The kind of players harassing with full court press, double teams and running 5 out with only athletic players. I usually stop that kind of bs, but this was just not my day. I literally lost interest in playing the actual game. It's more fun building up and sniping than wasting time with these trash players...even if you win, it was all in all a negative experience. It's sad that facing a SIM opponent happens like 1 out of 10 games. So what is the key to victory? Keep calm stick to the plan, try playing slow and use plays even if the opponent sits in your face all the time? Make a cheese team aswell to even out odds? I'm really sick and tired of most of the community now. Don't get me started with the black/white courts and stuff.

I love this post. Not your misfortune, but your points.

Honestly, I have been using AUTO on offensive playcalling, with really good luck. Forces me to pace myself. If someone is running a trap defense, exploiting it should be easy. That being said, Ive had my own struggles with smother\deny offball trappers. One of which I faced again today, and dumped in his mamas mouth.

Patience is #1 for me. If I see an opportunity to fastbreak, I capitalize. Other than that, Im acting out the auto-play and looking for openings. Just because a play is running, doesnt mean you have to see it to the end for a shot to be created.

Pause cheesers frustrate me more than anything, tbh.Especially when I call a TO. I most definitely take my time, let the timeout run out, and get back out with nice and slow pace. People get really antsy about SIM/patient ballers.

Another point that I have to underline.....let these turbo idiots turbo away. Come 4th quarter, youll start seeing that little Gatorade "G" show up.
