Why would you whine about losing?

Looking at the post you responded to, I am royally confused.

30 turnovers is a lot and your ratings were lower then your opponent think if you play this match 100 times you lose 70 times

im not sure how ratings work is there a topic or a guide on it

you can compare the outside scoring vs outside defense and same for inside scoring vs inside defense. Then you can find out where you were stronger then your opponent. And you will see that there was not much of a difference but they your opponent was a bit stronger then you.

Try to focus your training on outside or inside en train your young players thats the only way to get better

look at this (4434207).

played at home against a great team (pretty equal by strength to my team) but yet, should at least give a decent fight...
Worst scoring percentage ever.
How did he get this advantage in Rebounds?

I'm shocked...

How did I lose to a team that TIEed me with these ratings........

Looks like foul trouble did a number on you.

Interesting thing is that my opponent had high enthousiasm. Might that have played a role?

Fouls have been high throughout the game, but are exaggerated because I was behind in points in the end of the game.

easy..you lost some important Match Ups..his PFs dominated yours..same on SF!!

Check out the final quarter, what the hell happend there even though they CT'd is this even meant to be possible!?

wow this is getting complicated,

i think talent overall is just a gauge of how or probable your game will be played,

its like seeing the lakers going against memphis after the gasol trade, you can see a disparity in talent but how the game goes is another.

what could affect a game big time

1. foul trouble - if you best guys are sitting what damage can they do
2. hustle and aggresiveness - talent alone cannot work without hard work, that was use to be teach even by moses malone to barkley. if you tie vs a weaker team you have already level the game, before it should be 80-20 chances that you win since you tie him that chances becomes lower.
3. strategy - no matter how good your player is, if your opponent strategy makes your player adjust his game to where he is not comfortable then expect your guy to not perform well. imagine dwight howard guarding a forward or center who can shoot long bombs he has to go out. or i do believe there are times switches happen in the game engine and that where youll find a discrepancy.

ill try to check that rebounding issue, even if your skill level is higher if he made a gamble that work for him expect youll get a hard time,

an example is i know someone who is going against a 20++k salary power forward, but since his 2 best defensive big man are centers having each only 8 and 9k salary he decided to both play them at the same time not thinking what happens to substitutes.

and as the game goes that 20++k guy never even reach 15 points and his rebs is only 8 from the usual double digit.
