I have noticed on a number of occasions, most recently where I lost on a buzzerbeater https://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/137496866/reportmatch.aspx?realTime=2870, that at the end of a quarter when there is a second or two left in the quarter and one team scores, the other team regularly, without calling a timeout, manages to get a shot and even a two pointer.

I feel like this should not be the case as, while possible in real life, it is quite rare that this happens. In most cases I believe these should be replaced with half court or full court heaves in order to improve the game engine. Or even more scrambles/teams not able to get the shot off if they are trying to throw the ball full court, catch it, jump and then shoot.

There's a few half court shots in games. Your game is ,it's basically clock control match. They had it a little better.

A bit of luck too, they should've missed that shot based on % of shot quality in that area. Tough break for your team sadly.

I feel that there's not enough half court shots. In this case, I believe this should have been one. I feel it happens more regularly at the end of the quarter that in 1 second or two the team somehow ends up at the other end of the court.

I don't mind for this game of course it's more about the game engine scenario at end of quarter
