Thanks for the heads up.

We're inside of 10 minutes now so I don't mind divulging that I went MTM with PTB.

Here's hoping the increased pace combined with my superior rebounding compensates for the fact that I did not know whether he'd stick with the way he beat me previously or revert back to his usual line up.

I'm also hopeful that if he went with 1-3-1 again, I'll get enough opportunities inside that I'll overcome his defense.

Looking like I should've followed your advise and stuck with the 2-3 zone.

he's attempted precisely 1 shot outside of the lane so far this game. Looks like another season in IV for me if something doesn't change.

Alternately, why haven't I attempted any 3 pts with PTB? I have very little experience with this offense, I figured it would be a good mix but it seems I'm going to the hole a lot more too.

Well, it appears its an ask and you shall receive type thing here on BB.

Went back to watch the game and the team fired off 3, 3 pointers. Only made 1 of them but it was nice to see my guys doing a little bit of what we're good at.

Closed the gap to 2 to end the quarter. I can live with the way things played out towards the end.

Judging by the news on HT, BB may be taking a back burner.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke
Charles: Penn has some good people
A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

I'm still here. Admittedly I was a little distracted the last week or so.

That being said, I don't think I'm a savvy enough scouter to have done anything differently.

I'm not upset about not promoting. This gives me another season to get my team in order.

In the draft, I got a role player, a bench warmer and this guy:

Leslie Toney (9208950) Center
Owner:
X-steppers

Weekly salary:
$ 2 119
DMI: 0
Age: 18
Height: 6'7" / 201 cm
Potential: superstar
Game Shape: respectable
Jump Shot: atrocious Jump Range: atrocious
Outside Def.: mediocre Handling: mediocre
Driving: awful Passing: inept
Inside Shot: pitiful Inside Def.: average
Rebounding: mediocre Shot Blocking: mediocre
Stamina: inept Free Throw: inept

Experience: atrocious


Is there any reason in the world to attempt to train this guy?
