We lost against the Netherlands and somehow it felt like 1 vs 5. Säfen was the only one who could outplay them and we had again a critical shift towards our guard. During the last seasons Birgersson was like a counterweight and we had a more balanced game. This season there is no one (yet) who can take this role. And I really don't like it.
It is frustrating that one of our main bigs is set cold.
Next week we have to play against the next unbeaten team: Bosnia. Like always I will try to get the best out of our team.

I messaged Birgerssons owner with a request to buy and tried to report him to GMs but to no avail.
Such an annoyance

Did the same. I even contacted the BBs, so the topic is reported.

Loss against Bosnia, Stjärnland injured for 2 weeks and some minutes are pretty high this week... it doesn't get easier this season.

After four losses the first win! It was really important.

Yesterdays game was a real strong defense play. We had the fewest points allowed from all teams. The right GDP was a helping factor.
Fredriksson had no real motivation to play, so he left the game with 6 fouls. Gustavsson had to replace him in his first NT game. his debut was a good one with 7 pts and 5 assists.
The overall FG% of our team was a little bit to low. But still, a nice performance.

The next two games will be also "we will give it all to win" games.
An update on Birgersson: his manager was online again... after 5 weeks. I asked him again to do something and sell Birgersson. It's clear he has no value for him and he just keeps him on the roster.

Georgia wanted a rematch, so we played on in Bulgaria.
During the first half it looked like they could beat us, but during the second half our team came back and we won by a small margin. Gijon surprised me with his strong scoring. For a defense specialist he was fantastic.

Like last season, if possible and your NT players are weak in stamina or free throw, give them a little bit training.

Again a wild ride against Belgium.
Our SF was injured after 7 minutes and his back up, who was only set up as a test, had to play for the rest of the game. grml.
Nontheless, our team was strong and had a big lead during the game. Unfortunately only seconds before the end of the game, Belgium could tie it and the last shot from our side was a miss. So the dicission was postpone into the OT and Belgium could get the win by a thin margin -.-

Our biggest topic was the free throw shooting. We missed 17 shots! But I can assure you, the managers of the current NT players are training FT, so I expect better shooting in the future.

The tests for the starting line up for next season are still under way. It's now more or less clear which players will start and on which position. Yesterdays game against Switzerland showed again an impressive Säfen (6-7 3ptrs and 20 pts in Q3), but also that Sunesson, despite his low salary, has some impact as a SF.
The inside is currently dominated by three players. Behind them we have a couple of others, who will play according to the tactic.
We still miss a second guard who is on the same level as Säfen, but I hope during the next season, a second one will emerge. With that our line up should be finished and ready.

So, I'm almost through with my tactic and lin eup testing. One last test is left and I will run it next Monday. After that, hopefully we will have at least three different and effective options.

At the end of this week, I will post again the development of our players.

The test phase is over. The last game was against Canada and I tried Low Post as an offense.
We had a good FG% and the expected players scored. During the tests it was obvious, that we had some bigger defense problems. This is a topic which has to be improved. The offense was sometimes crazy or not understandable. As why Westerlund had more problems than Tjädermo, despite almost the same skills.

Yesterdays game was a great reminder that the ratings are garbage. According to the ratings, we lost with around 25 pts. But it were only 8 and because of the stop the clock.

Alot will depend on the schedule and opponents. With a good schedule, we should play a strong season. So let's hope for the best ;)
