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?

Nice - High Five.... I would love to know what you found.....

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...

Option A.

I like the post with 14/15/14 and the versatility of the SF. With that high of a rating for OD for the PF I think this team's strongest tactics in a neutral scenario would be LP and 1-3-1 (I assumed 12 rtg is OD for PG "A").

14/15/14 is prob our 4th best U21 post currently though from what I can see in the NT database. Its also almost exactly my C on my current roster. We should (hopefully) see 18/19 rtg for top posts in IS, ID. Hopefully SOMEBODY is training their guards on passing.

Looking at a potential roster of NT Candidates I think we are an inside team this year. I think we need to maximize our post strength, start a big lineup and encourage the guy holding the 5 OD post to pause his inside training, go Pressure for 3 weeks, HN for 2 and then back to an IS,ID,REB rotation. Having a player who can anchor your D at the sf with a high OD and ID makes it much less impacting on your PD in a non-PD focused D.

Customized training plans should be sent to the top 12 guys. And we need to define a SF training plan that maximizes the overall depth at that position. Regardless of our debate on whether we can impact the training of a SF for the 21 team, it is most certainly our weakest position.

Why would you run a 1-3-1 against a team that likes to push the ball? That doesn't mean they won't look inside or low post you.....

They could kill your tactic knowing your PF and C are the way to go by going 2-3 themselves...

I am not saying, I am just saying

Its not about the matchup. . .that's why I outlined this as their best "neutral" settings. 1-3-1 bc of the 4's ability to trap due to their high OD. It wasn't clear that these teams are matching up, so my point is that I don't believe Option A's strength is necessarily PTB, but that they should go inside to their bigs. I'm not advocating 1-3-1 against PTB, I'm advocating that Option A is naturally an LP offense and according to their personnel a 1-3-1 defense.
