did someone get anything special from the draft? mine is crappy. a 1100 player with 6th man potential and a 1700 guy with role player potential. only one of my guys is worth training and I am not sure if it's worth. I wonder if someone found his john wall.

oooh, I like my guy. You know that 18 year old I wanted so much.. He can dribble, he can pass, he can play O/D. He just can't shoot. Looks like its back to single position training for me.

I'm thinking of a great rotation of Mays, the new kid and Mina picking up some scraps. Do you think its foolish to play Mina in scrimmages knowing a) if I train him up any further, I won't be able to afford him and b) how important he is to my team's success?

Guess I better go learn his name. But here are his stats:

Booshes:

This is exactly what I have done the past two seasons to stay in DIV 3. I moved up 2 divisions my first two seasons and was ill-equipt to compete. I still have 1 more season of building before a "might" become a treat. I will say this is my first major rebuild and I think my team is much better. We'll see.... And Good Luck!

5. Be pragmatic - I will circle games at home I know I can stay close in, and go CT for some of them. I will always TIE against really good DII and recent NBBA relegates if I happen to end up in the same conference as one. I hope for 7-8 wins and a favorable relegation matchup. Just like Scrap :)

I got a better player than I though although it was my 6 pick. Someone else took the point guard that I was willing to train.

Hmm, looks like I won't be steamrolling teams anymore. I win a nail-biting series to advance to D.III, only to find myself here and feeling pretty sure that I need to sell my highest paid player right away. His training is capped and I desperately need some depth. I know I'm not winning anything this season so I think it's the right move, even if it means relegation. Keeping a roster that won't win anything and has only two trainable players isn't the best way to maximize my assets.

Oh well, should be fun either way. I started in Season 8 and I've been one of just a few active players every season so I'm looking forward to the challenge of playing in a league where everyone is actually playing the game, manipulating tactics to their advantage and getting better every week through transfers and/or training.

This is the only decent keeper I got paying 20k weekly. I say paying for the draft does not pay. Unfortunately training big men was not in the plans for Crazy's this season so he might go TL and hope for the best.

Welcome to all the new managers! Welcome to what many of us think is the most active and competetive D 3 in all of BB!

Good Luck!
