No debt needed, still have a little left and enough income to make a small profit if the player is 60k or less.. It will for more than to buy my way out but to keep me up if I can get there. A new piece to your roster, good luck getting your next piece, I will be facing you soon :)

we meet in the last game of the season...should be a nice game. I might actually try and win that one! lol

Good luck

Well, the pre-final tactics have begun! XBB played with their lineup tonight to get a gauge for what to play come the finals where the two of us will meet. I thought he might try this...hope you got something out of that ploy, XBB! lol

I'm surprised he gave up this match with his HCA to test my team lineup...

All the games this round seemed to go as planned with wins for Urmummas, Glenvale Cheaters, Magick, Ozzy Roasters, Hawthorn FC, GC Vikings, CARLTON and the LA Netters.

Maybe the Hawks are going to throw this final series after all....

He coped an injury too, i think he played that line up against you to have a crack at me... Makes it difficult to decide tactics..

Yeah, thought about that as a possibility. At least I know he can't match me with his bigs (event he one he didn't play) and that I just need to shut down his guards...which can be done! Hmmmm....

I will be watching his tactics against you closely, SchaBoom.

Yeah me too, not that it will make a difference, I expect that my roster should take care of his reasonably efficiently, why did I have to have 2,3 and 4 for the last 3 games? lol

Hello, XBB. I must assume that you are reading these posts given your recent purchase! lol
Having recently commented that I can take out your bigs you have brought one to throw a spanner in the works. Coincidence? I don't believe in coincidences...

...my move next, yes?

As I was scanning through the game today, I got up with these questions that might help me to have a deeper understanding of the game.

How does "Driving" affects a player's game exactly?
For a good inside scorer, does he have a good JS rating to go with his inside shooting?
and finally what does a player's experience do??

LOL might be some stupid questions but if you guys can answer them for me or some other experienced manager can I would really appreciate that.

Cheers

I'm sure there's plenty of guys in our league with more experience than me but here's what I think I know.

Driving affects the player's ability to make the right decisions when scoring/driving the key which of course has importance when you play certain offenses and in the positions they play (Eg. LI / SG etc). A guard with great Driving will, with offenses like LI for example, helps them to know whether to score or to dish off. Others will have more to offer on this I'm sure.

"...a good scorer have[ing] good JS..."

If we're talking about a PF, absolutely. A centre with great JS is very handy but not crucial unless in top leagues. If you are just asking whether any player, regardless of position, will be a better shooter if they have great JS and IS...I would say...yes. However, the position does inform this.

"What does a player's experience do?"

As far as I am aware, a player's Experience slowly increases with age and receives "mini-boosts", if you like, from playing in Allstar, Finals and NT games. As for how it affects a player I would suggest it acts as a sub level in Finals games. Again, I'm sure others will have more to offer on this.

Don't know if any of this helps, ZinGa...

PS You put up a good fight tonight and early on your boys looked good. I haven't checked your Box Score to see what eventuated.

Thanks there Matty :) I definitely think that driving have more impacts on a player than I know now. From what I know Driving should be one of the better skills on SF/PF. For the second question I meant that is a good inside scorer necessarily have good JS to come along with the IS, Like does a PF/C with Marvelous IS and Prominent JS score better INSIDE (THE PAINT) than a PF/C with Marvelous IS but only Average JS.

btw my boys did alright tonight in the first half, but they won eventually.

A PF/C with better JS would have to do better than a PF/C with less JS. Especially in a PF who will take the 3 point shot more often than the C.
