When Barca beat LA-Lakers on a scrimmage game, about a year ago, don't you think that both fan bases had some affect due to that?

90% of LA fans didn't notice/care(they probably should have because Lakers played all of their regulars for the entire match). I don't even think Barca cared too much about the result. It wasn't an official league or tournament game. Same with scrimmages there should be no fan reaction to it.


Barça supporters we cared :D

There was a big expectation in our city for the match and the arena had almost full attendance(and the prices were high).


It was a prestige victory for our basketball team.
Thank you... And with that - Point, set and match

You didnt even bother reading his message. He was talking solely about the game vs. LA, not a single line about the outcome of the NEXT game.

Fair enough, but did it matter as much as a key Euro league or ACB game?
"Interesting" that you are changing the argument...
The claim had been - there should be an affect of the scrimmage games, but just a smaller magnitude of affect.

"Point,set and match"?It still doesn't mean that scrimmages should have an effect for fan survey in buzzerbeater. In real life, there isn't minute management for gameshape or training. So in a friendly game in real life, you can play to win and since you are playing to win the fans might care. Most users who know what their doing in BB don't take scrimmages seriously because it is just for Game shape/ training.... Thus you were still wrong, Pini...

I guess this is your "neat" way to face the reality.
A reality where that game had a lot of affect on fan base, and as such brought a definite affect to the feeling for that fan base about the upcoming season.

And once again, the same bunch of users has no claim to support their original claim ("scrimmages should not affect fan base"), and as always goes to the all-mighty, always true, and full of strengthening claims for "This is not a real BB game".

Of course, and as always, there is not a single claim that connect that nonsense to the suggestion raised - why it should not affect the fan base.
Surprised I'm not.

I'm surprised Pini, I thought you were smart enough to connect the dots. Alright I'm a nice guy, I'll explain. Scrimmages should not affect the fan survey in buzzerbeater because in Buzzerbeater most of them are played without the intention to win. They are just for minute management. Usually I do not play my regular players in scrimmages. Most managers who understand gameshape and training do not play their best players in scrimmages. The winner in a scrimmage does not matter, thus the fans should not care.

It would be rather fun to see how many teams that actually do use their good players in scrimmage games. I guess we would be way down at 0.0... something percent.
Not relevant. When a rule changes teams need to adjust.
Like when adding the 3Pt line, the 24 seconds, etc.

The scrimmage is for maintaining GS and getting an extra training opportunity. I cant see why ever this would need to have influence on my fans.
Because, and as I've prove with the Barca-LA game, it does.
You want to have a shorter (quatliy) roster? You will need to pay for that...

I guess the LAL game that is mentioned so much in this thread is an extreme case that is hard to find a comparison to. There is a pretty fierce debate about what continent has the best basket and this game probably was taken as a pointer by the spanish fans. If they had lost it would probably just have been a fun exhibition game.
Totally irrelevant.
The fact is that this was a scrimmage game that has affect on fan base.

As I wrote few times:
1) Any game has affect on fan base.
2) Winning a better team has bigger positive affect.
3) Losing to a lesser team has smaller negative affect.
4) Scrimmage games have smaller affect than a real-game, but it does have affect.

Users that tries to make their BB-managing easier need to pay for that.
