I'm in the same boat as you. My salary's skyrocketed to the point where I will now have to sell one of my top players who I have been training for well over a year now. It sucks but I'll adapt to it eventually. There's no choice unless you want to be broke. You will have to sell your players and train up new ones.

hi there I'm going to be okay this year as I still make about $50k each week but if my three trainess improve as well this season as they did last then I will need to get promoted to keep them all.

How about modifying your training so your players don't get overpriced. Maybe focus on secondary skills. I changed my training to add more passing and outside shot for my big men so the salary he'll end up with is more manageable.

Hi there I already have them on a 4 week cycle so they are inmproving but not massively in one area - my best player is proficient in one area and strong in 4 others waiting to pop so his salary only jumped to $9k+ this season he is only 19 so has a fair amount of potential.

This is a fine idea if training is your prime objective. You have to play you C/PF at PG/SG to train them passing and more often than not they are going to initially suck at it so its a risk you are going to have to take as you might lose games by playing guys out of position

Hi MB

I suuffered that last season playing my PG and SG's out of position for the season - lost some big games and missed out on promotion but think it was worth it. I have three really good prospects plus another couple who just pick pick up pops on the one vs one training week. Hopefully this year I will be able to finish higher this season and be better placed for a shot at Div II.


thanks

I'll be fine - but I was operating with a huge profit buffer last season and was running a very low salary team since I emphasize defense and don't seek out high level scorers.

I saw about a 25% salary increase and a 15% TV money increase, but the salary increase was mostly training, I believe. My bigger concern is that I may have mis-judged the market cycle and when all my trainees are ready for the transfer list I may get less for them than if I would have put them up before the last playoffs despite their getting lots of training since then.

I estimate that I will still probably make $175k-$200k profit per week for most of the season if I can stay just above .500.

Yeah the salary increase from the adjustments was 5-10%. Luckily for me it coincided with me going up a division, in div IV I would have had to rethink the strategy
