that's poor coaching.
Should it be written in game engine? I don't get it. Poor coaching, good coaching- where it comes from?
I still think considering this example there's room for improvement in game end logic. Or you think GE just flips a coin and some games will be decided by "bad coaching"?

Thanks Kossuhunt!

If there was something weird about the last minute, it was the absence of timeouts: no timeout for your team after defensive rebound with 19 seconds left nor timeout for us after defensive rebound with 4 seconds left. Of course, the best world for your team would have been to take the last shoot with 0 seconds to play. But too many factors take part in equation in a situation like this, and the scenario with the lowest probability to happen is the one where your player take the shoot with 0 seconds left. My opinion is that there is no GE bug when the game is tied and a team make the last shoot with 4, 3, 2 or 1 seconds remaining (maybe there was a good oportunity shoot, we don't know, and remember we are talking about youg players with low experience) but i agree that 2 timeouts should have been called in this particular situation, and we should expose this to BBs.

Just my 2 cents.

I think you understand that I'm not saying it's a bug. I am worried it's just bad design. Or maybe it's meant by BBs to be such a stupid possibility in the game:P Anyway, I hope to get some BB's comment in Global.
