I'd love to Yoda but you see, I'm too used to winning as a Kevin so I think I'll decline your offer

DId I send it to the wrong person, sorry. It does seem that somehow our division II teams and one ABBL just couldn't take down Kevin's five ABBLers. Shame on us!

Training is the key to long term success.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Who was?

It is instructive to read Rad Ranga tell the story of his team and how the "win now" advice he got from a certain well known player set him back a whole season.

Just pre-empting.

Given the market currently it can be tempting.

Haha, Just remember, Kevin have not changed members in the top tier, it's just that Slam! had made his way up to the ABBL by himself. Also when you look at us last season we had 4 Div III teams, 1 Div II and 4 ABBL when we won.

And ALSO if we go back even further, I started off as a Div IV team when I first joined Kevin. So all I have to say is... Progression > Roster changes

Progression is great, but sometimes you have to take a step back to take a step forward. But now we Calamari have four teams in II.4 RObhoe, Naker ZVirus, Xerxes and I. We have created out own horrible logjam.

On a different matter Slam ! was very lucky not to have to face the Western Titans in the finals last season as I think it would have been a great finals series having seen both rosters. The injury to Samdup was a brutal blow for the Titans and if I was a betting man I would have gone with the homecourt Titans.

I don't think a step back is ever necessary:

it's all about having the right timing. I'd be ready to lose the finals on purpose - at a given time - in order to not promote (yes!) and I can argue that.
