Looks like a fire has been lit in the conference of tankers.

Long grass (mower not working properly) and fish oil appear to be the sources of flammable material

Be nice guys, you've done well this whole season, don't ruin it now.

You've got way too much power.... Lol

I came too late to the party :(

We can always throw another one :)

Are you still planning on selling your players at the end of this season or are you instead buying up for your B3 title attempt?

Well their has been no interest expressed for any of my players so I might have to rethink my plans. Might see what changes are announced and how my salaries look. With the redevelopment of my stadium and the adjustment of my prices im hoping that I will be $60K a week better off financially & with Williams soon to hit the 130 TSP anything is possible. All that said Koops has already had hiz name engraved on next seasons trophies

Well done to the winner victa_xbb. We have been losing interest for a while & Allah is giving us a clear message, time to go. Never been relegated before but we deserve it as we have only been half playing this season & the last few.
Despite this we are still puzzled by the loss. Regular season we beat you with your full team at your arena by 14. We beat all of the Big 8 except Whitebeard.
Has the game engine changed recently?
Is now playing a player 48 minutes is better than playing a starter and a backup?
Obviously 5 players who are 1 $200,000 player, 1 x $60,000, 2 x $40,000 & 1 x $10,000 can beat a full $650,000 team.
Are well rounded players no longer useful?
We thought we were clever to line up our proficient game shape 500,000 DMI scoring machine against your 10k player & play patient so he will score a lot but instead he hits 40%. Nate Denton our $120,000 best player in proficient game shape 2.3 million DMI against a $40,000 player also hits 40%.
We also thought that while Look Inside draws a lot of fouls Low Post does not. Nate averages 1 foul a game but now gets 5? Every player on our team suddenly becomes a massive foul machine. Mowers get 40 free throws to our 12. 40 to 12?
Rebounding also seems a little different. Your $60,000 PF gets 17 rebounds while our $120,000 gets 6. Overall our rebounding rating is better than yours yet you get far, far, far more rebounds. Are ratings now meaningless?
We have a vastly better offensive flow but about the same assists. We have much better outside scoring, inside defence, outside defence, much better everything except 1 thing inside scoring yet still lose.
The game was close then whole way but when it hit the 4th & it was your exhausted players against our fresh & rested ones that was when you pulled away. Does stamina not matter anymore?
We got GDP right, you got GDP wrong but it didn’t matter either. Is the GDP also worthless?
1 team plays 5 players, mostly tiny salaries, beaten in every category but 1, messes up GDP & still wins. We cannot explain it.
But well done victa_xbb you will be a better ABBL team then we have been the past few seasons, it has been a fun run & we may meet again some day insh’allah.

GM-Koopa: So what are you doing?

Rest of ABBL: Oh, just bantering around.

GM-Koopa: Bantering around?

Rest of ABBL: Bantering around.

GM-Koopa: Thwarting my plans?

Rest of ABBL: Thwarting your plans?

GM-Koopa: Are you?

Rest of ABBL: No.

GM-Koopa: Good, because that would be bad.

Rest of ABBL: How bad?

GM-Koopa: I'd have to ban you.

Rest of ABBL: That's bad.

GM-Koopa: Indeed. Silly little squads you have there.

Rest of ABBL: Yes. They play basketball. And nothing else.

GM-Koopa: Well yes, that's what squads do... fools.

Rest of ABBL: So um, can we help you?

GM-Koopa: No, but maybe I can help you.

Rest of ABBL: Uh... we need a GM.

GM-Koopa: I am a GM *KNEE TO CHEST* by the way the only reason I hit you all is because you're my rivals in the ABBL. Take that.

Took me a bout a whole season to figure how to play my team and I've got lucky in the last minute.

Edit to give some clarifications...

Obviously 5 players who are 1 $200,000 player, 1 x $60,000, 2 x $40,000 & 1 x $10,000 can beat a full $650,000 team.

My players are quite rounded as well. What makes you think they aren't?
You beat me in the regular season because I didn't put in the same effort plus I was making mistakes on minutes, line up and offence. Enthusiasm wasn't quite equal as I spent it against Seagulls.

From my perspective, you got careless and played the wrong offence. You underestimated my players.
My shooting guard has phenomenal OD and prominent ID and he was defending Nate in the last game. My players game shapes were proficient while your players were on respectable. Your C can not stop my 200k PF and I think that is a given from their salary.

You chose patient against low post. Since my players are defensive and well rounded, the only three positions that you can possibly score is at C, PG and SF. I knew I had to stop two out of three of your main scorers (PG and C) and I should have a fighting chance. slow pace game works really well towards my 48 minute line up. Less stamina is spent. Though, I did spend half the season training stamina and game shape ;)

I just saw your PF and Cs' skills. They are not very rounded. Though, Yerman seems to have a higher scoring rate than Niksa may because he's more experienced or his JS is higher?

We got GDP right, you got GDP wrong but it didn’t matter either. Is the GDP also worthless?

I don't really know if GDP has any effects on the result but you can ask the 'Sid Slayer', he gets it wrong all the time.

Anyways, good luck in Div2.

Looking forward to joining here next season. Guess it's most likely on the blue side.
