Just to add even in a non blowout game it won't necessarily be 36+12. Depends on how your starters compare to your backups and stamina.

In a blowout, the minute split will be closer to 30-18 as the coach clears the bench in Q4.

If you realize that you're going to blow the other team out, put the starts in the first 2 spots in the lineup and the sub in the 3rd spot. That will get you closer to 36-12.

Either way, getting exactly the minutes you want if often difficult.
