HOW DOES A TEAM GET A SHOT CLOCK VIOLATION WITH A 6 SECOND POSSESSION??

Sorry.

Well that was painful to watch, I didn't think I had a chance but to be that close reeeeeally hurts.

Just kidding, apparently it's a known issue. Still can't fathom how I can't get a shot off in 6 seconds with an outside game that scored 85 points. Oh well.

Well, I'm making some moves to correct that problem for next season. Let's either hope the draft turns out well or the transfer market is friendly. Both would be nice, but I'll take either one right now...

I think the "shot clock violation" is just a wording issue anytime either clock runs out with no shots taken.

Other issues with that game:
= Iin the first quarter (around 5:40 left), I had a possession 32 seconds long with no shot, followed by someone (Nichols I think) making a steal.
= In the opening seconds of overtime, Kelly wins the jump ball, and in the same second there are 3-4 substitutions from my team (including Kelly heading to the bench) and a shot clock violation against my Machines.

It felt so lousy to win on a "shot clock violation" though. It still feels like a stolen victory.




In lighter news, my brain reads something dirty about intercourse with a sewer mammal every time I see the name Ufuk Kirat.

How bad is your inside game if the draft could help it???

wow, the overtime shot clock/sub thing is true, that's crazy i've never seen anything like that. i'll submit a bug report or something.

the 32 second possession didn't happen, one of your guys got a shot off at 24 seconds, i fouled him, then you had another possession when nichols stole the ball.

and yeah, ufuk makes me giggle when i think of his name.

The draft comment was more about picking up an outside trainee so that I could sell one of my current trainees, which would then allow me to (hopefully) have enough cash to buy a big-man.

That said, my inside game is pretty bad. And by pretty bad, I mean AWFUL.

I just realized that my SG Marcus Nichols was for some reason picked up for the NT semi game even though he didn't play. And I also found out that he's #1 in the USA in FT made and attempted (#23 and 44 in the WORLD), how random is that?

Yeah, after trying to find it last night (and failing), I'm pretty sure it had something to do with my comp lagging.

That, or too many beers.

Your not the only one...
With staff improving player names, I'd like to see more funny sames as this.
Screw boring every day names like, Bob and Jim.. or John John.
