Sepehr Asghari is a great player and you got him for a bargain price of a million as well. That is the current issue. Players are super cheap compared to their weekly salaries so the trick is to find guys that are cost effective not all primaries. I have been bidding on a lot of SF types this week and they do not come cheap even ones with salaries of less than half that are costing three times as much.

I wasn't comparing players, I was comparing managers.

SFs have always been high in price.

This is economical game, making wise decisions on the market is always crucial. You have to make decisions or shape your strategy according to your pocket.

12/23/2011 - hopelessly addicted has just acquired Fabián Galeano for $ 533 100.




Fabián Galeano (4579617)
Shooting Guard
Owner: hopelessly addicted
Weekly salary: $ 127 981
Age: 31
Height: 6'2" / 188 cm
Potential: hall of famer


The conclusions

1 Buying a $127,981 a week 31 year old SG is making long term plans for a sustainable future while tanking.

2 Fabián was a steal at that price and this is just a day trade.

3 He is starting to remind me of someone else.

Mate its Christmas time you should be outside playing with the family.

No big deal as only a week earlier I sold a 135 K a week 31 year old MVP for 458K

Why did you have to go scratch the surface, couldnt you just of left it that HA paid $533 K for a 31 year old

Exactly one month earlier someone paid 1.5 mill for him, so I think he was a pretty good buy at the price I paid for him, and I seriously expect to sell him for at least double or even triple, come the pointy end of the season.

Story behind the purchase.

Wife woke me up at 5.30 am as she was going to work. Laying in bed, I suddenly realised I left the office window open. Put BB on and noticed the player in question, put the minimum bid on, then thought about all the computers etc that might have been knocked off from the office and considered raising the bid a few 100K and heading off to work.

Decided against that and sat and waited 30 minutes for the auction to end

No one else bid

Conclusion, hes either no good or HA got a bargain

Got me a bit curious though, who are you slandering by suggesting I remind you of someone?

Koops it looks like your fetish for 18 year olds has come to an end

Nice profits if you could just sell one of them

A truly magnificent, brilliantly balanced, young beast

When can a loss be a herald for good things to come?

Apparently during the all star week "where amazing happens" it can.

Both the Kynlala Knights and Hopelessly Addicted lost. The Knights out tanked the Seagulls and HA lost by just 4 to Bell Park SuperCats who not only hold the top sopt in the Big 8 but look at this:

Bell Park SuperCats put more into this game than hopelessly addicted.

That is right the top team needed more effort to squeak a 4 point win against lowly HA. Ok it was at Sid's arena, maybe the Cats didn't have their perfect lineup getting killed at PG giving Adilson Buckmaster 48 minutes of training but still what a sign for Sid. Even more omonous for his rivals what was his next move?

12/26/2011 - hopelessly addicted has just acquired Bernabé Pandiani for $ 1 008 250.

Bernabé Pandiani (13285257)
Center
Owner: hopelessly addicted
Weekly salary: $ 121 266
Age: 24
Height: 7'1" / 216 cm
Potential: superstar
Game Shape: respectable

That is a great price for such a young center assuming he has good skills. So this could spell trouble for Pancakes and Hadders chasing the safety of 5th and maybe even Billy Hoyle needs to watch out. Once the cup is over for Hadders he will be firing, C-Cat is a brilliant manager and HA is the second best accountant in Aussie BB, he can make the magic numbers work and isn't afraid to take risks.

So this would be bad enough news for Datzilla and Zazz now knowing that they have to face probably a much tougher opponent in the relegation series, but there is more. Can anyone hear some rumblings in the basement? Can you smell what Iwen is cooking?

Looks like having doscovered what a total disaster the draft is Iwen has had a bit of a change of direction. Perhaps it was the shame of losing to the Seagulls and winning the first pick in what is probably the worst ABBL draft ever (I have scouted every single 18 year old and almost all 19 year olds spending several seasons of draft points and found...a disaster!) that has woken the sleeping giant.

12/25/2011 - Kynlala Knights has just acquired Andelko Kosac for $ 3 941 700.

12/25/2011 - Kynlala Knights has just acquired Vlas Golovnin for $ 800 000.

Have a quick look at his roster now. Is an 8-0 home run and the chance to avoid relegation now possible?

Wow the ABBL hasn't been this exciting all season.

WA IS A DUMP is still monstering everyone but once the cup is over we will probably see something different from Direwolf and Whitebeard. Even Monkeybiz, Trikster and Datzilla must look at the possibility of finishing in 6th and having to face a full strength Pancakes, Hadders or Addicted with some fear.

With the exceptions of WA and Seagulls at the extremes now anyone can probably beat anyone. Fun times.

calm down yoda, I think you had a little to much christmas cheer last night. Talking about Iwen going 8-0? Lets look at his starting 5 as it stands now :
PG - 66k
SG - 183k
SF - 34k
PF - 151k
C - 3k?

Certainly no longer a fully tanking roster, but certainly not an 8-0 roster ...... but lets see what he does over the next 2 weeks, certainly seems to be aiming for relegation series now. A C will probably appear this next week or next.
