Is it worth training a center with atrocious outside defense or is it not really a big deal?


In general no, especially if they are tall. You want your players to be well-rounded for salary reasons, and trying to train a 7'0" guy from 1 OD is going to be painful.

No to No.

Yes, it is painful, but it is worth it, especially in you want to get away from zone defenses.

What type of seats is best to build at the beginning and why? How should the arena look, more or less, after a season or two of tanking?

You should try to max out courtside seats (at 500) and luxury boxes (at 50) relatively early, as these are not as heavily dependent on bad game results as bleachers and lower tier seats. Especially when tanking, these should be the best ones to invest in.

In a real simple way: if you go negative with your finances, you have to pay a certain percentage in tax until your finances get positive again.

Overextension tax is a "luxury tax" or "financial fair play tax" -- a 50% tax for running at a significant weekly deficit of profitability. It's based on a sliding scale of your net profitability (income minus expenses), but you receive a credit for training players (or purchasing them right before their salaries recalculate higher) within this calculation -- so if you have $500k in player salaries but the players only totaled $200k in salaries when you purchased/drafted them, you could be running at an average weekly deficit of $300k before you'd suffer overextension tax.

There's _also_ interest paid on having a negative bank balance as of two consecutive economic updates, a 5% weekly interest charge on the loan the bank is extending you to keep your team running. If you have a negative balance in excess of -$500,000 after an economic update, then you'll trigger a bankruptcy warning and have 2 weeks to get back above -$500,000 or you'll be fired (your team will reset).

If I follow correct, when I buy player at Monday morning I don't pay his salary at previous calculation but then can be subject to this tax?

No.

If you're running at a weekly profit or break/even, you don't pay over extension tax.

If you save up a bunch of money but then buy a bunch of players with very large salaries to dominate the leagues, but at a weekly net loss, you'll pay over extension tax of 50% on your average weekly deficit.

If you train up a bunch of high salary players and keep them, but are now running at a modest average weekly deficit, you won't pay overextension tax because of the training credit being larger than your weekly deficit.
