At this point everyone knows what they’re using anyway, time for experimenting is over and it’s time to lock on what’s worked best for you with minor tweaks.
Not really, exploiting a match up could be huge.
I won a championship after being down 0-3 by adjusting my DC significantly while the other GM just let it run

Sure you can still exploit matchups...I think you misunderstood what I’m saying. My point is that you know which lineups/team strategy works for you and you make changes based on your opponent.

You’re not gonna experiment for the sake of researching what lineups are optimal regardless of opponent

Of course I would but I also would look at what worked for me, did I use the same DC each game? Was someone hurt? Did I add any pieces since then? Also do I have a large enough sample to decide what is effective or not. Odds are during the season i didn’t use the same DC every game. |

I'd argue you can't really emulate it. In real life I could say "Battie is gonna guard TD" but with DCs I have to predict where he's going to play because I don't get real time decisions. |

Difference is tho coaches do it game by game. If you found a matchup and sent DCs privately, since Spence doesn’t sim one game at a time then it might be too late for you to make changes. |

I get what you're saying, but since we don't have real time decisions, people could just keep switching their DCs in response to yours if they wanted to be scummy I like private DCs just for the match-up game-planning and adjustments after P1. With teams that are close, it adds an extra element. |

What slim .01 chance I had at winning game would have to be Battie's defense on Duncan, so I had to move him to start and hopefully match-up with Duncan. If you had him at PF I'd be screwed for sure (even though it didn't really matter haha) |

With teams that are close, it adds an extra element. no i get it, and makes it interesting for sure, but 3 games at a time can end a series if we are allowing private dcs. Im ok with the way it is just think its not as realistic as it can be |

Shaq drawing 10.5 FT's a game is ridicolous
4 of the Timberwolves are in the top 7 of fouls in the post season.

Shaq can just get Ws by himself. I'd hate to play the Nuggets because Shaq might post a 40/20/5/2/8 game multiple times
