There's 3 types of players in this game. Ones who play at a skill level EQUAL to their salary, ones who play at a skill level LESS then their salary suggests, and players who are MORE skilled then their salary. Players who tend to play better then the salary in which they are paid are multi-skilled players with good skills other then their primary skills. These players are easier and cheaper to acquire by training. You can also find 33+ year old players which multifaceted skill sets for fairly cheap, but while your trainee's will continue to get better throughout a season and play ABOVE their salary, are way more beneficial in the long run, as opposed to 33+ player who may play very well throughout the season, will continue to lose skills as the season continues and become less valuable.

You have to be patient with this game, and building value with your own players, along with buying some key depth here or there. You will find a very good player for your team with 1M though. I suggest if your going for an SF, maybe try to find a SG with strong-prominent inside defense, but you don't really need any other inside stats considering you run Princeton/Motion all the time, and these players can come relatively cheap. That is if you want to continue to run outside offenses.

Im not looking for a young player. Im looking for a 26 - 33 years old small forward. You know a guy who can score 20 points per game. Like the player i have right now. Well now i used my money to make a bigger arena. i think 1mil is enough.to buy a pg or sg.

It doesn't have to be your arena, but the best way to get ahead in this game is to make money, regardless of how you do it. Lots of guys do it with smaller arenas by training guys to sell for profit. That is probably the fastest/best way. If you're not interested in raising money that way you have to have a bigger arena. Your players are going to get too expensive otherwise if you want to promote.

RA is right though, that a mil will buy a decent older guy. I think we may have different definitions of "beast".

Wow. Yeah, your attendance seems pretty weird, Ibrahim. I would drop your ticket prices maybe a bit more. It's weird that your lower tier and boxes are selling so little, maybe drop those a bit and see what works. Do you have a PR guy on your staff? If so, what level is he?

edit; upon further inspection, you need to drop your luxury boxes down to 900-1100, and your lower tier closer to 120-140, if you sell all your luxury boxes even at $1000 a pop, still more profit then selling less then half of them at $1400+
