Good luck up there! I've made it to ii.3 twice in my franchise history. Both one-and-dones. So I 've been doing my homework on this roster build for my next attempt, getting clues from the strategies of other successful owners.

One goal is to have 10mil banked when I move up so I can go get a couple of those high priced studs. Hopefully 7 mil is enough since that's where I've been stuck the past several weeks.

Man that's what scares me, I think I definitely need a bigger bank to survive a promotion...I had a pretty good amount saved up but after reading through the forum discussions decided to invest in the biggest arena upgrade. Seems like it'll definitely be worth it in the long run, and the immediate budget boost is really nice. But it definitely set back my savings 😂

I tried out FCP against bench mob after seeing you guys discuss it in here...definitely forced turnovers but it looked like my team got absolutely gassed by halftime, 13 pt halftime lead turned into a 9 pt loss lol

I dropped down to a iv. league for the past couple of seasons to train up rookies and sell them, raise some funds. I had done most of the arena upgrades a few seasons before that, and it took a minute to recoup that, but I think it is paying dividends in the long run.

I haven't tried full court press in awhile. I recall the same thing, my players getting gassed.

I felt like i just sat under the learning tree. Some good nuggets of info there from Belvedere. I also realize I too need to upgrade my arena. I run a relatively lean salary team (I think I outperform here) but by contrast, my income isn’t great either & I haven’t done any arena upgrades besides seating. $7-10M?! hahaha i guess i’ll chill in D3 for a while.

And yeah, Urban Flow’s turnovers this season are wild! The number of games with over 18 TO’s against good teams… mind blowing. A few seasons ago i was able to sneak a victory over a much better team using FCP, but I mostly don’t touch it and otherwise haven’t had success. But I truly believe the game engine gave it some extra juice this season. It’s literally all Urban Flow runs so i’d love to hear from him.

I don't want to give away too much since FCP is all I run, but I think my roster changes have had a big impact. We've always averaged 13+ steals a game. Maybe it just stands out more, because of the current standings.

I started in Season 6. Nearly two decades ago in real time.

A quick look at our rival history, we've met 6 times in 4 seasons over more than a decade, and have each won 3 times as we approach our next matchup in a couple of weeks. -oo-
