I would say a strong bench takes on a more important role for teams whose starters have low stamina as they can not be as effective for long periods of playing time on the court.

I play in division 4 =/ I know.. but.. I sold my whole bench or just everyone that is good and my team fell hard. I don't suggest it, but if you need money ... do it.

I'm in division II and a huge part of me being a regular top 4 team is because of my bench. My SG has a habit of picking up 2 early fouls quite often, so his backup usually can see around 15-20 mins per game. Lately my PF has been doing the same..... and of course the injury bug can call on these guys too. I usually have an 8 man rotation, so i have a big guy who can spell both the PF and C, a guy who fills in at PG and SG and a backup SF.

It´s pretty important, period. If your bench could outplay opponents, you´ll get about 10-12 minutes per game with advantadge


Also, in season 10 I had a backup selected to the all-star game, so the bench can have major impact.
