I like what they're trying to do.. adding to the game viewer.

I actually find it comical when a player of mine makes a basket and is told that he can't buy one. Maybe it's the low low salary I'm providing these cats.

Sounds like a good idea.

Yea me too but at the moment I've gotta emphasize the word 'trying,' because it's just a giant fail so far. In my last league game, my best player had one of his best games, but repeatedly had the can't buy a basket line. Once was after he missed his 3rd shot (I believe he was 10-13 at that point) but the rest of the instances came after he'd made the shot. The erroneous double-doubles are annoying too although in tonight's cup game, the only time I remember seeing that line was after my center did, in fact, record a double-double! +1 to BB's for trying to spice things up but some fixes are needed.

There are popcorn venders near courtside that sell bucket's of popcorn that smells really good.

Some players are always trying to get a freebee, but often the vender says no.

Since the players don't have pockets they usually can't buy a bucket.

^ lol

Anyway, this commentary doesn't bother me too much. It should be fixed, but I can't say it's a big deal to me.

Bring on "Boomshaklaka!" and "Nail in the coffin!" as the next comments!

Personally I think all the fuss is hilarious.

In general developments and attempted to enrich user experiences are appreciated by the users. And I'm sure most of us appreciate the efforts the BB's are putting into the game, making BB better than it is.

One of the reasons I've purchased supporter and extended it is because the game is fun and still getting interesting and great updates. Plus the developers actually mingle with us in the forums and look for our feed back.

Plus, it's a fun, cool past time / hobby to look at during breaks at work or when I'm resting up at home.

When there are new patches and new items on the game, obviously there will be issues in the beginning.

Its not like they aren't aware of it.

Its not like they're not working on it.

So does all the additional unnecessary and repeated whining and ranting on the boards really fulfill anything at all?

My only point of dissatisfaction is the way they are running their facebook page. :P

Some one should moderate and update it regularly. Otherwise there's no real point of having social media that's just a ground for people to post 'BUY ME PLAYA NAO!' or 'BB SUX SERVER IS DOWN 20 SECONDS NOW!'

But that's a marketing issue. And doesn't concern me as user / player... jus irritates me a lil thats all. :P

I got this last night, it was the last 5 or 10 seconds, and my player got the ball, and it said can't buy a bucket, and the clock experired, first time i've seen that.

They should give us the most annoying comment ''If you don't like this, you don't like BB basketball.''

How about this: In one of my games at the end of first quarter with 00:00 left my player gets fouled but nothing happens. If he's not shooting why foul him? Theoretically it's possible but I've never seen it in real life.

Theoretically it's possible, that's the obvious answer. Maybe this happened (although those are non-living programs, I'll take them as real players): Your team had a foul or more to give and they were defending till the end of the quarter. A player, the fouled one, tried to penetrate and his guard thought that it was the best time to commit a foul and force the team to inbound the ball, which would give them a lot less chance to score than they had when the fouled guy was penetrating. However, the guy who fouled didn't track time well so he fouled in the last second. (The penetrator also lost track of time.)

I once had a lead of twenty, but you know how those fourth quarters go. They managed to erase the lead and then, boom, last second shot from half-court was missed. But foul. They won. How stupid was that foul?
