Oy vey - it's going to be a long season. Starting on a new batch of trainees, I had hoped that my previous trainees would be enough to keep me afloat. Not looking good. We'll see how the rest of the season goes, but I'm not hopeful.

You're making my preseason predictions look pretty foolish. Those 4 pops on 1 player in a single week has to somewhat make up for it, though.

haha well, I'm sorry I'm not living up to the hype lol

I only have a couple more weeks of 1v1 to completely cap the 3 previous trainees, then I can utilize them as players, not trainees and should be able to leverage their skills better without worrying about their training minutes.

Monk’s a really good talent. Interesting to see how much he’ll sell for, if he’ll sell. I assume he will. What’s the plan after he sells?

It's gotta be sad to see Monk go after 2 years of training....

Yeah, but that was always the plan. I need to sell at least one of my trainees to buy better bigs to allow my next batch of trainees to develop. Rinse, repeat.

I am hemorrhaging money right now and am at -$154k losing $60k/week. Monk was my biggest salary and the silver bullet to fix my economy and get my funds healthy again. If he sells, then I have the cash to buy a solid big, sell off my current backup bigs and use my starting big as a backup, which will improve my team, and I still have the other two guard trainees to utilize who are _almost_ as good as Monk. in ~3 weeks when the older trainees are capped, I'll be able to use them as players and not trainees and be able to fulfill my expectations coming into the season

Good luck with the season, everybody!! I've been lurking and reading the posts, really loving the activity in our league. Let's get those Ws

You can get all the "Ws" you want, but this game is going to us tonight lol. We are a desperate team.
Goodluck!

Not tonight buddy! Granted, we almost threw away the lead...

Sold for $2.8m. It was more than I expected, but I'll happily take it. Now to find a serviceable big man.
