Yup. I've been very curious about creating an outside offense as the next version of my team, but I'm not quite sure how to build these guys. My Utopian team is also doing an outside focus, but I'm doing it from the opposite end, training the bigs first.

So every now and then I look through the TL for guys who should be great from deep, and either they're not in the right offense, or on a team about to go bankrupt, or have terrible GS from playing 100 minutes a week. I haven't found a player on the TL, with high to very high JR, that was in a good situation. There are some quality outside oriented teams, with guys who can shoot, but they have no interest in selling so I can't see their builds.

It's a little frustrating, I could wind up spending a few real life years on training players that wind up worse than they would have been otherwise.

Yeah, he is out there, and for an outside team I think he could do well. But I need to do a few things so he is the guys to put on the block.

i would like to suggest a rule that i would call the Delta 9 rule for the week of 5 May:

Any player on the TL is not permitted to play in a regularly scheduled league game if that league game is against a inter-conference opponent on that opponent's home court.

i think this rule would cut down on a major source of . . . teams losing to Delta 9.

and i think that this rule shall be considered implemented unless all 16 teams register their disapproval before 7.59 on Tuesday.

i, for one, think this is a great rule. i am glad it has been adopted by the league. i owe you guys one.

Ha!

While we're adopting new rules, I suggest that my players be allowed to play 3 games a week with no GS hit...and that trainees never foul out, and always play 48 minutes.

Well, if we are going to make this change....we should also see the Economy restored to it's old day glory, fix stupid substitutions by the GE, get rid of GDP, reduce injuries, and the list goes on and on.

you guys are simply creating rules that are obviously self-serving.

i, on the other hand, am suggesting improvements that will enhance everyone's enjoyment of the game.

i was scouting Delta 9. went to my usual source, buzzermanager. went to the list of the league's best (top 20) players (by game ratings).

Delta 9 has 3 of the league's top six players, four of the top ten and six of the league's top 20 players.

one of those six is for sale, so by the end of the week Dmitri will only have one-fourth of the league's very best players.

i feel kinda sick.

You may want to stay seated for a few minutes, or wait until everyone leaves the room....your crush on Delta 9 may be visible to all if you stand up.

That shouldn't be too surprising. They do have the highest payroll in the league.

can i help it if i admire a team that is well put together? that team is stacked, with a couple of sleek guards out front that kept interfering with my passes and a well-rounded foundation that protected his basket very effectively -- i couldn't score last night!

i do think, however, when playing Delta, that penetration is the key, but to do that you have to have great stamina. otherwise, that team will just slap all your balls away and block your shots. a very frustrating team.
