the game engine is broken
all else equal, teams with more talent should win...didn't happen here


If I counted correctly, three point shots contested by your "PG" went in at a 7-15 clip. Even with a 3-2 zone, you had less total OD than your opponent had outside scoring despite the double GDP, and it certainly looks like your trainee was a hole in the zone. I know we've all struggled with just how dominant outside shooting has become, but I think in this case it's more of the bad matchup than the normal outside shooting dominance or bad luck.

how were you able to count?
I mean, I'm going to continue to be negative and build up my "GE is broken" kayfabe...that works better than admitting my team sucks hehe


Play by play. I did a control-F and searched for simonen and tried to keep track of how many times he was listed as the defender on a three point shot. When I'm being extremely pedantic I actually will track all shot types for the player in question and type it out in a notepad document, but in this case I decided just to focus on the threes because it was close to lunchtime and I was hungry. I just re-counted and got 7-15 again, but I'm still a little hungry.

so I should have played M2M and played the odds that one player beats me on 3s and not the entire team?
b'c the rest of the team went 2-9 from beyond the arc


That may have helped, or it might not have. If one of his guards or SF were a much worse 3 point shooter, maybe you'd lock him on that guy and hope that your guy sucks less. Maybe you have one of those lucky days where a guy that should hit 60% of his threes against him instead does something like 1-12, or maybe it's one of the admittedly rare occasions where the game almost notices the mismatch and he hits something like 6-8.

Pretty interesting is amount of opened shots he was 17/24 and you 26/53. So this should be the key, how and why he managed to have such great numbers with so little attepmts. You were equal at contested shots with about 40% acc. (while he shot 71 contested and you just 34). This is where defensive leaks came from (you couldnt defend more contested shots)

Most of them where against Simonen (11/26 defense! 7threes, 7js, 1dr), Eresma(14/20) and then Kholdeev(7/13). So he shot mostly through your 3 bigs when using oustide focus..
