I’ve always run let them play, have you tried sit them? I’m trying it for the first time in like 50 seasons on Tue.

I wonder if playing zone defense rather than 1 on 1 helps alleviate the foul situation. I also have a player who averages 5 fouls in 33 minutes, but he is my HOF draftee so I definitely won't sell him, but getting thirty something training minutes every week hurts a lot.

I don't have proper numbers to back it up, but some time ago I noticed that my players tend to foul out while playing zone defense. That's why I never play zone defense anymore unless it's a game that won't affect my player's training minutes. I think it's somewhat related to the increase in help defense when playing zone (I remember reading this a very long time ago, that said I'm not sure how accurate it was).

Thanks. My player fouls out every game playing man to man. If like you said that playing zone defense may make it worse, I don't know what to do anymore :(

Following up, tried sit them and only had a -6 F, -8 FT, 0 foul outs performance in a double digit win. Huge success based on how this season has been going.
