He probably would have ruined my run of 4 straight gold medals with the U21 NT. That man is a cancer in the locker room.

It definitely sucks because we have been so spoiled with two of the better SFs in the world. We have a few guys that could still play the traditional SF role over the next few years but if they aren't in good GS then we really will need to look at alternatives. One thing I've been a fan of is OD at the NT. An alternative could be to stack the guards and try to force more turnovers while having a slight mismatch on the outside. Obviously, this would leave us at a disadvantage on the inside but it may be worth the risk.
In terms of long term goals, I think by building up our team NT help, between Dwight Coward, yourself, JK, and all of the others will help in the scouting department. It comes down to us being proactive in helping owners oiut in training great players that will benefit their own teams and the NT.
The thing that everyone doesn't understand is we had a period of 10 seasons with very little help at the NT level. Everyone loves the U21 but forgets about the NT. The lack of help the past 10 seasons coincides with the lack of real depth as well. It's a large task for the NT manager because there are so many players to scout and emails to send to managers so the more help we have the better future we will have for the NT.

What would you say to convince someone to vote for you when you know, deep in your heart, that you found a steal with the 48th pick of a draft, and then let him go and had him come back to punish you in this game:
(62540880)
and now he's back on your team he can't even get 48 minutes in a season? Why are you so bad at this?

I had to let him go because he was a selfish mofo. Where do players come off thinking they deserve all of this dang money?? I had to let him go so he could really see what he was missing on the smallfries. He came crawling back begging me to pay your team an ungodly amount of money even though you didn't even train him. Yi is a selfish and screwed up mofo. He really doesn't deserve to be on me team but I figured I would make him suffer and deteriorate to skin and bones on my bench and be there for all of the announcers to even dunk on.

It hasn't come to my attention that you view RnG/FCP as a feasible strategy. I do not agree with this thinking so I will politely decline to vote for you. My question is:
WHY???
PS: Jkalltheway/Jokerz is not allowed to answer this. He is biased and spews fake news because he is *not* a reporter as well as a double agent spy who smells like fish. All reporters do this.
PPS: Are you 100% certain you will win worlds gold? Like is this a guarantee?
*I am required to say this regardless of whether or not it's true

Lol this is pretty comical. Do I think it's feasible competitively? Absolutely not. Do I think we can run it against weak teams in Americas for fun? Absolutely.
I think one thing you really need to look at while voting is my track record with strategies at the NT level. Have I ever steered the team wrongly? Absolutely not. However, as you are playing weaker teams that is the time to experiment tactically just to see what you can possibly do. I don't have any doubt in my mind that we wouldn't beat the weaker teams while running it. If anything, it'll be fun for everyone to watch.
And Worlds gold? Nobody can promise it with where we are at with our depth and where China has been. However, I think I give us the best opportunity to have a shot at it.
