Well, it appears its an ask and you shall receive type thing here on BB.

Went back to watch the game and the team fired off 3, 3 pointers. Only made 1 of them but it was nice to see my guys doing a little bit of what we're good at.

Closed the gap to 2 to end the quarter. I can live with the way things played out towards the end.

Judging by the news on HT, BB may be taking a back burner.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

I'm still here. Admittedly I was a little distracted the last week or so.

That being said, I don't think I'm a savvy enough scouter to have done anything differently.

I'm not upset about not promoting. This gives me another season to get my team in order.

In the draft, I got a role player, a bench warmer and this guy:

Leslie Toney (9208950) Center
Owner:
X-steppers

Weekly salary:
$ 2 119
DMI: 0
Age: 18
Height: 6'7" / 201 cm
Potential: superstar
Game Shape: respectable
Jump Shot: atrocious Jump Range: atrocious
Outside Def.: mediocre Handling: mediocre
Driving: awful Passing: inept
Inside Shot: pitiful Inside Def.: average
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: mediocre
Stamina: inept Free Throw: inept

Experience: atrocious


Is there any reason in the world to attempt to train this guy?

So basically my 20,000.00 a week last season netted me 3 guys I get to cut/use as friendly fodder. If I hadn't already cut my scouting spending, I'd do it right now.

So that puts me into a tough spot.

Mina, my clear cut #1 player had his salary jump to 20,000.00 a week. I guess I need to sell him and find a replacement on the TL. 22 is too old to train when your highest skill is tremendous. Right?

Weekly salary: $ 20 479
DMI: 125400
Age: 22
Height: 6'1" / 185 cm
Potential: allstar
Game Shape: respectable
Jump Shot: tremendous Jump Range: proficient
Outside Def.: prominent Handling: average
Driving: proficient Passing: prominent
Inside Shot: respectable Inside Def.: mediocre
Rebounding: inept Shot Blocking: pitiful
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: prominent

Experience: inept

Na, he's trainable, esp when he's your best player. work him in JS, OD and handling, maybe get him a couple pops in each and he's very solid.
