2) This is not true... in my case, the best free throw shooters are sent to the line

If this is not true as you say....I found a bug. Because my guy never nabbed a rebound but kept going to the line.

The team who's behind will try to foul your worst FT shooter. So yes, in the end of the game when this tactic starts, you will see that your best FT shooters won't go to the line that much anymore. So it's not a bug as well.

There could be several reasons for your 1st point. Your starter for example might have made a few fouls early in the game, or his stamina might be terrible.

I've noticed that too.

It might be a presentation bug (hard to say without knowing how the ME works). If your best FT shooter gets the rebound, the very next second there's a foul, and then your worst FT shooter steps to the line - and this happens every single time - I'd say it doesn't make any sense at all.

Yes, foul the worst FT shooter but without the ball it's a technical. The moment my player got the rebound he got fouled. But the rebounder never went to the line, even though I would guess he's the one being fouled as it happened in the same second. And to protect the lead, shouldn't the coach be putting the ball in the hands of the best FTer instead of the worst? The bug comment was meant as a joke. ;)

Starter ended the first quarter with only 1-2 fouls. His stamina is as good as anyone in my team.

Yeah I agree that sometimes too many things happen in 1 second, but in this case he probably instantly passed the ball. Nothing is perfect, even the BB match engine/viewer not ;)
Maybe you could post some improvements in the suggestion forums (if you haven't done that yet. Right here (10098.1)

Just imagine that the engine tries to foul the worst FT shooter and imagine that the ball was passed, then it's allright hehe.

I understand that a lot of things can happen during 1 second when it comes to processing. Wanted some views here before I can put something concrete on the suggesstion forums.

I can imagine that the losing team trying to foul the worst FT shooter with the clock ticking down. But imagine the coach on the winning team. Does it make sense to instruct the team to pass every rebound to the worst FT shooter for the opposing team to foul? I've got 2 scenarios where the coach decisions could use a little tweak so far. Is there any more weird scenarios which could use a little change? Might as well compile them and put them all in one thread for them to change.
