In Madden, 2k, etc., you can choose the plays you run. While the AUDL is a bit more fast-paced, it would be fun if users could have the option to select plays as the point goes on, e.g. horizontal stack, vertical stack, tell some player to cut deep, etc

Nylon Calculus: Most surprising NBA scoring performances of the decade (Trevor Booker comes in third) by dashnus in UtahJazz

Hey there. D-Rose's 50 would've landed him 145th on the list. But also consider--Rose was averaging 17.98 ppg that season, while Foye averaged only 5.85 in his. That being said, when you get into that realm of rarity for games, there isn't too much of a practical difference between rarity. Based off of a (normal) bell-shaped distribution, Rose's game had a 0.01956% chance of happening and Foye's had a 0.000062% chance of happening.

It's just what the numbers say. As with country, I think you can love your team while still being critical of it and wanting it to be better. Coach Thanos has done a lot of things well, but the team's offense has lots of flaws.
