Losing money?

Whats a season of Buzzerbeater without a couple of impending bankruptcy bbmails?

Nothing a bit of sponsorship and a few pokie machines around the stadium can't rectify.

Seriously though I blame Shanmag, well actually myself for forgetting to sell Sojka.

Had intended to try to sneak the first 5 or so games and then sell off later in the season (repo sale) and slide down to 5th, but with Hadders gone and the possibility that Smeltz might go bot, I might unload a bit of the salary pressures before then.

Anyone want to buy a 250K centre?

Great news, my players salaries have gone up 50K

I got the Wombats again. I think we're destined to be rivals for all BB time.

I've got wombats second season running, seems to be the only part of the game without a large random factor ;)

I know I am no longer part of the ABBL but I thought you may want to see the top two picks in the draft. It was a horrible draft but I think I can do something with my man.

#1

Sakib Ahmed (24058190) Center
Weekly salary: $ 4 154
Age: 18
Height: 7'0" / 213 cm
Potential: perennial allstar
Game Shape: respectable
Jump Shot: atrocious Jump Range: atrocious
Outside Def.: respectable Handling: inept
Driving: respectable Passing: respectable
Inside Shot: mediocre Inside Def.: mediocre
Rebounding: respectable Shot Blocking: respectable
Stamina: atrocious Free Throw: average Experience: atrocious


With respectable OD and PA he has a good start in life to being a highly skilled center. This season he will be getting guard training so I hope three OD pops, one or two PA as well as some JS, HA and DR. A pity about the potential but I hope to make him a highly skilled and very cost effective backup big man. I will probably have to leave his rebounding a bit behind so he doesn't cap too early in his other primaries. Long term project, but hey he was the #1 pick in the ABBL so I owe him.

Sun Xiangjun (24058185)
Center
Owner: Kynlala Knights
Weekly salary: $ 4 017
Age: 18
Height: 6'10" / 208 cm
Potential: perennial allstar
Game Shape: respectable


Also a pity about the potential and really behind in the secondaries, Iwen must ve very sad.

Royce Radcliffe (24058181)
Point Guard
Owner: Hadders Heros
Weekly salary: $ 5 122
Age: 18
Height: 6'4" / 193 cm
Potential: allstar

Third best guy in the ABBL draft is an allstar? What a joke! At least he wasn't a star.
