good luck. you may find in a few weeks maybe but people will have even more money to spend

Has anyone figured out subs or am I just that stupid? I can't get my starting PG or SG to actually play. I have my subs set at 7 mins total, yet they consistently play 20+ minutes. Now for my PG I guess it doesn't matter since his backup is fairly similar, but my SG is my 2nd best player, I'd kinda like him to actually play.

So what I've seen so far is: There are bad teams and there are good teams even in Season 1, I've also seen that players playing the whole game don't ever really get effected by fatigue or get worse?

They do. Energy is most important late in games and late in the season.

Yeah well tell that to the team in my league whose players only sub for foul trouble, other than that they just play all 40, yet all of them except for the PG dropped double figures on me and the team is 7-2 now, yet the play day in and day out.

Also is it normal for my players to be so inconsistent I don't even know who I should start any more? My SF had a 26 point game, then had a 3 point game and fouled out.

It is a long season. It'll catch up to him I've seen it happen time and time again. Play the season, not the individual games.

The crap part about subs is they all go in at the same time so essentially you are playing your 2nd team. Also if you have 1 guy subbing 2 places the game plays the backups backup when it subs. The way the game subs is killing me. I have such a crappy team I need my starters in there yet they have to rest it appears 2 minutes each quarter to keep competitive. But in putting them in all at once I can't overcome the points they give up. My 2 quality subs, a guard and a pf, are not subbing for the 2 guard positions or the pf/c spots. So far the sub system sucks. It is contributing to killing my team

Another thing. I played a no manager team and barely won. Team rating 11 mine 20. His 9, 10, and 12 rated guys owned my 16, 19, and 19 counter parts for over 20 points each while my guys scored 13, 18, and 6. WTF? I am really souring on basketball.

I apologize if this was answered somewhere else, but is there a penalty for not having a player at the recommended height for a position? In the guide it just says that "tall players are good near the hoop and short players are good away from the hoop," but is there an actual penalty?

Not an actual penalty in game, but your players ratings for that position won't be as high as it would be for his natural position. Obviously attributes play a role the ratings too.

how many players can a non-PRO manager have before having to pay a penalty for too many players?

It's the same for both Pro and non-Pro managers. 20 players, after that you get a fee.

Does knowledge of offensive and defensive tactics grow during friendlies?

Someone on this thread, I believe, was asking for help compiling tactics data. I have tracked my tactics during the first half of the season and would be happy to share, but cannot remember the identity of the original poster. Please advise.

Yes, but I'm assuming that it grows slower than it does in competitive games (like chemistry, experience, energy, etc.).

I am probably missing it somewhere, but what is the end of season schedule? how are the playoffs (if any) structured? Can someone enlighten me on where that info is?
