I almost never say anything about K-Mat, and I'm not singing his praises here... but tonight was his best game ever in the NT.
Thanks coach!

So the big question is was our enthusiasm reset? I guess we will know when we play Venezuela by the score.

Well done Malice, you have trained very well.

Thank you, but still a very long way to go.

This thread is very boring, I liked it more when Wolph, BBKIng & I were fighting. Seems like such a long time to wait for the Venezuela match to find out if the enthusiasm reset & BBKing is a genius or if it didn't & he is an idiot.

Center Satashi Hayakawa (12180073) is for sale so I can see how good he is compared to a certain other player & it confirms my suspicion. A pity, I had thought we were moving forward.

Gah. I had what I thought was a winning bid on Hayakawa. He would have been an excellent back-up.

You can never be sure because Nippon players just seem to always go for more than they are worth.

12/28/2012 - Kyoto Shogun has just acquired Eita Wakatsuki for $ 2 606 500.


I really took one for the team tonight. I was interested but not near that much. However this team from Sweden that has a pattern of buying young elite players for $2 million & selling them a couple of seasons later for $1 million (having not trained them) was winning the bid & I just couldn't let them win so we got into a stupid bid war. This was not in my plan. I was happy with my 3 trainees. Now I have 4 & have to make some big changes. Sorry but I couldn't let another NT prospect be wrecked (unless I end up wrecking him).

Nippon vs. Venezuela 82 - 117 (22539)


A bad loss but they put more effort in & do have some good players. Were we playing with enthusiasm 5 or 3, hard to tell. The silence from BBking is deafining. What is our team going to do when Furusawa turns 33 in 2 seasons, right now we are alomst a 1 man team.

Wow... kudos to you for doing that LT. Definitely paid more for him than he's worth.

Given some of the big men coming through, I hazard a guess that in 2-3 seasons, we'll be in a better position than we are now. At least... bigs-wise.

And on the manager. Calm down dude, it's Christmas/New Year. Not every nation is as laid-back about this time of year as Japan is.

I will try and find someone to buy Nishimura. He should be the odd man out...I really think with some TLC, Wakatsuki could be good. He has the high secondaries for some elastic effect for some OD work...look at Asano..tremendous Driving and Handles and 15 ID and his OD popped again today...(And Asano is 25)
Wolph taught me about the elastic effect...gotta give props...he changed a myth into reality.
BTW..Furusawa's days are numbers...You have my two bigs, Malice's K-Mart and Swoosh's Yasujiro and Takayama(in the bin..low passing and OD)....I think Japan will be good in the BIG department for years to come.
