Intersting? no... stupid poo brain dumboness? yes

im not even going to try and begin to understand how Gilewski has such a low salary. thats just bomb-ness - not really sure what u are trying to get out of him, but a SG who shoots 44% is actually pretty good.

Vaiz is shooting 39% this season as a point of interest. Vaiz only has Tremendous OD.

the whole game was odd, Groppo was 4 from 6 at one stage, then proceeded to miss his next 8 shots. Demaqi was 2-15 yet still kept fkn shooting the ball! like seriously wtf?!?!



i think the fact tha ti played low post may have contributed to more 'open' shots for viaz, whereas RnG tends to be more low-% shots, so yer i think that contributed more.

Viaz guarded Gilewski, but I also totally stuffed my lineup tonight and Demaqi at reserve and backup for SF and SG. so Demaqi may have spent some time guarding Gilewski. BUt i was watching the game thinking 'why is nobody gtting subbed?'.. haha.. silly me. yer that was a bit of a fk up. i should have probably won that game. No i definately should have won that game.

back to the drawing board for me.

Yeah, agree, you should have won that game. As for Gilewski shooting at 44%...

...and your boy, Raiz has 13OD v my boy's 20JS and 18OD and still lost the battle (kind of)...

...not good enough! lol

I guess I compare every guard I get to the ones I trained and Hot Rod (Marcelo Rodriguez) whose salary is less than $70k would have taken Ruiz to town from outside on a Run and Gun tactic and defended him better than Gilewski. Mind you, I made Hot Rod into the perfect outside shooter. I guess I'm just not satisfied with Gilewski's performances when asked to shoot from outside. I get the results given the LI games but I'm just not happy with him. My PG is a much better player...better skill distribution...has secondaries...with only a slightly higher salary...

...and he's Aussie so I'll keep him while I go in to semi-tank mode...

I just realised why we are rivals, we spent half a season in the same league together back in s22. Our previous meeting went like this (52860213).

Just something of note that I've noticed past 2 seasons is that age seems to be affecting salaries to. Just take a note of you're players wages at seasons end if they didn't suffer a decrease anywhere. I believe at around age 26-27 it starts to get noticable more. Actually had one player get 2 pops(admit one was FT) and his wage dropped by 2.3k. And as for comparisons, my starting PG has nearly 20k more wages than my starting SG yet only beats him in one ability and by one point at that. The SG however has much better stats overall, in fact 6 more points than the PG(I know certain skills are valued more in certain positions etc but it's not really the case in this situation). Been trying to figure many things out on this game but yeah lol, always end up confused with some of the formula's and how inconsistant they can be.

I am fairly sure age has no effect but as each season starts the salary of your player will change for two reasons.

1) Most seasons they change the salary formula, it was noticable this season as my guys with good JR dropped a lot in salary.

2) Players get training even if you didn't train them. What? Yes. Everytime you train stamina, free throws or game shape 10% of the effort goes to a random stat instead. Now this can be trivial with old and or capped players but say you spent several weeks on those team trainings and had guys still in their mid twenties it would be no surprise to see sublevels go up and maybe even pops.

Also the global economic update they do each season based on how much training is going on per team. It used to trend upwards, the past few seasons it has trended down.

Ahhhhh damn, I was too busy checking out my reflection to notice I hadn't set my line up for the Cup game.
Now my minutes are destroyed along with GameShape no doubt, and I wasted a Norm :(

Good to know, so maybe you'll have to tank your next cup game to conserve your minutes huh? ;)

im actually finding this season quite fascinating, (If not terribly frustrating for myself).

ON this side of the league, we have one full Tanker (Vipers), Mighty Oaks have 'given up', Slam ! are just cruising, and NSW havent logged on and are about to go bot.

personally, I have lost 4 games i think for less than 10 points, and a few cruel blows here n there means im probably not in the running, which leaves Fashion and Ants to take out the conference.

On the other side, 1 game seperates 2nd through to 8th. No one is obviously tanking, and you would be hard pressed to find a clear team who is going to finish top of the ladder, even though tannum are top by 2 games, tonights 2 point loss to near bot NSW certainly throws a spanner out there. Everyone on that side of the league has a positive point differential as well. which is interesting.

who is making lots of money?

Well believe it or not but I am actually making a slight profit whilst I stay in the Cup. :)
This could all change this week as I'm facing Direwolf and his Black Label Society.
But I wont be making much of a loss once it's all done either. :)

Unless someone makes a move I think I'll comfortably make the final series against which ever of the red side.
I feel like someone over there will make a big move late in the season as even the top teams have pretty manageable roster salaries at the moment.
