Second Team:
Canada Purple Haze BC
Have to agree with the Palominos
not just 4 players but 2 of them under $3000 salary
every team plays them TIE all season and wins by an average of about 80 points
BAD BEAT INDEED!!

He played 5 guys, the 5th guy or lucky fan just isn't very good. But he did have 8 rebounds, 2 steals and a block in this game. Plus you let his two star players score 101 points between them. That's your bigger issue.


Oh, because that's realistic? An engine that allows a fake player to play and get 8 rebounds, 2 steals and a block?

Think about it with an extreme example. IF the Miami Heat were playing a mid level college team and James, Wade, Bosh and their 12th man then pulled a guy out of the stands to be their 5th, wouldn't you still bet on the Heat to win that game? That's kinda what happened here.


Not at all comparable. The comparison is the Heat playing LeBron and Wade, a bench player and a last minute development league callup, with a fan filling in as the 5th player, then playing the entire Pacers squad and winning by 20. Never going to happen in a million years - even with home court and CT vs TIE.

The game engine does draw a line drawn on when a team isn't good enough to beat your team in this scenario, you just don't like where the BB makers have put that line.


Because that line is apparently when a D5 team with 2 players and 0 enthusiasm plays a Naismith team with max enthusiasm. Then apparently they might lose. /end sarcasm.

His other 2 starters have $120,000 total salary, both have high gameshape and both of them scored 50 points on a high percentage. Plus he crunched (BOTs obviously don't crunch).

I don't know many early season BOT teams that play games with all of those things.


So SP, I guess your main issue is that the game isn't realistic? Sorry bud, but this game has never been realistic.

I still don't see the issue here based on what I've experienced playing this game. Obviously you disagree and others will too.

Good luck the rest of the season bud.

His top 2 starters have $111,000 in salary and game shape of strong and proficient. My top 2 starters have $114,000 in salary and game shape of strong and prominent.

His other players has a combined salary of less than $6k; a DMI of 71500 and 5400, and each a game shape of strong. My next two players had a salary of more than $67k, and a DMI of more than 850000, and game shapes of strong and proficient.

Not to mention I had a 5th starter with a DMI of 95000 and strong game shape.

So what does that mean?? If we compare those number I still pwn him.

We all have our share of games we want to rant about, but that's not gonna change the results. It's not like they're gonna re-run the sim of that game for you.

But there there... Vent... Vent it all out. Haha!

Just to add in, the fact that RNG was used probably contributed to the massive scores (and 20 pt lead). Also since his SG and SF were stronger than yours they beat you when you used M2M def using RNG. Meanwhile you used RNG when your advantage seems to be at the bigs positions

MB lost by just 12 last Saturday at home with the same 4 players. The TIEvCRU was enough to win. Perhaps the score is a *little* out of control.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

Prominent game shape is impossible.

This is a unique game. He had every advantage imaginable, so won despite a much weaker lineup.

Also remember that inexplicable things happen in sports. I play football and last year there was a team that we lost to 3 straight times, and then in our fourth game we won by 23 points. I also play hockey. A few years ago my team beat a team 9-1, and I had 5 goals that game. We played them again a month later and lost 3-2, and I didn't score. Sports are unpredictable. The better team does not always win.

Exactly. And to a team that is at the same level as I am. so he loses 86-74 in an outside game at home then, and now all of a sudden scores 50 more points and wins by 20 just because of a CT?

Sorry, I don't buy that.

It's called trying.

Watch a Bruins/Leafs game where the Leafs don't try. 4-0... 5-0...

Now watch. They are crunching.
