Yeah Kitanning Tornadoes upper management has started paying witch doctors (unofficially, ofc) to hex certain key players on other teams. Looks like it almost worked. Next week!

Not doing the B3, because I didn't have time to start early and actually look at the rosters to make informed predictions.

Glad you didn't get him. What was his defense, prominent OD/respectable ID?

Wow that second 6'2" guy was a five star rating... But judging by his boxscore -> He has low stamina or has a fouling problem. It looks like he can't shoot his passing is high but handling is low.

poor stamina and shooting for sure. I think we might see different box scores, but in mine he's 2-8 in 23 minutes with 0 fouls. Probably also an atrocious rebounder, not that that's a bad thing in a guard--it keeps the salary down. How do you get the high passing + low handling?

He had 7 assists and 3 turnovers. Just a guess.

10/10/2011 - Kittanning Tornadoes has just acquired Li Zhizhi for $ 70 400.
Not cool.

Leme guess he's something similar looking to Himadas, Ariate + more JS/JR, and a SF type of guy.

Definitely not a SF, because his JR is kind of lacking. He's pretty similar to Iriarte but not much to Himadas. He's again one of those nice LI point guards, because he has some IS, but unlike Iriarte he has a respectable JS and inept JR (not great, but a slight improvement). Slightly worse IS (mediocre to average) and awful rebounding, but average ID means he can defend the SF like Iriarte. This will probably move Himadas to the backup SF come playoff time. His best asset is his sensational passing. I got him for a couple of reasons: (1) Most important reason, he fits the traditional Tornadoes PG model (less OD but good passing/driving, IS, ID), (2) he's fairly young/cheap, so he'll be around for a while as a backup at least, (3) I don't want your perimeter defense to interrupt my offensive flow if I can help it. From everything I hear that's what kills LI.

Oh, one other thing: he was injured now, which means I can buy him for less, but he'll be healthy when I need him. I like buying injured players, more likely to get a bargain (see: Faina, Rafael).

He's only injured for a week, having been injured in a scrimmage this past Thursday. So he should be healthy on Saturday for that game and the first playoff game, and barring an injury in one of those, he'll be ready to play against your team. As for the 136 points, I experience a similar feeling when I see that your defense held them to 39 points.

Oh, one other thing I should mention about the newest KT point guard: he has prominent free throw shooting ability, which should come in handy if you're fouling a lot.

I don't have money at all. This shopping spree that I was hoping for today, is failing. Big time. :c
