Is there anything I can do to limit turnovers? My pace is currently normal, I have an inside focused offense so I've tried slow and very slow paces and it hasn't made a difference. Last year Stockton averaged 11 assists and 2 TOs most of the season, this year he's at 8 & 3+. It's not just Stock though, all my starters are averaging over 2 TOs a game.

I've got the exact same problem. I've switched around with the paces, but nothing seems to lower the turnovers. At this point I'm just rolling with it, but some advice would be appreciated from the more experienced.

And also, advice on foul trouble for my bigs. I messed around with the trap, and even put it to "never", yet my bigs foul out.

No one has any suggestions for limiting TOs?

Slow down the offense, move the player who is committing the TOs down the options list or off entierly.

I'll try that. I've used every pace and all my starters are over 2 TOs a game so I don't know if it will matter. Thanks for the help though, I appreciate it.

I have been wondering if anyone knows of a college football or basketball game similar to this where you could recruit kids from the past?

The maker of FBB also made FBCB, which is the college version. It's pretty fun. But making all the rosters is such a pain, not sure how much support there is for league files.

Every year a player is on a team without getting cut, he earns a bird year. Once he has at 3 bird years or more, the team that has him can offer him max starting year/max increases/max years when he enters FA (regardless if you are over or under cap).

These in-season MLE's seem to be worth something as I've seen them traded. I have mine I guess, cause I don't remember using it. A) What is it used for once the season starts?, B) What value is it to someone that is trading for it?

Generally, it's just used as a filler in a trade.

So if someone wants Ralph Sampson, and I want a first and 6 million in expiring contracts, and they don't have any expiring contracts, then an in season MLE would be perfect to be a filler for that trade.

With Cummings out right now, I don't think tactics will make much of a different right now. He comes back in 11 days, so once he's back adjust then.

Your team has been running an outside offense which I don't think is a great idea, so I would switch back to balanced and run through Cummings.
