Questions

Do they have to start every game?  Or does it take a couple of games off the bench before the get upset?  What about tourney time?  If you start them every game of the regular season and bench them for the tourney, do they still get upset?

I have a related question.  I have a guy that I promised 10 minutes.  I know that if I don't fulfill the promise that he could transfer and potentially negatively affect my reputation.  If I don't give him the minutes - is there any scenario where he does NOT transfer but it still hurts my reputation?  Or is reputation only affected in a transfer or cut situation.

Post season is excluded.

This is quality knowledge if this is true.  I will test it and I appreciate the help.

Does "post season" include the Conference Tourney?

I believe rep would only be hurt by a transfer. If he stays, he just will lose tons of WE and his development will be stunted.

used to be true - and you will find this on the forums

it remains true that post season is excluded

80% is not fully reliable anymore - may take more to satisfy him

One more question.  Can you start them, but give them "mopup" minutes and have no issues?

if you set as starter and mopup they wont start - if you promised a start and didnt promise minutes, consider using target minutes instead of fatigue - then he can start and get 4-8 mins and be happy

I wish they had an option so you could only use target minutes for a particular player and the rest could be on fatigue setting.

Yeah, this would be a nice addition.
