home court advantage (HCA)

and yes.... according to the second match... if you played man 2 man you would have won easily

first match lost only because of different effort and you've played on road, it was the biggest factors. second match was lost because you've had more turnovers and these 0-6 from 3pt line, probably was taken at last attack seconds, because your team could not deliver the ball into the paint. and in a close match like that, every detail counts.

2-3 zone is over valued, plus you had a bad outside defense.

M2M will work better against that team.

Lost one of the most awfull games i played on BB, this GE havent any logic. It's not really logical what happened on my game.

Was winning by 20 when just for 9 min to end the game my SG is out for fouls(was supposed to play 48 min). I had a PG with OD 8 in PG-SF substitute, but what happened? My coach decided to put the substitute of PF-C with OD 1 in the SG position.

Even if i have in orders to do exactly what i tell, its a big flaw on the GE logic.

(25767135) thoughts on this one any one?

Hey, someone could explain me what happened in my game? (26183822) I totally guessed correctly which attack he was going to use and also the match report seems to give me a clear advantage in order to win the game (it is even more incredible the average point scoring for every position that the report gives). It even looks like if I had played without the home court advantage.

This is so discouraging...

Thanks for the answers.

+10 turnovers, +10 offensive rebounds allowed, +10 free throws allowed. They're some pretty big hurdles to overcome.

Patient isn't a very effective offense most of the time in my opinion and if you're getting 23 turnovers in a Patient offense, you've really got a problem with your passing/handling.

I know the +10 turnovers is totally my fault, that's why I played patience, imagine how many could have they been using a tactic with a quicker pace. The +10 offensive rebounds allowed were something I knew it was going to happen, if the team I'm playing against is going to use Run and Gun, has normal-decent outside shooting stats and one of his players is an awesome shooter (for 5th division) wouldn't you sacrifice your rebounding for having your perimeter protected?
And well the +10 free throws allowed is totally normal if we consider that the team whom I playing against is only 5-7 points up with few time to end the game (the same tactic as always, foul and try a 3 point shot, foul and try another 3 point shot, etc.)
Really, I don't want to sound ungrateful for your opinion, and I know I have to do something about handling and passing; but I think that today's match is not reflected in the match's report I have read. Also my players' shapes were much better than the ones of my rival.

My point was that you just gave up way too many shots and weren't taking enough yourself. Any time you allow the other team to take an extra 20 or so shots in a game, you're pretty likely to lose.

Yes, the ratings and that sort of thing look nice but team ratings are just a very loose indicator of things.
