In my opinion your match (13246775) is unbelievable.

This is a game and you may win or loose, have luck or not and you can complain or runt or not.

But that you set up a tactic and with no reason the players don't follow that tactic I would call it a BUG.

In that game his players did indeed shoot inside until over halfway through 4th quarter, at which point they had only shot 4 three pointers and shot 4 more after they went down 6-10 points or so.

8 threes is hardly not following Look Inside, and half the threes that were shot were definitely for a reason.

so i guess i chose this tactic to have my guards dominate the game

that must be why i played my PF at SF for this game.

I did not realize that shooting lees threes means i'm following the tactic.

Juice give me a break look at who shot what and where and take a guess at which p[layers the tactic was set up for before you tell me that shooting only 4 threes for 3 1/2 quarters is following tactic.

I guess if Cleveland decides to play on shaq next year and he shoots 10 shots and they shoot 10 threes then the played correctly.

OK, I see your point: Most of the shots where inside, and reading the rules that is which technically inside focus means.

So, technically speaking this is not a bug.

I also can appreciate that even playing looking inside guards can and should try to score if they are poorly defended.

But, on the other hand, how may one then tell the guards that they give more balls to Center and PF and let them score? Specially when they are the best players of the team and are worse defended.

May be those guards have a hidden "kobe" characteristic, I think I'm gonna watch them carefully and tell you about ;)

Ok, I'm confused/frustrated after this game (http://www.buzzerbeater.com/BBWeb/boxscore.aspx?MatchID=1...)...I know I have a better team and playing at home, so I was confident I was going to win this game. I played a the right 2-3 zone defense against his look inside attack and had an offensive tactic of run-and-gun going against his 2-3 inside defense. So, why did my guys end up missing so many shots? How did his scrub PG (Fowler) dominated with 20 points shooting over 90% from the field??? All this in my own court. I know I lost my starting Center early in the game, but he was still kicking my butt regardless. Now I have both my Centers out with injuries...Great, I might as well just change my team name to "Clippers"

All the veterans, please explain to me more in depth or from your experience what does CrunchTime do against TIE?
I know it's more of a mystery land and only BB's can say what it does in code, but I want to hear your opinions, experinces, maybe facts:)

So, I lost my firs two matches of the season this week. I'm not complaining on these losses and take it pretty easy since training is my priority right now. Both games were TIE vs CT, away and home:

(13395924)
(13395931)

As I understand (read it somethere) that CT won't affect visible ratings? Boxscore does not correspond to raitings at all (rebounds, assists etc.). By the raitings there should be no question about the winner and this seems to have some point.One side thought I got: maybe I overrate ratings then making my tactical options mainly by them?

What you think CT will boost mostly? In these games my oponents got 43 and 30 FTs! Which means I commited lot's of shooting fouls (also because of the 4th quarter fouling tactic, but still it's too much). Does CT or TIE make my players foul more?

So, what you think, does CT give boost in every possible category and basically it stays hidden in the code i.e. not shown in raitings?

You tend to foul more TIE vs Normal, so with TIE vs CT you would foul even more, even if the opponent is visibly weaker. CT does not show in ratings.
I have noticed that with CT you have more luck. Starting with more opponent shooting fouls and ending with great clutch plays and runs.

ive got a new bad beat...........
i mean come on

im better than him on almost all accounts and play my defence and offence tactics almost perfect.
wonder if its a bug or extreme bad luck.

im happy its just a private league game

I will give you 3 points that were against you.
REB + FT (fouling) + FG%

I didn't lose, but I almost lost because of the stupid game engine. Winning by 26 entering the fourth, the coach decided my starters were done for the game which let the other team cut the lead by 19 points until he finally put the starters in with two minutes remaining. If my team didn't have good free throw shooters there's a decent chance I would've lost.
