Name a game with more realistic basketball action in a simulation.

Once I scored a basket that still makes me laugh.

Nothing! Tried BasketSim, Bballzone.............likeb the football one, also the ones I mentioned are nice too, BUT BuzzerBeater still stands as #1. This was the 1st manager game I went to, now I'm more active in this than all the other manager games I go to COMBINED!

It may be an awesome game, but there is no harm in wanting to make it better.

Reducing the benefit of tanking is one way to do that.

I agree with you 100%.

10000000% Tanking needs to be stopped. I like the GS idea, Deadline Idea, and awrding $$$. The Salary cap is also good. But why don't we work together to make 1 final suggestion...........that we all like.

I think the most we can do is convince BB that tanking is bad for the game. I'm sure a possible solution will be good as they know better the ins and outs of economy in BB than we do. But the hardest part is getting them to be sure that tanking has to be fixed.

Well a lot of people are complaining about it, so that's at least a little bit of evidence right there.

Personally, I occasionally look around for other games to play. If I notice or hear about another game that is better, I'll switch to it. I'd prefer not to, but if it's more realistic, more fun and makes me think more, then it's a no-brainer.

Of course, I'd do it in a heartbeat...

If it wasn't for community. As a newly appointed U21 manager of our country I have more contact with lots of people than ever, and I already had a lot of contact before. I also got to know some of them in real life, we played some basketball...you really can't replace that with a better game. So the community is what would keep me and I guess a lot of others despite a better game. But if enough people would start to migrate to that game, then I'd have to think about it.
