De patoul joined the BBBL

not for a long time
but I couldn't resist :-D

yeah, unfortunatly it wasn't. And if it wasn't for my wish not to return to the BBBL for at least 2 more seasons, I would never have sold him for that price.

Now I'll be needing some good advise on how to fill up my rosters, as I am used to having each player play 1 game as starter, and 1 game as back up. Perfect for a team with 15 players. Now I have only 12, so I don't know how to best fit them in.

I have
2 PG (Vande Sande and Imschoot, both can play SG as well, but in lesser way, Vande Sande can also function as SF)
1 SG (Kenez)
2 SG - SF (Rio Garcia and Quenehen. Quenehen being better at SG and Rio Garcia being better at SF)
3 PF - SF (Rebella, Manic and Appolinario, Appolinario can play C as well)
1PF-C (Sen)
1C (Sarnecki)
and 2 trainees who would play on either the PG or the C position only for training.

Any formulla would be helpfull. If nobody helps I can start puzzling myself, but I'm a bit lazy. ;)

It depends of many factors.

Will you train on one or two positions?

What are your goals for the next season(s)?

How much money have you got?

...

1 position training. Unless I train rebounding, because I can't choose 1 position then.
the 2 trainees will typically always get at least 48 minutes each week. There is 1 restriction here, I can't have Sammy play 48 minutes in 1 game, last season he could, this season he will only get 46. I think his stamina has dropped to 0.
The leftovers are to be picked up by Manic and Imschoot (Manic OD - ID - REB - JR until he pops on that item / Imschoot OD and passing , maybe some JR, but no ID nor REB)

my goals for the next 2 seasons are train Sammy 100%. Mostly in OD and ID, but also some passing, and rebounding. Maybe some JR.

how much money I have?? I totally don't see what that has to do with it. I'm not planning on spending any, and I have a lot!
If you will only help when I tell you how much I have, then ask me again. ;)

EDIT: oh, and some extra valuable info: I don't mind playing the players out of position as I don't look for wins. My goal is to try to divide the minutes I have each week as evenly as possible among all my players. Except for the trained position, for wich I want to get 3 players as close to 48 minutes as possible, while Sammy needs at least 48 each time.

I don't understand. You ask to have some advises to choice your new players, but in the same time:

- You don't want to train them.

- You don't want to win games.

- You don't want to spend too much money.

So buy players for 1k. You will reach all your goals.

hehe, indeed you cleraly don't understand.

my only goals are these 2:

1: train Sammy for 100%, train the other trainee as much as possible, and have 1 other player get the remaining minutes for training.
2: divide the weekly minutes as evenly as possible over my 10 remaining players

for the trainees it's easy. A plays as starter in game 1, and as back-up in game 2, B plays back-up in game 1, and starter in game 2. The one that didn't reach 48 minutes yet is back up in game 3, the other player in the team will be playing starter in game 3. This also means that the other player can play in an other game as well, but will just get minutes, because he will play in a non-trained position then.
so point 1 is no problem, it's point 2 that is making my head ache.
