Oh how I hate to use the words REALISM and BUZZERBEATER in the same sentence but here I go.
Teams in all major sports go on Roadtrips. example....the Texas Triangle....is when teams play Dallas,Houston, and then the Spurs all on the road. Teams out East go on 5-8 game road trips out West all the time.
I think the makers of the game like the RANDOM FACTOR.
I don't mind the crazy schedules we get but it does drive me crazy....like last year. I had to sell off a player a week before the Cup Final to get out of bankruptcy because I didn't have a homegame for 10 days.
