I'm not going to make that mistake again that's for sure! I think it's ridiculous that playing a TIE makes me lose even though my ratings are far superior to my opponents...

his tactic worked out perfect. He played home with a CT, the away team played TIE. This is a risky situation already. Then his tactic worked great, he made 30 steals, and that's why he could take way more shots than you.

I'm saving him for woodside ;) I wasn't expecting a CT in all honesty, also thought superior ratings would suffice! Obviously not!

He played FCP, that dropped his ratings a lot. I don't know why, but somehow with FCP the player skills don't add up to the game ratings.
Combining this with TIE-CT and HCA and you were playing against a wolf in sheeps clothes... Great tactical effort by your opponent I would say.

So i would've been better playing a low tempo attacking tactic rather than fast paced to counter the FCP?

If it has a realistic game: yes. The faster you play the slopier you get, the easier it will be to make a steal. But I don't know if BB works that way... I don't think you could have forseen that he was going to play CT. He just did everything right to have a chance against you.

I won with a push the ball but I had home advantage and we both played normally. They are frustrating to play against though - 32 turnovers.

But the second last league game last season, they beat me at their place 107-105. I was TIE (because of the playoffs coming up) and they went CT. They came back from 14 points down after 3 quarters

Just make sure you beat Woodside and The White Dragons

CT vs TIE + you played the wrong defense + BAD luck (considering the matchup ratings)

It would have been better i imagine if i had played 3-2zone like i intended but obviously didn't press the right one. They're going down next time!

I think also when you have a v.high enthusiasm, i.e. 11 that playing a TIE should equate to a PIN really.

Shields is ready to lay down the law at Woodside and so are the rest! Am still annoyed, was hoping for 100% record :(

Need to pay attention to my opponents more instead of just playing a strong squad in future, which is kind of the whole point of the game. Tut!
