This is a largest essence of the game, and hence should NOT be removed.
I'm not suggesting these be removed, but when I quit buzzerbeater it will not be due to the enjoyment of following games on the GE. It will be the wear and boredom of all the other quirks. Not complaining, nothing stays exciting forever. A lot of these things were part of the enjoyment for sometime. Injuries, on the other hand, have always been a drag even if my team wasn't hurt negatively by them.
I always want to beat my opponent without any excuses. Hate to win a game based on injuries.
This is another issue, and a known problem.
The game on higher division is much less interesting, due to the fact that training is much less important.
The draft is basicaly non-issue.
Even, the tactics for a game is less important.
The main and almost the only important point is when one joined the game, as each season a team is expected to pile assets, and not getting worse...
Summary - taking the shorycut costs!
Don't have to tell me that, i tanked for 3 seasons and am training SF's. I couldn't be taking a longer road than the current one.
Tanking is a way of taking a shortcut.
I can only hope that the developers took care of that, and although during the season it looks like you are losing less, it affect you enough for the following seasons where you will earn much less.
Practically, I believe it is not really handled...
