few suggestions.

1. the bidding has been an area of long complaint. My suggestion is that people can put in a bid and also put in a max bid they are willing to pay for the player. Example. I put in a bid of 10k on a guy. I am willing to pay up to 150k, and you could set the increase of bids. So increase bid by 10k if outbid. I think it would help things move along far better.

2. How training works in general. The game forces you to only train one position (inside or outside player) or play people out of position. As far as a basketball simulation this is about as far from reality as you can get. My suggestion is that a team can have like 3 coaches to help develop players. The coaches would have specialty in certain stats and multiple stats for better coach. Each coach can train up to 3 players per week. This would allow a team to have a far more in depth and variety in their roster. A center is not going to learn dribbling as fast as a point guard. A point guard is not going to learn inside defense as fast as a center.

3. Some specialized option for game plan. If down 20 or up 20 you could have a different offense and defense you go into. Down 20 you want to go to a full court press for example. Up 20 you want to switch to patient offense.

4. I could be wrong on this but my understanding is that if you play fast it only effects your teams energy. Part of the idea of full court pressing is to wear down the other team. It doesnt make sense who making the game faster doesnt effect both teams.

You should be able to see the qualities of the player you added to your favorites until 1 day after he is sold

Adding more details in Team Overview page would be nice. Right now you can only see their rank, BBM tier and rivals but not the current status of the team and I think it would be a nice touch.

Something that would look like this:

League: 2nd in Big 8
Tournament: Currently in Round 5 (would say "Knocked out in Round 2" if already eliminated")
BBM: 3-3 (Tier 7)

Optimize the schedule during all-star week, so the regular development/game shape of team/players can be kept.

Exactly.
The ASG week shouldn't be counterproductive to what I mentioned at all. I'm not sure if I'm wrong but that cup "problem" only occurs during ASG, right?
It's a weird concept that about x% of the players are playing "normally", while the rest are not (regular-season wise, that is), and that I can see, for this particular week only. It just doesn't make sense, IMO.
In my case, I have no choice at all, being new and from a low division I'm destined to being part of the rest.

It is a challenge to reach this Single-League-Double-Cup-ASG-week.
It is a challenge to make the right decisions that week for all managers.
It bring‘s some variety to all managers … a lot have been eliminated early in the season!

Sorry but missing out on training/development of players during the regular season for no good reason (that I see/know) is not a challenge but a disappointment (also because it will affect the next week or so too).
It's a challenge to get the cup, yes.
Also a challenge to get to the playoffs, etc.
To your point, it seems just a few do have the three games... is there something logical preventing the others from doing the same? Those playing are already having the $ incentive to play but why can't the rest just get the training minutes like on friendlies just to keep this week going like the other 10? The guys in competition would already being rewarded more anyway, right?
I can understand that the playoffs can be different, especially in the end but in the middle of the regular season?
IMO, it just seems like an awkward and senseless penalty to me.
