Looks like Digging is rebuilding fairly quickly - two nice young big men with high potential.

Looking a little light at guard at this point, although he re-bought his Phenomenal JS gunner.

Hmmm - when would you say is the best time to blow it up?

People, draft location, possible cash flow issues....

I'm a fan of blowing up after a Cup loss - usually the middle of the season. At that point you can evaluate whether to try that season or rebuild. Also, you can generally pick up decently trained 18/19 year olds at better prices than the rush at the start of the season. Best time to buy is after the playoff deadline, but you usually have to suck up 1-2 weeks of salary against a lack of income and that makes new additions seem more costly especially if you are no longer in the playoffs.

There has been significant deflation this season - you can get a starting quality center (>$120k salary) for under $2M. Even some older guards are on the market with wond OD/JS for $2.5M or so. I have seen Marv/Marv for about the same as well.

For me, it took a while to get back to a decent starting five. I'm still relatively worse on guards, but that should improve next season. After training for many seasons inside guys, I'm hoping that shifting to guards two seasons ago will help the team to be more competitive in a more efficient manner. Still waiting to see if that is the case. I'm curious how much Silverbacks guards will pop in salary for next season...

It is hard to really grow training big men. The exchange rate on top flight guards vs big men is rough and you are often spending more on salary because you have down low monsters on the roster eating up cash. I am considering just switching to guard training after finishing up Yusuke or an outright roster detonation and enjoy a free fall for a season or so while sucking in money and draftees.

Boom! There go the Pyros!

I'm glad he kept 3 guys so it was not a forfeit.

Of course, it doesn't help that one of the guys fouls out before half!

Looks like Digging has sold off his guards...

Myopic still looking for a new team...

Couple of nice pickups by the promotees - should be interesting...
