It would have been better not to shoot instead doing it 4 seconds before buzzer.
I'm discussing this because I would like to know if this was programming goal of BBs or it needs to be tweaked? BB's answer would be great.

Oh come on, Kossuhunt. You have the chance to win the game and you would prefer to waste that oportunity? If your player shoots with 4 seconds remaining is because he had a nice shoot oportunity. Anyway, I understand it's hard to loose like this. The odds, with 19 seconds remaining, were on your side.

Altough, i admit i can be wrong and I expect a BBs response too.

Check out the last second of OT for this game. A steal, a pass, then an alley-oop dunk for the win. All in 1 second.

Fired.
But did an injured player take FTs for the other team?

yeah this is a mystery ... the injury player got the free throwes , and he came as sub!!

GMs look my match to give me an explanation!

I have never seen the opponent not foul immediately down with less than 20 left. And then steal it and win....

After this game,I have no words to explain how the actual Ge of the last minute are just ****

28 seconds to the end,after a failed shot I take an offensive rebounds,and my guard,instead of use all the 24 second for the shots,try the lay-up after 2 second and miss the shot

Then,1 point advantage,26 second to the end,3 foul to spend,and not one used

And last but not least,with -1,and 20 second to play,my players didn't try to shot

you got an offensive rebound and went back up for the shot, nothing unusual about that.

Then,1 point advantage,26 second to the end,3 foul to spend,and not one used

there was 26 seconds left. If you'd started fouling, you would have given the other team the full 26 seconds and the last possession. Without fouls, they only had 24 seconds and you could have stopped their offense if you'd played good defense or, if they scored (like they did) you got the last possession and the chance to win the game.

And last but not least,with -1,and 20 second to play,my players didn't try to shot

they didn't shoot because you turned the ball over right at the end as you tried to get the ball inside (as was your tactic, Look Inside).




You can't blame the game engine just because you lost a close game. Of course you can analyse things afterwards and say your players should have done this or that but the things that happened certainly weren't ridiculous and real life players don't always do what seems to be the "right" thing every time either. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

You could be looking at why your teams offensive flow is so poor or other things like that but I doubt you'd be complaining about the game engine if you won the game anyway ;)

The last sequence is sort of reminiscent of this NBA playoff elimination game. Ugh!

I can blame the game engine because he make 3 stupid things in 30 seconds
In this general game engine,a lay-up from a guard has low percentages,right?So,if the game engine knows that my guard has low percentage with this kind of shot,why my player shots,while I can lose 24 seconds leave them with only 4 second for a difficult buzzer beater?It would be MUCH MORE LOGICAL if,knowing that this shot has low percentages,my player decides to give the ball out and restart a new action

Then,defence.26 second to end,3 foul to spend before bonus....it's not a good idea to foul my adversary every 4-5 second to reduce his time?In real basketball is common to use some foul if you are still not in bonus to give to your adversary less time for a shot.A real coach would never leave the adversary team to use all 24 seconds in the offensive action,leaving their team only 2 second for the last shot.And surely won't leave the adverary to scor after only 6 second -.-"

The last action...I would understand if my players lose the ball because they had only 5 or 6 second and they could give difficult thing to find a shot...but 20 seconds are enough to build a shot,at least a forced shot from any part of the field.It's not like my player turns off the ball...he simply didn't shot because he don't like to win?
