see... i didn't think he was necessarily cheating. Only after the edit & seeing a couple more extremely iffy sales it crossed my mind. Thought he was just a price gouger / aggressive day trader.

Like right now, literally half his team is up for sale. As it probably always is. Just looking at the bottom 3 players:

--> 18 year old with star potential: atrocious inside shot, pitiful inside defense, pitiful rebounding, no skill higher than respectable.... yours for only $220k!

--> 18 year old PAS: under $2k salary, generally bad. only $180K! what a steal!

--> 33 year old bench warmer, max skill is average, but salary over $1k, so he won't save you money over buying & firing scrubs... only $100k! you can't go wrong, pull the trigger!


If someone bites, is it cheating? IIRC his sales went to different countries too.

Nice comeback. Down 6 with about 30 secs left & you won in regulation!
Wasn't expecting your game to be the close one. Well, til i saw the lineup...

I would not have assumed that Proficient (med) would get out o-flowed by average (high), but that's what happened. Your guys got a lot of high percentage shots. You'd figure your trainee SG would struggle to drive to the basket against solid OD, but I guess that isn't the case? Also given his ridiculous PP100 at shooting guard, that Inside Shot vs ID+SB matters more than OD vs handling/driving/etc.

More missed shots produced? I don't have overall totals, but on contested shots, you've allowed 146/416 (270 missed shots), compared to 114/429 (315 missed shots) against me. That's ~3 extra missed shots per game just on contested shots. Assuming I'm a bit better on uncontested shots as well, maybe that 4-5 more defensive rebounding opportunities per game more for my guys?

You're having a very unlucky season


I dunno, I'm starting to think my team has some sort of overall build issue that doesn't come up in the Ratings or PP100. Against the New York Jests (he had effort I had HCA, call it a wash) the ratings would indicate I should have blown him out, yet it was a 2 point game with Two and a Half minutes left.

7 of his assists came from a guy he was playing at C


No doubt, Carino's getting really good. But how did Carino get so many quality touches despite such poor o-flow coming from the PG spot? You'd normally expect that team to be jacking up 3's and long jumpers.

If the season ended today before the next intra-league run, every one of us in the Great 8 albeit AZ, if placed in the Big 8, would be fighting to avoid relegation. :) Now, this really is pressure!

complete separate note - LIB/AMB game was strange - LIB pulled in a win despite much higher ratings from AMB?

you'd all be at least 2 games up on the dreaded 7 seed though. overall the big 8 took the interleague battle, but only by 2 games.
