Basically what everybody else said, and even with a good team it takes 3-4 S to get through IV.10

Don't buy 270k centers anymore and you will have easier time playing the game.

There's no salary floor in D4 (iirc), and even with the relegation penalty he'll have no problem making money in D5 with a big arena, since he'll be winning all his games.

What is "cowardly" about this exactly? Why play the game if you have to spend precious time and money just to slightly advance on the treadmill of mediocrity that is the USA leagues, only to be stopped by the old money in the pros once you get there? If he's not saving money now and building for the future, don't delude him into having any sort of ambition. Tanking and training is the financially prudent move.

There is a floor in IV, though it's hardly noticeable (80% of TV contract).

I wouldn't call it "cowardly" exactly myself, but on the other hand I think it's definitely a much more interesting challenge to try to compete while at the same time focusing on training and building the arena and infrastructure. If your solution to an increasing challenge is to run from it until you can stockpile enough money to overcome it, you'll never be able to compete without that financial advantage.

Yes the unfortunate thing about the Buzzer Beater help forum is that 75% of the people trying to give an answer to a legitimate question haven't had nearly enough experience to actually give a helpful answer. I used the word "Cowardly" because as you say instead of trying to fix a situation that one finds themself by simply working hard at it they run from it and hope they get lucky down the road.

Hmmmm sounds like all the pathetic people I see down at the Seven Eleven scratching lottery tickets over the trash barrel.

I've been playing since Season 12, in case that was at all directed at me.

Classy, by the way, laughing at the desperation of people trying to escape a system designed to hold them down. Granted, BB isn't nearly as important as reality (to most of us), but the USA leagues become a massive treadmill if you overspend trying to get out of mid-tier leagues, instead of accumulating a warchest to eventually compete in the pros.

Sorry, you sounded like the rest of the noobs and seeing as you didn't know that there was a salary floor, I was giving you the benefit of the doubt, but now I see I was wrong.

Get off your high horse. Last time I spent significant time in D4, the salary floor hadn't been implemented yet.

You've only been playing for four seasons. No chance in hell you make it another four in the USA league structure without changing your mind about tanking.

Well I guess this is where I say good bye. I can lead a horse to water, but I can't make him drink.

Good luck tanking!

Well depending on how stubborn the horse is, you might not even be able to lead him. lol
