You know Kopitar? He's such a good guy and the biggest celebrity in our country


I don't know him and haven't met him, but I'm a long-time Kings fan and he quickly became my favorite player. But from the people I do know who are actually in LA who have met him or know him, he's definitely the highest quality of person off the ice too. And of course I loved the stories of Slovenians staying up essentially overnight to watch the Finals a couple of seasons ago and the eruption when he scored in OT to beat Brodeur in game 1.

But it can't exist any debatement about how building a player that is cost effective that sees a reduction of ID to such a low level
Defenses are good to train to high level in any cost efficiency model


The key to BB is creating a salary efficient team, not running a particular tactic. Yes, in D.III where most of your experience is, 10 ID rather than 12 ID may make a big difference. Against 19 IS, it’s negligible, just as there’s not a dramatic difference between 3 ID and 5 ID against 12 IS.

Take my starting center, Macaldo, for example. His primaries are 19/9/18/4. This allows him to score efficiently (forcing opponents to think twice about running a 3-2) and rebound against even NT level bigs, while costing me a mere 85k a week. To increase his ID from 9 to 12 (which would do little to slow down elite bigs), he would cost over 120k a week. To get his ID to 18, where he would be much more effective but still struggle with a lack of SB, I would have to pay over 250k in salary.

I’ve found that investing in other areas (RB, OD, PA, etc.) produces a much more effective team.

You did something very smart for your specific situation,and exploting the weaknesses of your adversaries team,you are a pretty good manager
The problem is that it's impossible to reproduce this strategy to the lower levels,and given that the problem of LI dominance is general,your laudable example can't alone change a comme in the debatement
Put out an NT caliver level Od or better,it's not something that can be done if not by having enough money to sustain these kinds of superdefender guards and skyhigh IS.

You're entirely backwards. The point at which LI becomes unbeatable is well above any level you (or probably I as well) willl ever reach - it's at the top end of the B3 game. Below that point, it's definitely beatable - or else I'm just living in some sort of weird hallucination this season. Please try to remember that things *YOU* can't do isn't the same thing as things that can't be done.

The problem of Li being dominant over the other tacticts(that doesn't mean laways unbeatable,but means that the most of the time LI wins) is at every level,not just at the very top end of B£
Don't take things too personal

You keep right on believing that, and I'll keep on refuting it on the court against better teams than either of ours. ;)

Stay on topic, and don't troll.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

You would need to explain why you something that works at the highest level can't work in lower divisions because I don't see how this could be true?

From what I remember playing in the lower divisions teams were successful with all sorts of different offensive and defensive tactics. I can remember wining my D3 league playing outside tactics. It isn't until the highest levels of BB that the successful teams have all gravitated towards 1 offensive and 1 defensive tactic.
