whats ur understanding of whom plays where during the 1-3-1? cause i noticed u played pretty small in ur starting 5. donnelly at C, with ryder and williasm at PF and sf.

my guess is
PG = the 'front' 1
PF = the 'back' 1
SG and SF playing on the wings of the '3'
C playing the middle of the 3

is that how it works in BB?


I dont know for sure but I assumed the centre would have been the back one and the PF being the centre of the 3, wingman on the sides and PG at front.

Donnelly (for a centre) has very good passing and OD, so much so that he's a PF and not a true centre.

initially i thought C at the back, but googling it, according to baskteball strategies, most of the time, the C is in the middle of the '3'

i mean u played small and donnelly is more of a PF, but either way, i think at the back or in themiddle of the 3, the OD isnt going to be tested.

Interesting

I didnt really have a lot of choice with who to play given Noah Aitkins had only respectable game shape, Ott was injured and Bliffi had only strong game shape with a low DMI

If either of the 3 factors above hadnt have happenned I might have lined up differently and used different tactics

I also moved Riviera to PG as I knew Dudehowdy would get his best defensive player to cover SG which is where he thought Riviera would be

Speaking of Riviera, when is the MVP decided?

Some teams in the ABBL were losing 2, 3 or 4 hundred K a week and theoriotically could be over a mill in debt.


While that is certanly true others of us have been making a small but regular profit and have millions in the bank.

Ahhhhhh millions in the bank, I like the sound of it. (obviously would provide a good training environment for my 3 trainees and as we all know the training of my trainees is my primary focus)

Some how i lost several million last season, trying to keep Akuma honest

Looks like Sterling Archer has made his intentions clear for next season.


Will anyone try and keep him honest?

Seeing your team has me even more motivated to try and sneak a 2nd win against Dudehowdy


Maybe you were just intending to bookmark the player and accidentally bid on him

Speaking of which I just noticed Cranshaw back on the market, him and Howarth together would make a good back court duo

Cranshaw is ok, really only better than M. Edwards in OD really, I like my starting 5 for now.

Edwards, Howorth, Aslam/Fernando, Smeltz, Lin

If I can replace Lin with an aussie some time this season I will certainly do so.
I'm hoping to be hard to beat in season 25. I don't think I can best everyone with my bench still lacking some skills.
I have the money to fix it, but will see how I'm doing for a few weeks first.


Getting Howorth at this time of the season is really good, because his GS is totally shot, but matters not as it will reset in a week. :)


No offence Sid, but I kind of hope you're still around next season.
because for 1 it means there's no ABBL relegate on this side, and also coz you're a good competitor who's primary focus is always the training of his trainees. :)

And also because im broke and wouldnt be able to buy up to beat you.

Ryder Palmeri and Williams will probably go up about 30 to 40K between them in salaries for next season, but would be capable of pulling 14s/15s by the end of next season at SF

Bliffi (69K per week) would be sold or sacked and Id be forced to thinking about letting Aitkins go as hed be 33 yo and starting to lose his skills. (that said he'd be hard to replace in output for weekly salary).

Incredibly most weeks this season Ive made a small profit which has covered my weekly interest bills, meaning that id start next season in almost the same financial shape as I did this season

If I kept Aitkins, Id have about 29K per week to pay for a 3rd tall and by end of season my line up would be significantly stronger than what it is now.

Like v Tantrums at the moment, my starting 5 wouldnt be as good as yours, but Id have 4 very capable players coming off the bench.

Smeltz isnt getting any younger
