Nice!

Now if only we could hit a Free Throw.

Up there in Blocks as well. I think I'll stick with the System and try to Grow Players into it. I have Rookies/2nd Year Players only, so it's fun watching them develop into the Concepts.

I thought this would be a much rougher Season, but so far it's been cruising. I mean we just got demoted, so I should have expected it to be 'easier' than the last League, but I did a full overhaul of talent and didn't know what to expect.

You have thrown the gauntlet! And I accept the challenge. I’m coming for those #1 team spots!

I don't think you can catch me in Steals.
But consolation prize, you beat me on the Score Board.

Maybe. Maybe not. But in our head to head, I had more steals and more assists, which means I gained ground. but the gauntlet was thrown and I am responding.

Using Buzzer-Manager: I have the #1 and #8 guys in steals per game. the #1 guy doesn't even play every game. You have the #s 2, 3, 5, 11, 12, 16 guys in steals per game. The #2 guy and my #1 guy are separated by 1 steal overall more for your guy, despite my guy playing 3 less games. Ogilve is the best stealer on your team, despite being 4th on your team in steals, because he does so at a better clip on a per minute basis than the others.

I have run a steal heavy (FCP) defense 4 times. You have run it all 11 times. In the 4 games I have run it, I have had 75 steals, or what comes out to 18.75 steals per game. the #1 guy in steals played in 3 of those 4 games. And the game he didn't play in the team had less steals than in the other 3. In the FCP defense, the guy who leads the league with 3.8 steals per game, over #2 guy at 2.8 steals per game, averages 4.67 steals per game when playing in FCP.

We are exactly halfway through the league seasons, having played 11 with 11 left. Let the chase begin!

1 game left, and the gap was too much. I couldn't quite catch up in Steals although I did massively close the gap. The 7 extra games of FCP difference made it. As to assists. you are the champ.

It was a worthy attempt and a valiant effort, my friend!

My kids have a lot of room to grow and improve. I could really tell the difference in a lot of Scrimmages, where I was simply out-gunned harshly. That said, I think I will continue on the Youth Development while I Expand Stadium for a good long while.

Maybe I can keep seats pretty filled, find a place where I can sit mid pack, and then sell a few guys that have grown into something viable before whole-sale and starting all over again.
