If you put "stricly follow depth chart", exaclty the coach be this.
If you start 6k player and are lossing the match, the coach undertand that this player is more important to try win this game - even you are lossing under 40pt -, independly if back-up have 300k salary.
But, if you put "coach picks from depth chart" or only decide, the back up and reserves will play most.
6.3k sg was substituted only for 1 minute with 240k
*PG you said. SG and PF not subs.
See too foul trouble, if play or sit, this interfer too on subs.
GE is are "very crazy" sometimes on matchups... but the court coach is loyal to your orders EVER
