I Swear I Can Play… Until It Actually Counts

Played in my league last night and just couldn’t sink the easy shots. Only 2nd season with the league and they somehow decided to rate me a 4 from the start (TAPS), and maybe that’s fair when I’m playing well, but my inconsistency is unreal. More often than not, I’m consistently missing vs playing to a “4” ability.

Does anyone else feel like once the game starts, they turn into a fraction of the player they know they can be? Any advice on handling that? And can I ever go down in rank?
