What I find hilarious is last week I hire a 6 level doctor with speciality, and yesterday I got injured my PF (and almost lost the match) withouth returning to the game for 16-32 days.

Yes, it is bad luck. Always has been.

In the last season's league final the best player of my team got injured in the second quarter of the first game at home while I was leading and at the end I lost easily the game. For me it was not a problem because things like that are happening but bigger problem in my opinion was that another starter got exhausted in the last quarter because of 1 minute overplaying and exhaustion is very very very big drop in the last quarter. I was leading at the end of the 3rd and lost by 18 at the end. I really can't believe that GE can't adapt when injury happens and make little bit more(not planned before the game) substitutions if we have enough players on the bench, and I had 3 more players on the bench. I don't want exhaustion to happen if injury occur my player if I have enough players on the bench...

You follow the game, your hands are tied, you can't do anything, and if you had a 1% chance , you wouldn't let it happen.

Exhaustion is good thing in this game but effects of exhaustion are too big and not logic very often. In big games it should be little bit different than in regular games... We saw Lebron at the age of 38 playing 48 minutes 2 days ago against Denver and played really good and hard defence. Jokić played 45. Here in the last quarter they would look like playing in wheelchair..

About injuries, I think that it has to be more frequent, shorter (from 2 to 10 days for example) and maybe include a new type of injuries, that you can use your injuried player but his habilities would be reduced for a period of time

Brain storming!

Even the best doctor can't repair a torn ACL that quick!

Injuries are there to make the game more realistic. No worries, that's fine with me.
However, in reality, at least in somel European leagues, it's possible to recruit players in replacement on a a short-period contract, and to take out insurance to partially cover the possible difference in salary. But that doesn't exist on BB.
We could perhaps add paid but non-compulsory insurance to limit the deadweight loss due to the payment of the salary of an injured player.
In the end, there's only the bad side of reality on BB. We just have to cry when a player is out for some days or weeks.

This is a cool idea. It might never happen but the idea of insurance is very much in the spirit of the game.

Non-compulsory insurance is the way to go.
Every beginning of season you should decide if you buy insurance for that season or not. The price should be one week of TV revenues. If you buy insurance, whenever a player of yours get injured you don't pay his wages during his injury time.

cheap i think

Buzzerbeater never do any changes, they did one and it's worse. Why injuries? My player the last 3 games didn't play, the first 2 at the beginning of match, in red, after match no injurie, the third match, in red, after match 9-18 days out. It is necessary? He has 22 years come on!
