Yes, sometimes got to let the game balance itself out slowly since we can really only train 3-6 players whereas other similar sports management games you can train a whole squad of 15-40 players where 1 fired player would have less impact.

Hey lordy if you could create something like this but have it easily managed on an online interface then I would pay a yearly subscription for it.

All you would have to do is update the database yearly according to new player contracts and salaries, NBA salary caps and new rookies.

I remember reading that and thinking how great it would be. I have never really thought about doing it myself though, just because Yahoo and ESPN have their own (huge) sites. I'll have a think about it and see how much work it is, thanks for the idea.

You might run into some copyright issues with the NBA.

And getting daily data for real life games and putting into your interface daily might be a challenge. So you are right about needed huge resources like Yahoo or ESPN to pull this off.

But if its similar and its doable then it could be a hit.

A mobile app would bring more interest to me, the web page is clunky at best on a phone. Reckon they could get a whole bunch of new people on board.

The other small change that I would look at would be a dynamic page, BB is lost in the past only using a tiny percentage of the page..

now it means you have set a lineup, originally it was buggy and meant you had not set a lineup

Lucky for me. You would've hammered me if you did.
