no one does that in real life

Maybe you aren't following that much real basketball, Barcelona can easily dress 2 Euroleague teams with their roster. Many other teams are loaded with top players or top reserves, Real Madrid, Efes, Milano to mention a few. Olympiakos has Quincy Acy on their roster even though they are sparingly using him (something which emphasizes the fact that coaches want multiple solutions to be there available for them) In real life you will DEFINITELY NOT SEE teams with 5 stars with 1 or 2 semi-reliable reserves and then 3-4 yoyos that are like division c or d in real life terms

Sorry to our non-European managers that I brought comparison from the European competition (that might not be aware of the teams and the names that I mention), but buzzer resembles that model with the local competition, the cup games and the top level competition (Euroleague) rather than the NBA.

I like exhaustion feature. All basketball clubs in RL needs at least 8-9 good players for roster. Buzzerbeater 5 players roster is not RL basketball friendly at all. This was always my biggest complaint in BB. Im glad that BB trying to do something against that and our game will be more like real basketball games! Way to go BB!

Even in NBA that is not true, you can make the case during the playoffs when most of the teams really use only 7/8 players, but in regular season nobody does that unless if you're Thibodeau and your goal is ending the player's career

But the financial aspect is a problem. For example if a teams need to buy bench players to compete at the highest level and because of the salaries they do something like sell a 150k starter to buy a 100k starter + 50k bench (let's assume that the salaries matches their skillset) it's just don't make any sense the best overall player became a liability.

Maybe with this new approach would be interesting monetize the cup games, I don't watch european basketball but I imagine that Real Madrid don't giveaway their tickets income to charity

Something really needs to be made

Yes, train more carefully.

Let's ask good managers. Managers that won several B3s from a big country. Darkonza ... ask them if it is possible to keep salaries under control.

You say it is impossible. But whatever you say means nothing.

(and NTs is a farms game. It always was and it always will be)

Spot on, Joe!
