Well i won't be doing much in the playoffs. Team was looking old and stale so decided to take a step back and regroup for next season.

So who will step in take your place?

Pancakes has the know how and resources but has not made the move yet.
Xerxes looks hungry and keen I'd say. And he has made some moves on the TL and on forums to back that up =P

Can either challenge the great whitebeard? Cos no one from the Great 8 can.

Anything can happen in this game even when you think you are going to win without sweat the game can screw you over. There are some things just out of your control. For example in our game, my PF Yunming was guarding at SF fouled out very early and came in my trainee who got destroyed by your SF and wasn't able to contribute much on offence which was one of the crucial differences in the match swinging in your favour. But you deserve the win, so not taking any credit away.

Rwar! Not going to let anyone dethrone me that easily! But I always love figuring out how to dodge all these punches from everybody. Just have to avoid that KO hit. :p

What is up with the ABBL draft? Sure Akuma will get the next Duffman worth a million but how can there not be a decent second player? Poor Windies, Slam !, Coin Collectors etc will get nothing but rubbish. I was hoping that maybe I could get someone trainable and had a mountain of scouting points. After the group demonstration I was amazed, so many players with five ball skills. Best looking draft I had ever seen. Three potential, three potential, two potential, etc what a disappointment.

Akuma has Duffman. Windies can choose a decent 19 year old or a 4/4 18 and after that there is nothing!

The law of averages. Last season's draft we got the holy grail (30030255), got to wait like another 5 seasons before we get anything good again.

I haven't looked at the draft. But then I don't pay for points so no point looking unless i want some random favorite numbers up the top.

Dude you have the second last pick..why would you waste all your points on this seasons draft?

Yeah I found the 5/5, not much else going on although I haven't interviewed the 4s yet.

Hopefully he's a HoF or above
but can't complain, even an MVP is good

Because I have had my scouting set at $20,000 a week since season 10 and haven't spent any for a while so had enough to scout every player this season and several in the future! I like drafting and was hoping with so few people spending that I may sneak a good late pick like Koop did when he got the superstar. Instead I am headed for another 5/3 star or allstar potential player.

That good late pick is not that good compared to the rookie akuma will get. (27605651). But its a steal alright, especially for a 30th pick.

$20k a week since season 10 aye? That kind of investment could've been spent on an ABBL championship campaign. =P

$20000 x 14 weeks x 12 seasons = ~$3.3mil in cold hard cash.
