@Both If you could have a dominant Inside Team with a good guard SF, or a dominant Guard team with a good big man SF, which would you chose, and why? There in no middle answer so pick one.

Doesn't change the fact that your about as good of a manager as Isiah Thomas. You "claimed" that your team sucked because you focused on the NT yet once you stopped you team managed to demote shortly after..


Nah he is better than Isiah. Have you seen the Knicks.......Atleast JP won once and but a foundation for the US NT teams to follow.

Scouting of American players ages 18-21. Always miss some people, but most of the guys should be in the db and up to date.

Your question needs more clarity.

What are the secondaries for the pf and c? Are they passers, drivers, or dunkers?
What is their OD?
What is the ID of the guard and the OD of the forward that would be playing SF?
What is their stamina?
What level are you playing at?
What is their Game Shape?
Are they playing the same position both offensively and defensively?

The face value answer says a dominant Inside Team with a good guard - when you look at all the offenses and defenses you can play, 3 guards fits more permutations effectively than 3 big men do.
To give any further answer without knowing the answers to the questions I asked leaves you without knowing some key information. The game has evolved beyond those static answers.

Interesting did you know the name of your team is of a Soccer Drible and not a Basketball Dribble?

As a fellow demotee, what did you learn from your demotion and how is it going to help team USA?

Option A
Alright the PF has strong OD, 9 JS, and 5 passing and 10/13/9
The Center has 14/15/14 with 2 OD

Option B
The SG has 8 ID 5 IS/4 Reb with 14/9/14
The PG has 15 passing, 13 OD, but 2/2/1 peripherals

Option A:The Guard SF is 11/7/12/10/10 in his guards with 7/8/7 big man
Option B:The Big Man SF is 9/5/9/7/8/11/12/10

Assume GS is proficient on all factors, and assume stamina is at mediocre.

The team likes to run a PTB tactic.

So let us try this again, which team would you rather have in, let's say World Championships.

Again this question is for both Jelme, and Bobo.

I know I am in D5 and this is my first full BB season, but why not vote for me? When I took over last year, I brought a scrub team to the playoffs with dedication and being online every day. I know I probably will not win, but still. If the USA team was so "bad" last year, why not bring in someone who can turn it around? I may be a newcomer to BB, but you can't always elect 10 year vets, can you?

The Guard - pure and simple. I would probably switch the Center and the forward offensively tho.

Option B the guards are not as strong as the inside people are for Option A.

Absolutely...you're right. Taking a DV team to the playoffs (and failing to advance to DIV) absolutely qualifies you to be U21 manager.

You have my vote...
