Just the last one, and the worse, but almost any of my matches this season can be in this thread (13104682)

Just wonder how can be my FT% so low and my opponent so high, given each one ratings and that my team played patient...

<ironic>killing me softly with this season, this season... GE</ironic>

And if my match looks difficult to explain, tell me about this one of my conference leader... (13104689)

Yes, the fouls, but, given the ratings, why the best defenders get fouled so much whilst the worst defenders not?

What exactly do you not understand in both of those games? What are the enthusiasm levels of both teams. I do not plan to cycle through all your league games (who CT's who TIE's etc).
In both of these games the winner put more into the game. So winner crunching or loser taking it easy has determined the outcome in these games.

So, you never can TIE this season, even if your enthusiasm is above 10 and playing home against a team with worse ratings?

if this is your explanations, this is something new, because past seasons you can play TIE at home and win most of the times.

And if that explains all, this has become a very stupid game, without any long term strategy neither season planification, just play CT all the time...

I asked what is your enthusiasm and are you aware of your opponents enthusiasm?
Every time you TIE a game it's a risk. Every time the opponent CT against you it's a risk.
In the last game you played one of the worst offencive tactics in the game (in my opinion), why not go princeton and FCP:)
Let me guess you do not have enthusiasm @10 -> because you have tied 2 cup games in 2 weeks. You used normal in 3 games.
Your recent opponent Os Cabaleiros has done exactly the same in his last 5 games. Tied both cup games and normaled 3 games.
Now you both went into last game with the same entu.
He Normaled (prolly) and you TIE (prolly) and lost the game. So to me it seems that the game has not become dumber, but the user is becoming dumber.
If you lack the skill to analyze your opponents please do not rant in the forums.

LA-Kukoc thank you for your thoughtful analysis, but I wouldn't insult anyone neither would speak about his lack of skill based on a guess, specially ignoring his own words.

If i've said my enthusiasm is over 10 is because is TRUE, i've playing TIE all this season except the one against Massama (which I also lost cause of the fouls)

May be I'm a dumb manager because for still playing TIE when it's obvious that this season is worthless, but then I should rant about that, because the effect of the enthusiasm changes this season may be greater than intended and there you are those mactches that showing that: If you have better attack, better defence and better all in general an still lost playing at home just because you've played TIE something is definitely wrong...

I would not call the game stupid if I do not understand something.

How can you call this last team weak? He has a good roster (he has a good game shape on players), what's more important an even roster. You tryed to play the last game with 7 players, which is not optimal at all considering substitution patterns. You might have great stamina or you try to keep your starting lineup on the floor with crap tactic like patient.
I looked at the last game again. Can you get over the I have this rating on those guys and this rating on those guys. My team ratings are extrasuperawesome. If you read the forums then the ratings do not show everything. In your game you shot bad from the floor (compared to your opposition), was it a result of tie or tactics not really sure (I'm not planning on watching your game live). If a lot of the shots were taken late in the shot clock or even when it expired then it's a bad shot. Adding to this your C went 0-8 from the line. Total of 3-16. You lose 13 points just from free throws. I get it that you were the better team last year. Perhaps other have made purchases and gotten better. Or have better trainers, trainees etc.
A lot of the teams in your league tie so it's not really easy to figure out who has what level of entu. But I'm pretty sure that you played normal against CB and AXA because these guys tend to normal a lot and it would not make sense for them to tie teams they can win. So takin this under the consideration your entu was not 10 on game day with Os. With your 2-6 record I would not think about tieing all the games, you might find yourself in relegation battle.
Still I find nothing surprising in your last loss. You obviously were the weaker team for 2 quarters, started to come back after half time, dominated his subs in 4-th. Reasons: bad shooting (tactics?), bad FT shooting, Normal vs TIE, trying to play the game with 7 players, perhaps a little bit of bad luck aswell.
I'm done talking about this matter now. GL in the future.
