Ohhh Sid, your attempted mind games will never cease to amaze me.

I still havent recovered from the trauma you inflicted on myself

Is anyone drafting this season?

Adam? any good picks going so far?

Sid you are selling three scrubby benchwarmers. Important for a third game in a week when you have three but useless for real games.

Thankyou very much 455K in sales for the 3 and near on 45K a week less in salaries.

After Mlynek sells tomorrow I will have an all Aussie roster

Edit - Really stuffed up with the sale of Mlynek which I reckon cost me about 150K.

I should of timed his sale to finish before the Northern Hemisphere Saturday night games and not after them.

Nice however to be making a good weekly profit again

Doubtful if my SF trainees will be developed enough by finals time to compete but regardless I will continue focusing primarily on training as I have done all season

Extremely positive cash flow


What to do with the cash?


Should I or should I not?

and if I do when?

and if I do, do I really need the home court advantage?

so is anyone actually drafting this year?

Anyone?!?!?!

i know some of you are spending poitns but is anyone actually going to waste them knowing that adam's Guns have the number 1 pick down pat?

There are rumours flying around that many leagues have 18 yos with 5/5 ratings. But to answer your question i will not spend one scouting point

Everyone knows that Vis has a 5/5 A+ 18 year old locked up in his draft but in the top leagues there have been a lot of bad drafts recently. Look at II.3 last season.

II.3 Draft

With the first pick Mad Rangas select Clive Schneider a $2k MVP who sold for $270,000. Almost certainly less than they spent on scouting.
With the second pick Wagadugu Hippopotamuses select Jared Gasnier another $2k MVP who sold for under $200,000.
With the third pick CROCKERS picked blind and got a role player.
With the fourth pick Mayhem select Nigel Mischler a $3k perennial allstar who sold for $5,000.

Of those forst four picks the team that got the best deal was CROCKERS who got the worthless players for nothing, the others probably made a massive loss.

ABBL draft

With the first pick Lewisham Wombats select Lote Fulci an almost $4k superstar who they sold for $28,000.
With the second pick adams guns select Byron Durakovic a $3k perennial allstar.
With the third pick West Island Tigers select Martyn Hafoka a $2k perennial allstar.

Loss, loss, loss. The draft is close to worthless now unless you have the one of the top picks and even then it is a lottery with a 90% chance that you get players you could have picked up from the TL for peanuts.

The second round draft picks are the gems :P
Vladimir Radak (27605651)was pick 30 in the season 21 draft by Koopasaurus.
Just sucks that I have to toggle between trying to win some games in the ABBL and getting proper training for Radak.

I can beat that, he doesn't compare with your guy but here is my home grown trainee.

Armand Fyfe (27605614)Owner: Chelsea Seagulls
Weekly salary: $ 5 225
Age: 19
Height: 6'4" / 193 cm
Potential: allstar

Armand Fyfe was pick 45 in the season 21 draft by Chelsea Seagulls.

The potential is a problem but he already has eight skills at respectable or more and only Shot Blocking is less thn mediocre. It will be funny to have a #45 draft pick one day playing meaningful minutes (as a backup) in the ABBL if I stick with him.

He is no nathan fyfe but good pick up nonetheless. Does those eight skills include stamina and free throw?

Seeing as he is a young trainee I guess there is no point keeping him secret.

Armand Fyfe (27605614)
Point Guard
Weekly salary: $ 5 225
Age: 19
Height: 6'4" / 193 cm
Potential: allstar
Jump Shot: strong Jump Range: strong
Outside Def.: respectable Handling: proficient
Driving: strong Passing: strong
Inside Shot: respectable Inside Def.: mediocre
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: atrocious
Stamina: average Free Throw: respectable

Maybe he doesn't seem that amazing but he has never been a high priority in my training compared to Barton, Kumar and Dexter but he has had 13 pops since being drafted (shows how bad he was and why he was pick #45).
