I don't understand why my offensive flow is low, my starting and backup pg as well as my sg have proficient passing. I am still training it, but mainly based on my rookie prospect.

Thanks for all the help guys! Sorry it caused such a debate.


Maybe your big men have holes there? That's the only thing I can think of. Either that or possibly tactics influence - I don't believe tactics really modify flow, though, and if I had a little more time I'd do some searching in the rules/FAQs to confirm that.

The SF contributes to the OF too and yours has yet to make a single assist in his BB career :)

Tactics definitely influence flow, and as Manouche said, if your SF has atrocious passing, which it appears to, that'll effect it heavily. In fact, in some offenses, the SF is the second most important person in terms of contributing to offensive flow.

Yeah, I really need to invest some money in a decent small forward, but I don't have the Money to do so.

Oops, did I shoot early again?

Thats the case in most places but we're talking about D5 teams here. Having them promote and play against managed teams in D4 is far better than spending extra seasons in D5 against bots.

Thing is though, I would put money that I could easily win 50-75% of DV leagues. I just got put into a rough league :-/

I got my league easily won and I got just under 3 million in the bank.

Exactly... you are in a bot league. I didn't get that luxury.

That is true and I whole heartedly agree with you regarding the higher up leagues. But with bot teams, its a different story. Managers too often grow disinterested with the game if they are playing bot teams the whole season. If they lose interest, they will just quit and BB loses more users. It is far better to bring them up to a level where they can play against better competition. Besides, if the manager is smart, they would be able to save and use their funds to be able to compete at a decent level in their new division.
