Wardo...You've done a decent job with Miles to this point. Why are you hellbent on sabotaging it? Focus on the following:
- Practice minutes. You have guys losing ratings in core categories. Not good. 60% of this game is recruiting; 30% is developing your players properly; 10% is gameplanning...and that may be overstating gameplanning's role.
- Team settings...why are you playing +5 all the time? Try basing your setting on your opponents tendencies. That will call for a lot more -2 or 0, than +5.
- End of game...you need to look at your team and realize that you could be playing combo press/man at the end of games when losing. No one on that team has worse than a C- Press IQ. That's an advantage that you are not using. Make sure those end of game settings are set to actually apply in time to make a difference (i.e. not the default "losing by 10 with 3 minutes left"...that's just garbage time).
Question...[Morpheus voice]..."do you think your players are ever actually making a triangle cut?" Next season, Miles will return 4 guys that you could start. Why are you already quitting on this season and next? Properly run, that team makes the postseason in both. Why wouldn't you want to do that?
[Edit: Oh yeah! You're letting a bunch of guys that CANNOT SHOOT, shoot from range. Why? You have only 1 player that can shoot 3s. If you set Morris & Johnson to -1, that would be acceptable, everyone else should be set to -2 to keep them from wasting possessions. That would also help you win...if you're interested.]
