Well my guards each have tremendous HN/DV and Billingsley (6 TOs) has sensational passing and no one on my team averaged more than 2 TO's a game, so I'm not worried about that. I have no idea where 19 turnovers came from. And most of the fouls came at the end in desperation, I can't blame that on the loss. Whatever I'm done fuming about this, time to blow up the team and start over.

Yeah I mean SB's team is good, I don't mean to disrespect him or his team, I just thought the level and depth of my team's talent was quite superior. I put the game ratings into the NT database matchup simulator and I had a 93% win percentage haha. Stuff happens, I understand that. I guess I just don't understand offensive flow, because if it's passing-based, my team has plenty of that.

I do think the flow accounts for the amount of shots your guards took, the turnovers, and your big men’s shot selection, but there was definitely luck involved. My guards, in less that stellar form, shot over 40% from beyond the arc against that prominent 3-2 and Billingsley in proficient form, which wouldn’t happen if we played the same game twice. But, even with a 93% win chance, I’m still going to win 7 times out of 100.

Yup, I give you at least a 93% chance of winning the next game!

I agree, blow up the team!

Get rid of that slacker Billingsley first - what a head case! Don't forget, he lost that Cup game for you!
I see Seedi is hitting the road, so a positive move on cleaning house.

Ha, I'm really torn what to do with my guards. I drafted Billingsley, trained him, and got him on the U21 and NT squads. I dunno if I can throw away 8 seasons of history. Not to mention he does wonders for my merchandise sales (last update was $100k!). I know his transfer window is shrinking though, he's gonna be 27, so it'd be nice to get $4-5 million out of him, but I could certainly use him for next season.

Saeedi's out, the scoring was nice but Yaser is younger and more well-rounded with a likely equal salary. And obviously I'm done with big men for a while!

For selfish reasons, get rid of Billingsley. Seriously, I was thinking about Moore and Colburn (who's nearly identical to Billingsly and will be in price next year) but I can't get rid of my guys that I drafted and trained. They are the backbone of my team. I can get big guys anytime. They are a dime a dozen. Their salaries are out of whack, though.

I also find it interesting how, all of a sudden this year, you can play 20-30k guys against 70-90k guys and compete. Weird change.
