Of course this was locked when I went to post in "...4" But if you insist...

Okay, I expected to lose prior to the game, but given the lineups and ratings... is this really the report of a 21 point loss at home?

So the overall ratings are incapable of correctly weighing participation? That's disappointing. What I mean is, if the teams ratings were (picking easy numbers) 10 for 36 minutes, and 5 for 12 minutes. The overall ratings shouldn't be 5, 6, or even 7.5... they should be 8.75. And in a game as lopsided as 21 points... that 8.75 should be higher than my teams overall ratings. I know the ratings are only guidelines, but these guidelines seem to have no bearing on reality.

I'm upset. Yes I did not have my star PG with awesome passing and defense in the game, but god damn, how do i lose when i guess the tactics exactly right?

yes ratings look horrible, but it's the french patient strategy (i always expect poor ratings)

I felt the GDP and my enth will at least get me the victory, now instead I'm gonna be in a 3 game skid cuz I play 2 very tough opponents next week. only chance i got of winning those is if CT.

If you look at the PP100, there is not one position where your team should have expected to outscore your opponent's position. Combine that with foul differential (which is unsurprising when you're on the road, using less effort and playing patient) and things unfold as they did.

Another frustrating 4th quarter meltdown, I'm guessing poor stamina played a role in this loss along with my inability to handle my opponents star player. The twist of the dagger at the end of this game was watching my SF go up for a dunk, down 1 with a little over a minute to play and promptly airball it allowing the other team to take possession and basically ice the game.
