thats good mate. i reckon the hardest thing is finding a good balance of players to be honest, and some good strategies. i was unlucky not to get promoted last year, got a good strong team now, the game is pretty addictive ive got to admit. been playing for about 1 season now.

see you at the next match

cheers mate

My tip would be to get a decent handle on the game before doing things like spending money on players and expansions. The first couple of players i purchased i overpaid for, and while being serviceable players, i could have spent my money a bit wiser.

Zylers training thread can also be quite helpful too, to set up a good training regime for your younger guys. He will send you personalised messages to help sort out the good and the bad in your team, really helped me out.

I started playing roughly this time last season, maybe even a little later and somehow i'm undefeated this season. God knows how that happened. But yeah, if you just learn game a bit before spending your hard earned cash, that will help give you a good jump start. Might be a little harder earlier on getting wins, but will help you to springboard later on!

If you need a hand with anything i'll try and help out, just BB-Mail me.

Attention class the dean is here.

If you are seeing this message and your player is 18/19, you may have a prospect who, if trained right, could be an U21 prospect. If you want help training your player, you can contact the following people:
For guards/SF's: iwen (196208)
For bigs: aussie dude (196262)

There are also threads on the Aussie forums where you can post your player for help/opinions

If your player is 20/21, then you have a potential U21 player. Contact the U21 manager ((38600))

Think this means I hit the jackpot!

Transfer list this player:
Starting Price:

You will receive 97% of the sale price after fees. ( More info )


Your offer is not a number. You cannot place a player on the transfer list without an initial bid greater than 0. You cannot place a player on the transfer list with a starting price this high.



Transfer Price Estimate: There have been 198 recent transfers of 18 year old point guards with respectable passing and allstar potential. Darren Hartley is probably better than all 198 of these players, but the few that are most similar have been selling for around $ 120 000 to $ 1 550 000.

Hello, total newbie here, I don't even know much about basketball

Then you are luck the Dean is here and I can teach you everything there is to know about real basketball. Not so much about this game.

I was going to ask you for tips on how I can win my next two league games, especially the one on Tuesday ;)

If you only set 3 players then two "lucky fans" get to play. They are very lucky and luck is good so I think you should try that on tuesday. After that we will probably never play again so I may be a little more helpful.

You bought a player called Percy Cock. Nice.

Lets see if we can knock this off the Managers checklist?

Should work according to BB post (171828.4)

Dear Student,

I am enjoying this game a lot too. I am very impressed with how you are going, an excellent record. I think you are doing the right thing training and making money. I have 3 young guys I am teaching the game too, one is an A+ student.

There are many good teams in this league but don't forget that all you need is a good record in the regular season and you can still win promotion. I hope to go undefeated the rest of the regular season and hope 20 wins will be enough.

We beat all the Great 8 teams in our crossover matches but we do not have the best team in the league. We think we have the 4th best team so in the playoffs we do not expect to go so well.

With luck you can stay third and make some extra playoff money, but either of us will need luck fighting Shooting Stars.

The Dean.
