I have an interesting idea... why don't we let managers set how much they "like" a player... and this could bump the rating the coach uses to decide whether the player gets to play. Therefore if you think the GE is overvaluing the skills of player X then you could downclick how much you like that player and the GE would react accordingly. This would give users a fun, flexible, but not perfect control over minutes that would be sort of realistic to how much control real GMs have over coaches.... hey isiah i want you to play little nate robinson more, brown isn't gonna listen 100% to isiah's rantings.. but he get more PT than he would otherwise...
