Balls of Steel vs. Brooklyn Nets 4 life! 87 - 110

If anyone wants a lesson in how to tank your season while not trying to, just follow my lead. I lost to a team that has lost it past league games by an average of 25 points! If I were the owner of my team I would fire the General Manager!

Step 1- sell your 35 year old small forward BEFORE buying a replacement.
Step 2- be sure and forget to put in a correct lineup for 3 league games.
Step 3- lose Cup game to inferior team
Step 4- star center gets food poisoning for 2 weeks.

More tips as I further screw up this season.

Follow my podcast wherever you listen to bad ideas.

Before Chicago JG went bot, I figured my record would end up 10-4 vs big 8 and 3-5 vs great 8 for a 13-9 final record. Now looking at a probable 15-7 final record. BTW would have probably had a 12-10 record if playing in great 8.

In a unrelated story, Lincoln Bopp hit the 60+ GSP to earn his nickname!

Great 8 is just a meat grinder over here. We are churning through money just to keep from demoting.
Not sure what my season results will be. I am hoping for slow improvement. I was really surprised to win our game. Home court was the deciding factor.....and your players played alot of minutes.

I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed seeing your win. :)

The 4M arena is a game changer. I have the largest salary by 100k and I'm still coming out even each week since I'm winning BBM and Cup. I'll shed my $80k guard after my Saturday game and will be profitable again by next reset.

I guess if you keep winning that will give you home court advantage....unless I buy up your player and win the conference...lol

I may have highest Salary in the league now.
Player Salaries: $ 336 972

I think I'm almost done with this game.... been grinding since season 12. Its just not fun losing boat loads of $$ and tanking for $$ only to keep drudging in the same D3 league. I dont want to drop to D4 to go to another D3 league, but this is getting really old. Not fun.......

Tanking while only training isn't fun.

Dropping down leagues to move up isn't fun.

The worst Draft Process in game history is not fun.

Having to lose money every week just to get out ANY level division is not fun.

Selling players that used to command top $$ for pennies on the $$ is not fun.

Buying good players that were trained well for well above their worth is not fun.

I'm sure you can all add to the list.....

Sounds like my attitude many seasons ago. I started around the same time as you but quit by season 30. So this is my second stint with BB. I've definitely been there with the burnout.

These days with all the infrastructure upgrades and secondary staff available, I think teams need to be doing a lot in order to promote. But at the end of the day it's an economic game. Pull in as much income as possible from ticket sales + arena upgrades. Plus the trainer and youth trainer, consistent game shape, and whatever else you can afford to keep your team rolling.

If you find the grind boring, you can set a goal of getting one of your trainees onto the U21/NT roster. There is an active community on the official Discord server that helps each other out with that.

It just sucks to start over from the beginning if you do decide to quit and come back. I've seen some owners sell their roster and log in once a month just to stay active until they bank $25 million to buy a spot in the NBBA.
