I would probably use either this lineup or one that is very similar.

PG:Sylvain Milot
Back up PG:Stephen Pushkin
reserve PG:Michel Picard

SG:Ed Matthews
Back up SG;Jabir Issa
reserve SG:Tommy Germain

SF:Geoff Abbott
Back up SF:Paul Wendon/Essa Abu-Kaleel
reserve SF: Xavier Arel

PF:Scottie Smith
Back up PF:Téo Saint-Arnaud
reserve PF:Frank Guest

C: Peter Mahmoud
Back up C:Christopher Moran
reserve C:Daniel Spencer


What? For real? Did you accidentally mix up the starting and backup positions? Issa is miles ahead of Mathews in almost every skill, Milot is at best a role player due to his terrible shooting (and this is coming from the guy who owns him), Pushkin is not only older than Picard but also worse in almost every skill, TSA is better than Smith in every skill but three (two are tied, and the one Smith is better at is shotblocking, I think). Moran is better than Mahmoud.

How did you even come up with this list?

Haha!

One out of five is not bad. If putting the starters together the only one he has right is Abbott, pretty entertaining stuff :)

anything Questions?


Yes many, but I will start with a few.

What do you mean most teams have dominating post players? That is pretty vauge don't you think because most teams would also have dominating defensive post players...

Can you give me a typical build of one of these said 'dominating post players'? I would like to find one and buy them.

Do you really want to be the NT manager? This is a serious question as the NT manager has a ton of responsibilities that include trying to embrace the entire Canadian community. With your somewhat questionable past and lack of high end BB experience I think you may find the post completely overwelming.

How old are you? I know age does not matter in a game of this nature, but past managers have taught me that this is position is kinda like a job. A fun job, but a job none the less. Just curious if you are legal to work in Canada :P



A) what i meant by DOminating is Mono skilled players that have 150k+ salaries
B) Yes i would like to be NT manager, I understand all the Responsibilties that i have to go through
C)I am not obligated to answer this but ill say Under 20 :D

But how did you possibly arrive at this lineup? Even if you were to look purely at DMI or salary:
- Picard is way ahead of Pushkin (admittedly Milot is ahead of both, though)
- Issa is slightly higher than Mathews,
- TSA is paid 90 thousand dollars a week more than Scottie Smith
- Moran gets paid a full 100 thousand dollars a week more than Mahmoud

Now I know that salary is a very rough indicator, but I am legitimately puzzled by how you came up with this lineup. It can't be based on their average ratings in club and national team games, it isn't salary or DMI, it isn't who started and played last season, it isn't anything people following the team have said, it isn't based on the rough rankings I posted last week. Did you just sort of throw names on a list at random?

You surely cant think that was mud slinging.

If is a very serious issue that you have previously been banned and that you do not have access to the off-site forums.
Please answer how you think it would affect your term as NT manager?
