I see that, pretty impressive. Why in the world is Lupica starting ahead of Frenkel, though?

i put Frankel as starter and then Lupica. I rotate the starting positions since they are both good. i might sell Frankel cause even though he has amazing defense, he does not have very good offense. Lupica has both of that

I think it would be a good idea to sell Frankel if Lupica is arguably better. 22k is a decent salary to be paying a marginal starter when you have an 8k PG running the offense.

You could upgrade the PG and add a backup SG with 22k worth of salary as long as Frankel sells for a decent amount. Of course, you would lose the tactical advantage of having a shutdown defense wing player.

Maybe I've just never noticed this before (don't think so), or maybe it's something new (don't think so), but this week Clyde Baum and Robby Taylor have U21 team advertisements on their player page. As to why they just appeared now I am not sure. Taylor popped this week but Baum didn't.

Neither is good enough to play on the team, obviously, but still kinda neat. If both were a year younger, I would be confident that they could be on the U21 next year (except for Taylor's Star Potential). They are well rounded basketball machines, as evidenced by the fact that they have been starting at PG/SG all season and I'm 11-4.

I think that was a pretty accurate assessment. I had just broken up my front court and signed 19 year old Baum and Taylor and figured I would contend for promotion once they hit 21.

Sonics and the Unicorns are tough, but I think I have a puncher's chance ESPECIALLY if I can secure home court. With Slatington in somewhat of a transition mode, you would be the only team keeping me from promoting if I snuck out of the Big 8. I think I can take you best of 3 barring a late addition to your squad.

If not this year, then next year is looking good. Taylor/Shepherd/Baum is a pretty versatile front court right now. Next season Baum will be done with training and able to man the Center position full time. My advantage is that even though I keep the same players, they get slightly better each week. It is just a waiting game because I am making money hand over fist and slowly improving.
