Some intelligence on Mexico, this player is currently on the market (2744533)

[México]
Shooting Guard
Oliver Hite (2744533)

Weekly salary: $ 47 777

DMI: 216100
Age: 25
Height: 6'1" / 185 cm
Potential: allstar *
Game Shape: strong

Jump Shot: tremendous Jump Range: prolific
Outside Def.: sensational Handling: prolific
Driving: prominent Passing: prominent
Inside Shot: atrocious Inside Def.: pitiful
Rebounding: respectable Shot Blocking: respectable
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: strong

Their 500K center is in inept game shape

7 out of 16 players have game shape over respectable. The rest is below. Unfortunately that accounts for most of their starting lineup and reserves (given the roster of the last match) with only the centers being out of shape...

The Paul Davies show!

In the night (2 am) England played their best match so far! (7763)

A great win against a really tough team, with what is probably the best Center in the game at this moment! If you have the time watch the 4th quarter, it rocks!

Paul Davies gave us the victory with an exceptional overall performance, and a simply stunning Q4, a single man show! Forget the ratings, that was the player that made the game:

P. Davies
MIN 42
FG 15 - 26
3FG 5 - 7
FT 3 - 6
OR 3
TR 10
AST 7
PF 3
PTS 38
Rating 12.5

In Q4 he scored 3 of his 3FG to shatter the mexican resistance. I am so sorry that I'm gonna face him in my next league match :( No idea of how to stop that guy...

Hong Kong is our next opponent and it's the toughest team we've met so far. They are ranked 18th in the world, despite that they recently have had a blank period losing the last 42matches and hence endind up at the bottom of the table for the consolation tournament.

The main reason for the last few blanks is that they were in the repechage tournament and hence started penalized in terms of enthusiasm... Hopefully they haven't recovered yet, but I'm afraid they have: they played TIE the last two matches...

Among their top players, the 200K center So Sit Wai (6000537) stands out. Note that they have 3 players with salaries in excess of 100K (all inside players)

Unfortunately their GS is top notch...

This week we felt the drain of the cup on our players and our GS is not as good as it should be :(

Let's see what happens...

And despite the difference in gross salaries between the teams we won! (7820)

Another great match for England. HK surprised us with an inside focus, but our inside defense was strong nevertheless, that coupled with their weak outside attack and defense (and their enthusiasm choice!) resulted in a comfortable win...

Next is DK away, on paper a somewhat weaker opponent, but let's remember that they won against Poland when they played at home: (7666) (with a CT). If there is a match I should not underestimate, well, this is it!

We have 3 more matches to go: DK, Bosnia (unbeaten in this tournament!) and Senegal.

Luckily he's a crappy shooter, so he doesn't perform all that well.

The OD is scary though. To be honest I wouldn't play him in my team at all... I really had to be sure I was facing an outside attack for him to be of any use...

I would play him, I am not a crack with the game yet, but I dont see how big a difference a PG with good inside skills would make compared to having bad inside skills.

Sensational passing and that high handling makes for many assists and very few turnovers. I would use him, i like a player like that alot...

but that is why this game is so great compared to hattrick. there are different ways to rome in BB...
