Straight tanking is rough, it's the slightly worse version of being in a DIV full of bots. Are you looking for a homegrown future NT level player? Or just a U21 player? Drafting a NT capable player seems like such a long shot these days.

That's an admirable goal, it definitely is a lot of fun, though I only made one season in the NBBA with no hardware to show for it with mine on my first team.

I have been working on the idea of a training pipeline, by staggering my trainees out with a new trainee every 3 seasons. Early on I have been lucky and drafted Rosado and Frazier in the right seasons, but I fear for my 3rd trainee in the pipeline I will have to rely on buying one. Still most of the work is training so it counts in my book

Greetings from Kansas!! You don't have much to worry about from Pirate King Sterling Archer's favorite Lacrosse team this year. I didn't plan on promoting because I wanted to shore up a few spots, but one of the guys in my IV league made some moves that were in bad form so I just had to show him.

I'll never CT a regular season game and also won't tank a league game for the tourney. If, after a couple of seasons, I make it to the playoffs/finals and lose because of a bad sim I may, in a fit of rage, insult all of your mothers and swear never to return.

I usually play straight up (ala Bill Self) and never try to game the sim by putting a shooter out of position while running patient. I'm also not one of those guys that let's the sim pick the lineup for me.

We hope to win a few to hang around because you all seem a decent bunch of fellows.

Here's my predictions. I've included top 8 salary for each team as well as % of guard salary/% of big salary within that top 8. I considered anyone that was listed as a PF or C as a big. And I ask 1 question per team.

Big 8
1. Mighty Moose Rockets
$389,989 - 39.84%/60.16%
Can anyone defend Cuberas?
2. Hastings Hornets
$241,420 - 53.97%/46.03%
Will they use their promo bonus to support their top 3?
3. Dark Matter
$283,656 - 47.7%/52.3%
How much will they show their age?
4. Slashing Dragons
$233,439 - 50.34%/49.66%
Can they survive 2 young trainees?
5. New York Newts
$208,902 - 54.81%/45.19%
Can they take the next step?
6. Lake Charles Creoles
$193,111 - 72.31%/27.69%
Will they get 3-2'd every game
7. SKILLZ THAT KILLZ
$229,549 - 45.41%/54.59%
Will their short bench come back to bite them?
8. Archers of Loafcross
$195,583 - 49.41%/50.59%
Will their depth surprise?
