I think Team LeBron are the favourites despite not having a solid big-man with the starters. The All-Star weekend has been a snoozefest the last couple seasons so I'm really just hoping for an entertaining game and could care less who wins. Hoping Lowry or Leonard come away with the MVP.

we sure love to go in ot, ben.

Wow, you completely shut eachother out. Ben hit 80 points during the OT

Good game. I guess this is what happens when I just play my best perimeter defenders. It was definitely close, at least the extra minutes helped experience and training in a way.

I think one of the reasons you were even in the game was the perimeter defense. OD is the highest value stat in the game imo. I think the problem with your roster construction currently Ben is probably not enough OD and putting too much value into handling/driving.

I have some ideas about a good roster construction to build-around Hardy/Turbin. Let me know if you want my opinion.

Well, I guess this is what happens when I put almost my whole team on sale. Everyone in the league has a general idea of what my team consists of, especially when I can't sell them for a high price.

Yep, wanted to try something new last game with more OD. Earlier in the season, I was trying to sell most of my players for quick cash, so I'm now trying to see what I can work with at the moment. Roster construction wise, I need more 3 point shooting and OD, but I think I have enough that teams won't 2-3 every game against me.

I appreciate the thought, but I'm fine. I finally managed to cut players and salaries, so I don't think I will add any more players.

Does anybody else take screen shots whenever somebody tries to sell the farm?

I would still love to see how you've been training Hardy. At his height, hes an interesting prospect moving forward and hes got a pretty manageable salary for a guy like that.

Looks like your teams going to live and die on the development of Turbin. The guys gone up 100k in salary over the past two seasons and our league is saturated with quality, experienced bigs (toughest allstar spot to crack over the last few seasons).

Overall, your team has so much youth that it's pretty obvious you aren't planning on having them play with Turbin in the future. I'm just wondering if your planning a firesale once you feel like Hardy can take the reigns.

Never took screenshots, but I would look at the key players and know their play style.

To be honest, Hardy was a good prospect when I got him at 18. He came in with around 60 skill points with the majority of his points being centred towards outside skills. Still, Hardy was my 3rd preferred pick at that draft, I had two 5* potential guys ahead of him. My team was versatile (Having Diram helped) and sometimes I wanted to try new lineups and strategies out, so Hardy got a lot of training in a variety of positions with most of the time at the point.

You're right, but only partially. I'm going to live and die on the salary of Turbin. A few inside bumps and I would have a 200k big man next season where his weekly salary will make it nightmare to surround a team around.

Earlier in the season, I put almost everyone for sale. In the future, I'm not planning to make too many moves, maybe sell or get rid of a few reserves or backups. If I do have a firesale, it'll be because Turbin's salary forced me to or the market for sellers are high.

Weirdly enough, Hardy and Turbin are my odd players out in my training. Hardy won't receive any outside training and Turbin won't receive any inside training.
