I don't know Jason. Me First has only used worst two defenses in BB that I could see (2-3 and FCP). Have him play a real defense and his lackluster defensive ratings become more....luster. And Me First has something rare in D4, awesome depth.


Well, let me give you an example....(26257792) I was working with this other team for a bit helping him out until he drove me insane from his crazy illogical questions. This team (prior to me offering him any help), trained nothing but OD for 2 seasons. As a result, he has some very strong OD, but at the time of this game, he had absolutely no offensive weapons at all. To me this illustrates how a team with a great defense can slow down a team like Me First. Understand, this other team didnt just have a below average offense, he had a horrific offense! So a team with a solid defense would absolutely slow Me First down, and if that team can score too, I think it would be enough to get over the top against them.

Hmm, training OD for 2 straight seasons, that's crazy.;) -I may or may not be midway through that process.

True his defense is a little worse than some but I'm not really sure how much because he plays RNG/FCP alot and it seems that would increase his PA by quite a bit. His ratings are still decent- average for both in his last playoff game. Guess I'd have to look at more of his games against good teams to be sure though. And as to his game vs Lakey I think he takes it fairly easily.

Well, if you happen to be halfway through that process, I am guessing its going better for you, because I am sure you don't have PG's with atrocious and pitiful JS :-)

Haha, true, and I'm mostly doing it to test out a theory by the guy doing the cap testing- sorry forgot his name.:(

Not really a theory, more a funny finding that seemed too ridiculous to be true. His first batch of data seemed to indicate that OD has no affect on capping, so I've trained my Star/6th Man potential guys in only OD for like the last season and am still going.

Hey, that's my old league. I knew I recognized you from somewhere. That seems to be how it goes in that league, there's been a string of one team that was heads and shoulders better than everyone else. You have to go back to season 7 to find a season with no 20 win team (and to season 6 before you find a team from the Big 8 promoting, ouch).

Hmm, your team looks pretty solid and well rounded. I would predict 12-15 wins assuming you manage gameshape/enthusiasm decently. Unless of course you wind up in IV.10 or a couple others like it.
Overall your team kind of reminds me of Charlotte Cappers in my league albeit missing one or two pieces.

Some tips:
Try to get a new trainee or 2 in the draft/ on the market after the draft, your current guys are getting a bit old.
I would also advise picking up one more 10k+ post player to go with the guy you already have.
