HI,
I wonder if someone can help me. I train PF/C. I try to play them whole 48 min in signle game to get max training. I set starting player also as back up and reserve, I set ''let them play'' in foul trouble and ''strickly fallow defth chart'' for subs. But somehow every game they get substituted in 4th quarter by PG os SG. Does onyone know how to fix this problem ?

To do this properly you need to make sure you don't have any extra players sitting on the bench. If someone isn't listed in the lineup at starter/reserve/backup but is still active on the bench in the game, they'll come in during the 4th quarter in blowout situations. I generally use 2 players at a position, 1 as starter, 1 as reserve and backup. For positions I want 48 minutes for one player I list them as you did, starter/reserve/backup all three. Then make sure anyone not listed is moved to the inactive (right) side at the top of your set lineups page, and you should be in good shape assuming no foul trouble or injuries.

The problem is that often in the scrimmage you sometimes want some spaz who you wouldn't dream of playing during the league games to come into that one game and have 48+ minutes. At the same time you are trying to manage to minutes of your other players so may just want for example your normal PF to play as backup SF so they have the right number of minutes for the week but then they decide to randomly log 2 minutes at C. Of course it is a blowout because the guy I was playing for 48 (well 46 it turns out) minutes at C was an atrocious stamina spaz. That is annoying!

If you want to get a player 48 minutes you must dress 9 players, the player you want to get 48 mins for should be listed as the starter, backup and reserve (yes, all 3) Set up your starters and give each of them backups; remember only dress 9 players. Now for strategy, if you use faster offenses your 48 min player may get into foul trouble and foul out, so if you can use slower or just the Base Offense. Also use strictly follow depth chart. These steps will help maximize your chance of one player getting 48.mins

Best

Never have that problem. My starters usually log 70+ mins a week because I can fit 2 league games into 1 training week.
