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.

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.

1: You have a good chance. Even without winning the Championship you have a high likely hood of promoting because most of the undefeated teams usually win the finals
2: See number 1
3: I think everyone else has covered that subject well enough
4: I agree with the others, A better PF would be nice.

Now to your stadium:

Along with your arena being to small, your prices are too low, because most of your current arena is always selling out (in D.V). In D.IV it is impotant to build a solid expansion of your arena and to find the right price that will give you 90-95% full on each seats.

These are my recommended changes: This can be a goal throughout a season's time depending on your funds
Bleachers: Build 1500 and set the new price to $11* (for a total of 7000 seats)
[Cost $300,000]
REASON: These are the traditional money makers. It's very important to fiddle around
with the prices till you reach the right one. I recommend $11 because your current price
of $9 has been selling out every D.V game

Lower Tier: Build 300 and keep the price your at (for a total of 1000 seats)
[Cost $210,000]
REASON: These seats are also based on winning and losing games. I recommend $35 because your current price of $35 had been selling out sometimes, but now there will be more seats to fill.

Courtside Seats: Build 80 and keep the price at $120-125* (for a total of 200 seats)
[Cost $160,000]
REASON: These seats are not so based on winning and losing games. I recommend $120-125 because you were not selling out of these seats with the price set at $130 before.

Luxury Boxes: Are good for now
REASON: These seats are also not based on winning and losing games. I
recommend what you have and just adjusting the price as neccesary.

This expansion project carries the total cost of $670,000
*These suggested prices are not necessarily the absolute best price to keep your seats at, but merely an estimate to help you know were you stand. If with these recommended seat prices you are still selling out, set them higher. If they are not selling enough, set them lower. Remember that each seating area needs to be evaluated separately when determining the seat pricing or expansion of the arena. Seat pricing subject to change during the new upcoming season based if promoted into D.IV.
