No worries. The reserves will only sometimes get minutes, they are not gauranteed minutes. For example I played 2 positions with a starter, no backup and i have a reserve. The starters played all 48 minutes and the reserves got no time at all. So it is really up to the in-game coach as to whether the reserves play or not and for how long they play.

Also it might be possible that the reserve played 8 minutes because your starter got fouled out? Or the in-game coach thought the reserve was better than the starter at that time.

Actually, there wasnt much foul trouble. It must be because my backups were also my starters, so the coach turned for a few minutes to the reserves to provide rest.

Yes, as far as I've read, it depends on the stamina of your starters, and on the kind of tactic (slow/fast), you're using...

F.e.: If your starters have low stamina, and you're playing fast tactics (let's say run & gun, and full court press defense), your backups/reserves will get more playing minutes.
