It would also be more realistic for players to start slowly declining when they hit 28-29. How many 32/33 yr olds do you see who are still as good as when they were 27/28?

what about kevin garnett (32) and ray allen (33)? or jason kidd (35)? steve nash won his secon mvp-trophy when he was 32.

my point is:
if you want bb to be realistic, then its ok if skill-drops start around 33, because in real life players usually are best around the age of 30.
but, since this is a game and not reality, it might be a considerable idea to make declining start earlier, even if i wouldn't like it... :)

I expect the potential caps will take care of the god-like problems and the idea is probably to have players with great skills instead of crappy ones.

Kevin Garnett - His minutes per game dropped last season after being pretty consistent through his career... And his average rpg and apg have been slowly dropping the last 3 seasons

Ray Allen - His PPG dropped to 17 last season after being pretty consistent over his career at 23-25. You have an argument here.

Jason Kidd - His PPG have dropped steadily since his career high of 18.7 in 2002-2003. Still, another good argument.

I don't really know basketball that well, so you may be right.

Keving Garnett's performance this season has been consistent with his best seasons, on a per 48 minutes basis. The same is valid for Ray Allen and Paul Pierce. The drop in their production is not related to skill decline.

In real basketball, statistics are not always an accurate measure of how good someone is.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

I´m agree with "kozlodoev", we must also consider that in the case of Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen they are playing together (with Paul Pierce) in the same team.

I mean, they are 3 superstars so all their carrers they play "alone" in their teams, now they´re together and it's normal to share their minutes because they no longer have to "lead the team to shoulder" because they share their rightful roles in the game.

I think that those new changes are not really fare for a team like mine that won 2 chanmionships in 2 years and who now plays in french D.II
I've been asking for a financial aid for those who go in a higher division for two years and i've always been said that it will never happen in BB. And now it's going to happen...
My tean went from D.IV to D.II in two season and the economy as been a hard issue for a team like mine because of a really low number of supporter, which mean low attendance.
But the bigger problem is that the players are going to take 25% more. It was said few weeks ago that the salary won't go up anymore, and now thay all grow up of 25%. You can call it as you want, it is a salary update of 25%.
please, be coherent and stop changing your mind every two or three weeks, it is becomming hard to follow.
One thin g is sure, for a team like mine, those changes are a big disvantages because i don't see how i'm supposed to pay my players next year.
Please, think to it two times before killing teams like mine.

yeah mate.
I made it from IV to I in straight seasons, when I get here, and expect to finally make some money, here comes changes.
But I've been able to grow without it, so I should probably be better off than those who got used to it.
Just one thing, though: if it were a 25% raise (or 40% in my case), we would be way better off. Considering I make 280k a game, and have a payroll of 150k for players, the bite of 112k on my game income represents not a 40% raise, but a 75% one, if we were to compare it with salaries.

like in hattrick - if they have no solution for long live of great players, they putts an unrealistic barriers.. I saw many players better on 32 than on 28 (footballers), it depends on their's style, how technical they are or how they are getting xp from a games, how intelligent they are

I've seen plenty of 32-year-old Hattrick players that are better than many 28-year-olds, so this argument doesn't exactly hold water.

maybe, but if 32-year old player get injured you can forget him
