I now understand, and agree with your reasoning for a bad rating. I don't know if we can blame uflorin completely for it though. He has tried to contact GMs and it can be a frustrating job.


Now it's my turn not to understand. What's this all about??

I assume by GMs he means users and not Game Masters.

I'm one of those people who would love to train a potential Canadian U21 player. I would sell off any non-Canadians to raise the cash to buy them and dedicate my training and long term plans strictly to them.

I went back and looked through drafts from season 3. It is frustrating to see how many high level players who were not trained.

If I am to talk about luck... I think we were more unlucky than lucky. We actually lost games that we could have won, one of them even in overtime after leading by a large margin.

GM-JuicePats is right. I have a bad habit of calling users GMs. Since they are technically GMs of their teams, but in this game they'd be better called users. Now we're even. Haha.

Regards to the low rating of the inside offense, I guess it may somehow relate to the sf you pick. I think the start sf should be more likely have strong guard skills but weaker forward skills... so if you try to play look inside, he may not contribute a lot.
My suggestion is that you can put a player with strong inside skills and decent guard skills(like my player Marc) to play sf when you want to try look inside... after all, Scott's salary is high but he seems can only play defense? I dont think so.

Maybe I'm wrong, but if you never tried it, why not? If you have tried, just ignore what I say....

- Roster management. We didn't cut the roster down to 12 at the enthusiasm reset, which is 100% indefensible. We've been carrying the same 14 players for as long as I can remember... possibly as early as week 1 of uflorin's term.


We started with 12 players, added another one based on injuries, then another one, sometime close to mid last season and stayed with the 14 players roster until now.

It was a choice I made and I see no issue with it.

Firing 2 players for the sake of firing is not an advantage, but, in this case, a dissadvantage for the team. There is still space for extra additions and, besides, I don't know of any great players that would be good assets to the team. The dissadvantage would be that the dropped players will probably not be available at the time I need them since they would be picked up by the U21 probably if under 21 (an one of the possible dropped ones would be).

Team kept flexibility with the still remaining open spots.

Of course, the explanation you gave means that's how you would have done it, but I don't think that's the best way... Stating it's 100% indefensible is rather curious. You have your opinion, I have mine. If season would end now and would have to deal with yet another season I would still keep the current 14 players roster, I don't have any problem with that in the current Canadian environment.

Marc Hederman is in no way or form a small forward and should not even be considered for that spot.


And Aubert and Caron?
