Court Time?
I just got off the phone with my parents and they suggested that I just talk to you. I have a problem. Why am I only playing about 5 minutes per game? As a junior, I should be playing at least 5 or 6 more minutes every game.

The problem with this email is that my stud post player has actually been injured. He starts and plays plenty of minutes when he doesn't have an ACL injury that puts him down to 60 health.

In the old days, the engine did not ding you for minutes when a guy was hurt. Has something changed?

No change from the old engine. if he CAN play (>50%) then he expects to play

I think the trigger is actually 60, but yes...if he's not forced to sit out, the kid is under the impression that he's able to play when he's above that floor number and will count that game toward his calculation of his playing time.

News to me fellas. I don't recall running into this before. Guess its moot anyway since he is 4 on the big board. Thanks for the info.

If you play him and average the amount that he's asking for over the next 4-5 games, he'll send an email thanking you for listening to him, calling you a good guy and recovering the minor WE hit that he's probably showing right now.
