OK.....So we had a scrimmage and the Kazaks didn't want me to see their best, so he ran Patient and 1-3-1 zone...but the Nippon U-21 is good.
First....we call this the beast ball.....Nakata again...21pts and 18 rebounds and 4 assist for good measure...and he is only 20...WOW!
second....we call this one...Bench Beast...as in..I'll come off the bench but when I get into the game, I beast....
Nishimura...13 pts and 13 rebounds in 18 minutes...WHAT?? That is crazy
Kumatani...10 pts and 6 rebounds in 11 minutes....yeah...that is beasting!!!

And the GAME BALL goes to Isehara's boy..He was all over the place..13 pts 6 rebounds 7 assist and 2 blocks...NICE!!

Two big WORRIES!!
My two PG's dissappeared and as a team, we only hit 10-22 FTs....
Two big NO PROBLEMs..
A team ran PATIENT and were only 4-36 from 3pt land....Thanks to all the trainers for getting that OD squared away.
Second...2 of the 3 double digit rebounders popped in Rebounding last week...Thanks again to the trainers

and I will finish on this note...
GAMESHAPE is huge....please try and maintain an 8-9 all season managers....Next week's game will be for real.

Well, I can tell you this...It is much easier than last time when I was U-21 manager. Last time was like pulling teeth on a Lion. This time is no joke. I even had Hijiki(Isehara Pistons) send me a "I'm sorry my guy didn't pop last week" BB Mail..crazy how nice some of these trainers are.
BTW.(abd off subject).Watch out for Hijiki..just like in Hattrick...silent but deadly. Even know I want to start 4-0...I will be running Motoori 48 tonight...let's see if the big fellow is up for it..
Tonights prediction
Isehara 84
Kitakyushu 81

I agree with Wolph great managing the team. He is also correct 1-3-1 really kills outside shooting.

I would disagree that the PGs disapperaed. They shot badly but had 9 AST and 0 TO, the had rebounds, steals & kept their opponents to a similar scoring performance, despite them being in motion & our guards in LI.

Great work by both Murata & Nakata in an excellent game.

Damn....I had 2 players play over a 130 minutes....WTF....And even Nishimura played 86....This update will dictate if I go TIE or Normal in the 1st game. I am dreading 5:40 for the U-21 update.....(feeling good about my team though)

That's awful. Japanese managers? 86 is borderline... might be ok.

My players had a spread, didn't work out quite as planned. Against a bot last night, my starting C (3rd stringer, but still better than opposition) fouled out in 7 minutes. My starting PF fouled out in 21 (SIGNIFICANTLY better than opposition). Weird game, completely screwed up my minutes for the end of my roster.

Dude....it is worse than that.....so the guy replied back and said he thought I would be happy because his player got double the training.....hahahahahaha!! WTF....he thought that since 48 is full training that 96 would be double training...Damn...crazy I tell you.

Good training update. I am still lacking bigs but I am trying to hunt one down now. BTW...Lot's of pops. OD/ID/REB/ pops...driving and handling pops. Like I thought...I have two players with inept GS..owners claim they did not know that the swet spot for training is between 50-70. Crazy. Next Monday we have our 1st game....Let's see what this team can do.

It is great to see you not just managing the team but also helping the managers get better. My minutes were bad because I had injuries & foul outs just about every game in the last 2 weeks making things hard. Ichiro Nishimura is my guy but 16 fouls in the last 3 games makes him hard to train.

Nippon vs. Saudi Arabia 76 - 52 (22303)

A great win against the Saudi team, well done.
