Give me a break. If this wasn't end of season I might be real pissed. But having a player be out of action for 20 days due to "Shoulder Inflammation" is absurd.

Your team has injured player(s): Maurice Jackson +20

This has to be the longest and stupidest injury one of my teams (and I have had many over the years) has had.

If it was a senior I wouldn't care but this guy is a soph that I will need to rely on next season. I always sit the seniors and give the guys that need training as much playing time as I can. Now he will miss all the play off games and the invitational exhibitions.

At least change injuries for 20 days from shoulder inflammation (because I think that a cortisone shot can be given for that and the guy would be back on the court at least.) Make the injury be more realistic like a separated dislocated shoulder, maybe a broken finger or even a fractured arm or leg might be able to get back in to action in less than a month. But shoulder inflammation.

Pretty stupid......... Thats enough of my bitch session, for now.

Hey, Markelle Fultz missed the better part of two seasons with shoulder inflammation.

I get it, though, it's tough. But honestly, I like the realism of the injury system (except when they're only out like 10 days with an ACL tear maybe ...)

I particularly like the injuries from players playing 0 mins. what did he do? pull a hammy subbing the d for the second free throw?

The injuries are actually silly with no rhyme nor reason to them in this game. It might be nice to reduce the chance of game killing injuries for the post season at least. Because people can tend to not be all that happy, but thats the way it is. The problem and reason for my bit.h session was that the team had a descent season and had a good chance to win the playoff.

They won the first 3 games of the playoff probably due to luck but those 2 top players were definitely needed in the 4th game. I think that if those 2 guys were in the lineup they might have been able to make up the 7 point difference. Will never know now.

Didn't expect to even make the tourney being one of the teams deemed to be "out of it" and not even on the bubble but the 3 play off wins got the team in. Got killed by almost 20 points in that 1st game so probably wouldn't have done anything anyway. Never do.
