Itshaki going 9-9 on 3's is pretty wild. I think both teams shot north of 60% so no defense was played:)

Congrats to everybody who made the ASG. Hopefully you got a fat merch boost coming this next update.

Entering this last week of interconference matches, it's no mystery which conference came out on top.

To any Discord users, please stop in and visit the BB Underground. An independent server managed by myself and Lambini (of III.5 infamy) that features BB and non-BB channels. Our members span the gamut from D4 startups to NBBA teams and even U21/NT coaches. https://discord.gg/uE6mf8G

I'm looking forward to a tough road test vs. BOLTS this weekend. BTW, if you read this Bolt, please update your ticket prices my dude! Buzzman has an OK arena management tool. It's not gospel but it'll help you get your earnings up to D3 level and you can fine tune it as you go. https://bit.ly/2RN42gX

Good luck down the home stretch of the season to everybody as we jockey for playoffs and RL seeding.

-Mix

How does a team take a 16 point lead into the 4th and then give up 50 pts with the opponent not shooting 3's? Asking for a friend.

There's just so many scenarios that could lead to that result. 16 points is not a large lead that would fend off a major run. Perhaps your friend needs defense off the bench to stifle runs while the starters rest.

You can run it through the matchup analyzer https://bit.ly/3bR1jef and see what the #'s look like. Your friend may have fouled the other team into the bonus early.

I'm less surprised about giving up the lead, but giving up 50 points in a quarter hasn't happened often, if ever. I need to watch the replay to see gameflow...

I can't add much except to agree that 16 points is nothing for my team to give away, even late in the 4th quarter, and scoring 50 in one quarter does happen infrequently. I can't say I have ever given away a 16 point lead and had a team drop 50 on me on in the same quarter--at least not in recent memory. Using aggressive tactics like RNG w/FCP can lead to wide swings in the margins with competitive teams and this GE does seem to grant consistently the favored team in a contest one dominant quarter. I don't know if any of that correlates to the specific match in question, but it's all I have.

Anybody do any draft scouting yet? I am trying to decide if it is worth spending or saving my draft points.

I just started looking last night. So far it is slim picking for players I am looking for this year, but I have never used conventional training methods and I pretty much just blew up my team. I saw one possible NT candidate if the draftee found the right home; If someone were looking to train best available, I saw two or three that would probably be worth some investment.

@LDR - That new 'Murican look to your squad is nice! Great pickups on the TL.

Thanks! Needed a change. Thinking about going Homegrown, but it will take a few seasons to transition and I might get relegated a few times. We are taking our lumps tonight in the PL.
