SO I had a pf that shot 4 3's in one game.  NO biggie right.  The 30 games prior to it he shot a totoal of 1.  Ok no biggie right.  The settings were exactly the same nothing changed but he he shot 4 times the 3's he shot the entire season prior.  Also how is it possible for to bigs with ath in the 90-'s and reb in the 90-'s to combine for 2 rebounds.  WTF is going on.  ok there is my rant what a fu*k*ing joke

Well, at least to my eyes what you 'did wrong' was get into foul trouble early, which got you tired out early, which snowballed.  As for his threes. . it looks like two of them occured in the last minutes 'Everyone chuck up threes to try to catcch up' bit.  And those two posts played 23 minutes combined. . so while yeah, 2 rebounds is low. . .both of them put together had about the minutes played of one starter.  Although GOrman, for only playing 14 minutes, still had a nice game.  What I would wonder about is why they played THAT few minutes

Well as far those two starting rebounders goes. They got into early foul trouble and hardly played. Plus rebounding is broken.

looks like he beat you on speed down low. pretty badly. Plus he shot 49%.  The biggest thing though. Your big men play 14 minutes and 9 minutes. So that ends that problem.  Your guards had 5 (17 minutes)and 4 fouls. so ur bench was in all game long and your worrying about a few extra 3's? you were getting whipped after the first half so maybe the engine makes u try and catch up by increasing three point frequency

I see the minutes were low but why would they be they each only had 3 fouls.  Also the big that shot all those 3's and shot 10 times also had a distro of 2 the lowest on the team.  Ive never screwed up this bad and really want to knwo how i did damn i suck  or maybe his team was just that much better?

I don't think you screwed anything up, it just happened.  You are slower than he is, and your DEF ratings are not great, so you fouled more, that meant your bench was in more.  I'm really starting to think that unless there is a guy you really want to push for POY, 0 is the best setting for distro.

it happened to me once before too. it seems to me if you losing badly and somone is in semi-foul trouble they go conservative. which is bad because then you lose worse. Going through ur game and just using ctrl+f to go to where he was in the game, he missed a dunk, a layup, and two tip ins. thats 4 shots that anyone and everyone should take regardless of distro.

Ya i suppose It wasnt me but i just feel like I did something wrong and want to make sure I learn from it and do not do it again.  I feel like his speed down low was better but my ath was better.  I also thought I was way deeper then him down low.  I had gorman at 24 distro, sequin 14, smith 10, cook 12, johnson 6, blevins 3 and everyone else at 2.
