The roster is certainly good enough for the current level (and other than the C, all have many seasons before skill drops). They've also already nearly completed a second arena expansion, and unlike some nameless folks, have actually built luxury boxes and courtside seats rather than piling up a bunch of pointless bleachers. Perhaps someone should reach out to them and see if they'd be willing to write a guide on how to start out in BB, since at a quick glance, I'd say they're probably the most likely team in that conference to make the finals if the other Pineapple team doesn't.

What about bb learning curve?? Now that its been easily mastered by noobs that have no idea what they are doing will this even out competition and decrease incentive to tank?

Teams that require financial advantages to succeed will probably still need to tank, arguably even more than before, since the built-in head start is now less than before. Teams that can succeed with fewer resources because of better management skills will likely move up sooner, since their starting point is enhanced. Ideally, the changes ensure that managers are able to reach their plateau level in the game somewhat sooner.

So it just depends on your skill level?? I consider whoever is still in division 4 tanking on purpose to be intermediate and below. I have basically done every possible way to play. Even when you win a championship in the lowest division its still a intermediate championship as Trainer man has said many times this is the equivalent to middle school basketball in the USA.

I would say if someone in IV has to tank and amass enough money to win promotion via financial advantage, they're not going to be particularly successful in higher level play where those advantages become harder to acquire and the level of competition is greater. My advice to anyone who asks is to spend their early time in the game investing in their arena and trying to learn how to compete and win with lower salaries than your opponents. That way you're building up the economy that will sustain you when you do move up, and you develop the managerial chops to help you have a much better chance of staying up when you go up.

But we're getting way off the point here now. This is all suited for a help forum thread more than this one, which exists for those weird BB games where you can't figure out why you've lost.

Man that game was such a fluke!!! I was so expected to score a 100 points that even my team against a former playoff team in this league scored 115 against Plymouth in a lost... Ugh still don't know the playoff outcome for my division.

Had a guy scored a triple double!!! The reason why you lost is because they had higher double digit scorers rather than the extra two and your 5. The guy team name should really get remove.

This may be a surprise, but outside offenses sometimes have guys who are supposed to have good chances to score based on their skills and matchup, and have good PP100 ratings based on that, who still go out and shoot 25% or less. On the bright side, while outside shooting teams have that disadvantage, and the disadvantage in training speeds and in salary costs, at least they don't get the benefits of additional rebounding or FTs like an LI team does!
