Yeah certainly, I kinda see a difference in people; they are either business minded or technically minded. The business people are used to make decisions with imperfect information, and to make choices between options that each have their pro's and con's. They are also used to face dilemmas. Technically minded people look for an optimum, the best possible answer. They think that if they figure out what is behind the problem, they can find the best 1 solution.
In this view, Buzzerbeater is more of a business game. Some parts might have an optimal point in a vacuum, but in the overall scheme of the game, there is no 1 best way of doing things. It can be hard for people with a different mindset to function in another situation; I had to learn it too as I have a technical background, but I'm now in a business job.
