I read RedDevilz initial post with great interest. While the top of the MBBA is anchored by several teams slugging it out for the prime positions, it is at second tier level that will benefit the country the most with every level of improvement. Promoting to the MBBA is an achievement in itself, but the real challenge is to stay in the MBBA. Doing it in your first season requires so many aspects of team management, it's safe to say you are really on par with the best Malaysian managers if you manage the feat with a squad fresh out of Div II.
Kwaiwah went from Div III to Div II in one season, went from Div II to MBBA in the following season, and stayed there during his 3rd full season. Doing this with his squad is harder than winning the double, take it from me. I hope there will be more up and coming teams promoting to the MBBA and punching above their weight. It really stirs things up when one or two regular MBBA teams find themselves in a relegation spot. Same can be said for the teams on top, everyone made smart purchases to cover problematic areas on the court. So this season, we kissed goodbye to inside/outside oriented teams. Most of the teams on top now have the versatility to mix it up and we've seen some interesting tactical matchups. Expect to see even more next season.
To teams at 2nd or 3rd tier, train up your superstars and I'll see you in the MBBA soon!
