Birol has been easily my most important player over the past few seasons - to have a SF who can function well both offensively and defensively in an inside offense is golden. His IS kick took me from a solid inside offense to a very good one.

I always thought of him as a (slightly) inferior version of Dell'Asta - from memory their skills are veeery similar. If I had my time over again, I would love to get him some more driving though.

Sorry yoda completely forgot to reply to your bb mail a week or so ago. I think Sperbert, Birol and Jahe are triplets!!

Sad to see you lose the passion mllama but I'm glad to hear you will still be around to farm some young Aussies. Hopefully after a little while the fire will burn again!

:( who will embrace and encourage my immaturity now?

I know how you feel though, went through the same thing myself when i decided to sell up a couple of seasons ago. It was exactly what i needed though, picking up Zero and training him to the U21 team as well as having an Aussie focus ever since brought back some passion.


Hopefully it has the same effect for you!



At least we'll always have the Willy Dick memories!

Sad to see you go like that. You will be missed in the ABBL and in the aussie BB community. Just pop around a put in a random post once in a while on the forums. =P

Does this mean you are going to go 0-22 in season 22 and bank in a lot of money?

Hopefully there is going to be some Jordan's, Lebron's, Kobe's and Durant's in next seasons abbl draft.

I'll keep myself at around the salary floor. Might win the odd game (watch out for the CT peoples)

Should rake in a fair bit of dough if I regain the passion in the future though (though the level 7 trainer will cost me a bit...)

Is there any truth to the rumour that you're actually Murray Newman and the reason you're retiring from Buzzer is because you've been ordered to spend every spare second working on your fitness?

Remember if you drop from ABBL you relinquish your rights to being allowed to have a valid opinion...

Shame to hear you're losing the motivation. I think all of us 'old timers' have gone through it to varying degrees at one point or another. I'm in the same boat as C-Cat though, going Aussie and starting to focus on training the next Aussie hopefuls has rejuvenated me a little bit so hopefully it'll do the same for you.

Wil Williams dropped from 2mil to 1.1 and after all those sales of yours today, you can fight iwen for the rights to him! ;)

will williams is intriguing... he seems like he is one of the best aussie rookies to date since Jon Bogan but only $1.1mil so far.
Just a few seasons ago zazz and HA had a bidding war of over $3mil for some rookie.

Williams woulda gone for a fortune had he been sold at the beginning of last season.

Doesn't look like he's improved all that much this season though (unless he had a really low skill that the owner has been hammering), so obviously not going to sell for as much
