so to SOME extent this is realistic.. players coming back from injuries take a little while to get back into the swing of things and can't play full minutes right away. If form can't be put back to normal in a week or two though I think that's probably too much.

But especially in scrimmages you don't play to win, but to get new players in shape, give some players extra playing time, or to recover from injuries.

Besides this, I think setting the lineup is also strategic. You don't want to play your best players all the time. Especially if you need them in the second league game, or to win that important Cup game. Therefore I think it is not a good thing that the starters play less minutes than the bench. It is not like that in the real world as well.

P.S. Something else. According to FIBA rules and regulation a technical foul is awarded with two free throws + possesion. At the moment this is not the case during the games if I am not mistaken.

BB doesn't use FIBA rules - it uses NBA rules.

I got hit with this one in my last scrimmage, hopefully my form will be reasonable before the playoffs.
