So I've clinced a NTT spot with the regular season conference win, and I'm thinking of resting my starters. @thebigweave do you know if there is any point to this? Their shooting has declined the past few games, and I'm curious if the algorithms account for season long wear and tear?

That is one of the many variables that's never quite been explained about the game algorithm. I haven't ever personally experienced players playing better after being rested, but there isn't any explicit communication stating one way or another. Personally, I never wavered from my strongest lineup in an effort to press for the best seed and easiest path through the tournament possible.

Thanks for the info!

Here's a nugget I found on the mb over there. Sounds like kmoney is looking in to adding/experimenting at least in some form going forward.

Finished at 7-11 here; #154, SOS 54. Landed a #8 seed in the third tier tourney. Gotta hope to land some height in the off-season to prevent getting outrebounded by 10+ boards every game.

14 seed in 2nd tier tourney

Out of the NTT. 4 FTA versus 26 really did me in.

[mdn82 25,510]

Somehow I beat Nixie for the second time this season. Here comes the improbable Sweet 16 run just to keep my job.

There were a lot of close 1v16 and 2v15 games, plus a 1 seed upset and one or two 2 seed upsets Not sure how that works haha
