I have scouted all the opponent players - salary only - not fully in depth. I've also went through their tactics/strength of opponents/enthusiasm. I see we need to go 5-1 to finish at 5-3 with not horrible PD to make playoffs.

Estimate:
3 for sure wins
0 for sure losses
3 too close to call

So the difference will be game shape, tactics, enthusiasm, and luck to get 2-1 and not 1-2 or 0-3 out of the close games.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

Awesome. Not a terrible draw, at all.

I'll do my best to make sure Paul Lebrun is the best, most well conditioned healthy scratch he can possibly be. :-D

Consolation play begins with an 89 point thrashing of Guatemala.

Stacey leading the way with 27 pts on 9 of 11 shooting (and 9 steals), with Poulin putting in 21 on 8 of 9 shooting.

Also, 12 assists for Blain, 14 rebounds and 5 blocks for Baddeley.

Nobody over 30 minutes played. Next up to face the Canadian intensity is Azerbaijan.

Speaking of U21... I've been really wanting to read your U21 guide, any ETA of when it's coming out?

The only thing I have to add is an example player coming out of a hypothetical draft. How to train, at what position, using what tools for estimating skill pop times, salary changes, etc. This will be done, hmm... hopefully before all star week. Definitely before the end of season draft, when newbies might be actually using it.

Awesome! Since I'm pretty sure I'm still a newbie, I can't wait to read it and learn more about training and what is required for U21.

What is required is already in the first post. Anything involving how to train, at what position, what it trains, etc, can be found in the help guide > (144856.30)

Oh but I meant skill points and other things of that like. Also how you guys ranked players. I mean I see the ranking in the offsite forums, but I mean how do you think it through when judging players, and with the increased weighting on SB how is that going to affect your choices

Skill points are also in the first post. Did you read it?

Mhmm, I read it, but besides the raw skill points, there are bound to be a bunch of guys with similar skill sets, (I'd think) but what makes you choose that one person rather than the other, just really want to know your thought process when choosing players for U21.

Recently cannot be picky. Few players this year met/came close to meeting those.

This is something we want to build to, where players are battling to beat each other out and be honored to make the team, not just be put on the roster because there is simply nothing comparable out there.
