass is not outside the realm of possibility. Did you ever see how the USSR beat the US for the first time in the Olympics in 1972?

If there's anything that Olympic basketball between the former USSR and the USA has taught us, the clock starts when the ball is touched, or not, or retroactively adjusted back depending on how the scorekeeper likes what happened.

The first game is explainable.

I'm assuming this game is based on NBA rules, if that is the case, then see Section V b. (2) on (http://www.nba.com/analysis/rules_5.html?nav=ArticleList), which states: "The timing devices shall be stopped: During the last two minutes of regulation play and/or overtime(s) following a successful field goal attempt."

So, the clock was stopped with 2 seconds left, the ball was heaved down court and someone made an inside shot. Similar to this: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3_IT622Sbc)

It says the shot was guarded closely. That's pretty much all you can hope for. I wonder how Fred Gomez's inside offense (28409484) compares to Polikarp Bialik's defense (30278885).

(65828731) (I think this is the right game) With a significant lead, we're "forcing 3's every possession in the 4th (exaggeration) and then fouling too early. (The fouling I understand, but we're not a 3 point shooting team at all.)
I think you may have the wrong game on this one? Looks like you were 1-2 on three pointers taken when your team was in the lead in the 4th and 3-6 overall on three pointers in the 4th. For the game, your team was 8-20, a effective field goal percentage of 60%, from beyond the arc. That's a pretty respectable performance, the two point jump shots were more detrimental than the threes.

Soo the clock stops without a timeout. That's right, because they like to roll the ball up the court to save a couple seconds.
