This ends at midnight tonightfought my way back to over .500 at 18-17, including winning my last 2 games by a combined 157 points![]()
currently on a 5 game winning streak with an average margin of victory of 42 points
Starters by position, everyone else random, I think.Question on all star selections... do they do it by position at all, or just best 24 players by whatever metric they use?
then start him?I've noticed something that's happening in this SIM: Cousins is currently averaging 27.4 minutes per game. In my lineup settings, he has never been below 30 minutes and is currently at 32 mpg. Yet every game I see he's only playing 27-28 minutes. Kyle O'Quinn is averaging 15.4 mpg and he has never been set above 15 and is currently at 10 mpg. O'Quinn is the starter though. I can only assume this is why O'Quinn is constantly over his mpg while Cousins is below. Has anyone noticed anything similar with their team?
No idea what it'd happen that way but it definitely is. Those extra minutes I need Cousins on the floor could be the difference in a few games....
Yeah it's always been like this, or at least that's how I've always set minutes, setting starters a little under what their actual target is so it balances out. I think what happens is that the sim tries to play everyone close to their target minutes throughout the game, but in the final 5 minutes or so if the game is close, it will play your starters the rest of the game, leading to starters having more than their recommended target minutes and bench players with less.I've noticed something that's happening in this SIM: Cousins is currently averaging 27.4 minutes per game.

this must be why I'm fighting to make the playoffs and extend my playoff streak to 5 yearsthe sim sucks.
He have the 1200 min amount of minutes?jomar said:so the guy who's 6th in MVP voting can't make the All Star team?
My squad takes down Koya and Dubs before the break, then comes back to lose to last place Reboundaly Challenged![]()
looks he was just short. SIM doesn't like playing him the 30-32 mpg I've been trying to give himHe have the 1200 min amount of minutes?
coach's office > status reportI wish that, like baseball, you could see when I guy is about to get fatigued rather than finding out only once they are.
Would definitely help distributing minutes if I know that a guy was at say, 103% vs. 115% and therefore close to being fatigued.
Right. The percent that is listed on the status report is the current status... if someone is at 97%, you know they are "already" fatigued.coach's office > status report

If the player is enough "over" 100%, their recommended minutes goes up.Right. The percent that is listed on the status report is the current status... if someone is at 97%, you know they are "already" fatigued.
But for those listed at 100%, I don't know if they have a cushion of 100 minutes before going to 99%, or 5 minutes. Other than doing a manual calculation of min played vs. total minutes available pro rata, you only find out "too late"
Ready to get within one game of Mcwallum.
1-4 so far, by far my toughest matchup.

Courtney Lee is at 100%. Never seen that before.The refs have stopped play. Courtney Lee is in a lot of pain and is being checked by the trainers. Looks like Lee was just shaken up. He should be able to return.
I had exactly the same message a few games back with Reggie Jackson, same situation.Courtney Lee is at 100%. Never seen that before.
I can't afford OT games, let alone double OT, #### you Kevin Love!

Looked at last year's final summary. Looks like 4 teams to the playoffs.So... playoffs (it is 6, not 4, and two byes?)
4 total, or four from each conference (either way tighter than I thought... if it's only the two division winners and a wild card each, wow).Looked at last year's final summary. Looks like 4 teams to the playoffs.
4 total. Division winners.4 total, or four from each conference (either way tighter than I thought... if it's only the two division winners and a wild card each, wow).
Just saw this in the FAQ (probably should have started there). Now really confused if you actually did this last year and it was different:4 total. Division winners.
Barn burner with 300 total points scored in KAT vs. Westbrook, the rematch
I was going strictly by the end of season email. It only listed 3 match-ups in the playoffs, but I went back to 2015 when I made the playoffs. It lists me as a 5 seed. It must be 6 teams from each conference and the league summary email only talks about the conference finals and finals.Just saw this in the FAQ (probably should have started there). Now really confused if you actually did this last year and it was different:
C. The Playoffs (FULL-SEASON ONLY)
At the end of the season, the top 6 teams in each conference will be seeded in a 4 round playoff, with each round being best of 7. The format will be as follows:
For each conference, the division winners will be determined based on overall record, head to head record, division record, conference record, and then total point differential (your points - opponent points). When determining division winners, head to head record is your record against any teams with the same overall record as you within your division.

When determining division winners, head to head record is your record against any teams with the same overall record as you within your conference.
Teams 1 and 2 will receive first round byes.
Team 3 will play team 6 and team 4 will play team 5 in a best of 7 series, starting at the lower seed's homecourt and alternating locations in a 2-2-1-1-1 format.
The winner of the 4/5 game will play the number 1 seed and the winner of the 3/6 game will play the number 2 seed in a best of 7 series, starting at the lower seed's homecourt and alternating locations in a 2-2-1-1-1 format.
The winners of each of these series will meet in the conference finals for a best of 7 series, starting at the lower seed's homecourt and alternating locations in a 2-2-1-1-1 format.
The conference champions shall meet in the League Finals for a best of 7 series, starting at the team with the better overall record and alternating locations in a 2-3-2 format.
