The knockout stage for the First BBM tournament starts tomorrow! And just a reminder if your team is part of the 64 team knockout stage your roster has already been set. Any players you add to your team for the rest of the season are not eligible for the BBM knockout games.

Our Buzzerbeater Player Development Research Department has been doing some research and is very excited with this coming group of draftees and future draftees. These draftees are better prepared than ever before for the training needed to become star players for your team. Because of this, training requirements are changing. Starting next season training for 18 and 19 year old's will only require 45 minutes to receive full training.

Also there will be some slight changes to future draft classes. This will start next season, the draftees that came out this week for season 54 are not changed. It will be slightly easier to find draftees that will be more valuable and 19 year old draftees will have a slight increase in their skill levels, some might even have skill levels in the proficient range!

In seasons going forward you can expect to continue to see small tweaks in the draft and training. We will always do our best to let you know changes ahead of time so you can plan accordingly.

And as announced previously we have been testing an update to Free Throws which will be implemented next season. This will make free throw percentages more realistic and also having Jump Shot and Jump Range become a small part of the equation.

In the forums and on Social Media we have been posting about the progress BB-Justin is making on the App. Soon we will be looking for Beta testers and we want all of you to help us make this app amazing!


Overall, I'm happy that there are devs who are listening to people finally! Thank you BB-Justin and BB-Dr J and for everyone involved in these changes.

Does it mean 19 year old draftees could have 99 tsp at most, if each skill is 9.9?
And 80+ tsp 19 year old draftees will be much better than 55-60 tsp 18 year old draftees.

If you have a Dice with 9 Faces what are the odds that it will land with the 9 pips?
now imagine you have 10 dice and those have faces are from 1.0 to 9.0... what are the odds of having them the 10 of them landed with perfect 9s?

but because they are increasing the Draftee's quality just imagine how many faces do you think they'll be removed from those dices? just ask yourself... if you are to be doing those adjustments... what will your minimum be... will it be 3.0? now what are the odds from that... will you land those 10 dice with perfect 9s?


-edit-
I think BB will just increase the draftees' standards slowly so that the current Trainees would not be overpowered with the next batches to come... so Managers will have no excuse stopping the training sessions they are currently planning for the next 2 Seasons.

45 instead of 48 minutes … sorry, but this will only have an effect if the trainee fouls out in the last 3 minutes of the game.

it's gonna have an effect on those stupid substitutions in the last minute of the game, so it's a considerable improvement
