From what I know chemistry is not a thing. My point was more seeing how they all perform together, as I’ve had a team (couple season ago) who looked dominant on paper but just wasn’t a fit for BB offenses. I imagine FTs and Injuries will have a large impact as well

I’m asking a lot out of my star guard, that’s for sure. He’s basically never stepped up but I’ve never been able to let go. He’s like my baby since I’ve trained him for so long haha

its hard to let go of the ones you train. but then you see all that cash you can get and youre like bye bye bye!

this is my last run at promotion, if i dont get it this season im dumping all old players and stockpiling cash for a season and dropping down and coming back up after a season or two with a loaded young roster.

I feel like HCA has been buffed in recent seasons. All home teams winning doesn't shock me, but I feel like in past seasons I've played the away team had a much better chance.

What do you think is worth more: HCA or an enthusiasm advantage?

I've always felt that two teams playing an equal effort of ENT (TIE, Normal, CT) with slightly higher/lower enthusiasm did not provide a crazy boost. Only when CTing or in playoffs I find it really useful. I feel that HCA has become really important, but that could be just me

We let a big opportunity slip away in game 1. Scoring 38 first quarter points. But give our opponent credit, they deserved the win. Were look to bounce back at home against PV.
