Originally i figured he was tanking for the long haul realising he can't compete, but purchasing a guard of the same price, salary and age of the guards he just got rid of can't be rationalized.

If he is tanking its pointless to buy the player he did since he sold one very similar. If he is making a run at a championship he obviously doesn't realise how very slim his chances are considering he will have to spend a lot of enthusiasm to make up for the hca against him. Or maybe with his previous roster he genuinely believes 32 is a youth policy?

I think he sold all his players expecting more than what he got thinking with all the sides tanking he could easily finish 6th and buy up for the relegation match. When reality hit home that his players had no value and that there is not enough time to save enough to stay afloat he is now out looking to rebuild dads army to limp into 5th... That is the only theory that I could see fitting.

No, I can't see me getting HCA either JW, even then beating Smeltz will be near impossible.

I don't know what I'll do for the rest of this season, for the minute just train my 3 trainees and try stay in the cup for a bit longer!

hahah I don't think it's impossible, though I do think out of the you, me and Fishy, you have the best chance.
so you're also going for a, don't expect to promote this season but will give it your best?
you should train Sidwell more, he may be your key to stop Smeltz!!

Yeh, pretty much, keep fan survey high.

The arena is currently undergoing expansion, to add:

Bleachers: 3675
Lower Tier: 1500
Courtside Seats: 50
Luxury Boxes: 10
The expansion will be complete in approximately 30 days.


holy crap thats impressive

think u & i will still have bigger ones (not that this is a dick measuring comp) but it is a great move towards long term profit & success & sometimes u have 2 take a step back 2 move forward

i kind of tried 2 tank last season 4 a bit but losing just pisses me off 2 much but still i was able to plough a million into my arena & it is sort of finished now

im not going 2 risk my future going 4 it against smeltz but @ the end of the season if things r looking right i may make a couple of moves

also 1 team i have 2 praise is jw

he had an expensive team that was going nowhere last season but he had the guts to make the right moves to add Damir Toš & drop Liang Wai Yuen who only had sensational id (which smeltz will rape) although the prodigious is was nice & now he has replaced Ðuro Cvoro with Artemiy Dayneko & these moves have brought him much closer 2 the troopers

haha u pay too much attention to jw but you are right. Hes making some sensible moves these days.

also smeltz has weakness and his overall team rating is shocking compared to promoting team. dont over estimate his team and take him down people!!!!!!

hahaah thanks for the compliments fishy, glad to know someone other than me is monitoring my progress in BB! Yes I agree, Dayneko and Tos definitely provide me better service inside than Yuen and Cvoro ever could. Though in saying that they both didn't come in cheap, I'm still not sure whether $1.5 mill for the Russian was the wisest move...
i know what you mean about tanking, it probably is a good idea to tank the last few seasons finishing 2nd and 5th, but it just doesn't sit well with me with not really putting up a fight and trying to win.
I look forward to seeing what moves you make, you are already competing well and have the same record as me half tanking!! doesn't look good for me if you provide Xie with help.

come on man, I'm actually being taken seriously on BB for a change!! ahahah
ah yeah... well Smeltz has a perfect record right now and seems unstoppable, yeah his attendance has been down, but he has the team to beat all the teams in our division. So unless you want to come back and beat Smeltz I think he's odds on to join you in ABBL.

heh, If you guys keep Smeltz here for another season, I might come back and join you guys.

We'll see how Fishy go up against Smeltz this Saturday. It's a TV game so it should be exciting to see both team putting in best effort. Can't wait....
