Haha. Thanks. That was a strange game. But week one is always good for some odd stat lines.

Well I'm bringing down that average for sure.

Upset at myself for not normaling, the power of HCA+Normal on display in my game, nailed the tactics and everything :(

Yeah, you definitely called the right plays. Honestly, I think I may run 2-3 againt you to try and slow down Bland even knowing you're going run and gun. Glad that I normalled though, hate to start out with a home court loss.

Don't care about winning this game (wrote it off as a loss before it started). only a 3pt game now, but should lose regardless of the circumstances.

but 18 first half FTs to only 4, both playing the same offense? Not to mention the last game vs. the same team on the road was 42-11 for the game!?! I've been on the other side of this too & never understood it? (or liked it). Fine, it makes sense if a team is playing RNG vs 2-3 zone, and the other is playing low post. But no NBA games are that lopsided when teams both attack the basket. Save for a few notable games... that Tim Donaghey and the like "manipulated"..

If a player is aggressive, it's on both offense & defense, right? There aren't hidden offense & defense aggressiveness stats, there's just 1. Therefore it makes no sense. It should have to be A) you draw few fouls & commit few fouls, or B) you commit lots of fouls, but also draw a lot

EDIT: again talking nothing away from the Blue Stars. They deserved to win & would have regardless. Wins & losses don't even bother me. (I even said last season I'd rather have lost a game I ended up winning based on how it went down.)

To be fair, a different annoying thing. (my team benefits from this).

How many offensive rebounds can I (or any team) get off of missed FTs? For any half-way normal team to give up offensive boards like that on FTs, 1 after another, is almost a feat. (without the offensive player being called for over the back). You almost have to try to let the other team get the ball. Even a hypothetical team comprised solely of short PGs wouldn't give up as many to a team of 7 foot tall rebounders, as happens regularly in games here.

How do you know it's Mr.?
Maybe I'm a moderately unattractive female. Or a super-intelligent canine, that types by blinking.

Because why would a woman be on Buzzerbeater when she should be in the kitchen?
