I'm not sure if this is just how the game engine works, but here's what happened:

With only a second left, the opposing team grabbed a rebound, threw a full-court pass, and was able to attempt a buzzer-beater shot. One of my players fouled the shooter. The game was tied 100–100, and the opponent made both free throws, so I ended up losing.

If this is how the game engine works, could the developers make it more realistic by accounting for the time it takes the ball to travel on a full-court pass? Also, I rarely see shot-clock violations in games. Are they currently implemented in the game, or are they just relatively uncommon?

Preview the game here:

Idk about the clock issue, the game is called Buzzerbeater, so I have noticed in my nearly 10 years of playing that there are way more Buzzerbeater shots than in RL. There are also rarely ever any shot clock vilolations, there used to be more than there are now, they are super rare, kinda like and 1's. IDK why they have never been able to fix some of the more common issues, but they just never have. Overall the game is great, but there are issues for sure, and the new company that bought BB just doesnt seem to be very proactive at all. Sadly the vast majority of players play for free and that sucks because those of us who pay carry the freight for everyone and we dont get a lot of upgrades.
