Amazing player. Hopefully he will go to the right team. Would have a go but think he would be wasted in my current team.

If I get some good big man in the future in Utopia, I will properly commit to them in training. This time I will actually play the trainees 144m per week for many seasons (except if and when they get into the u21 and NT)...it should be interesting to see what impact doing that has on Experience.

Btw for people wondering about starting price and timing: despite giving ample notice and allowing people to plan for it, very sadly only one English manager was intested, so I have done as he asked. I might still buy him back if he was going to a foreign manager I deem unworthy and has a serious chance to screw up his GS during the season, but I would not be able to buy him back and relist him shortly after as that would change my sale % from 97 to less than 60.

Lol we played? Haven’t really been able to pay this game much attention in months. Grats on the win, not sure I’ve ever had 3 foul outs of players before.

To be honest, i didn't expect to get this far at all. Not to mention beating Lemon at his court (i went all in thinking i didn't stand a chance) and even fighting Vycka - especially after my horrible game plan lol.

Congrats Vycka and Jakub for reaching the Finals, may the best win!

well, in order to train the kids I didn't play patient (would have played that, if I could slot the trainees at SG). When I saw the double GDP in the first quarter, I told Bergkamp it was probably going to go down to FT% and, in fact, it did. You went 25/25: had you missed 3 FTs or shot a combined sub 70% like you did in the previous 2 games, I would have been the one marginally ahead in the last minute and going to the line due to intentional fouling.

Anyway wanting to TIE, train and not changing tactics (I also forgot to change Strictly, CPfDC would have been enough to win) was probably too arrogant and I got what I deserved. Looking at the ratings, I should have probably won that game even despite all of those things, but rebounding rates ended up almost even and they shouldn't have been close.

You do realise Phil Marichal should have dominated this league the last few seasons and you are basically wasting his prime?
Alan Sharpling achieved much more with far less skill. At some point, you have to try to win...

Eh I did try this time, but I just made too many mistakes. Banuelos will be definitely better than both Marichal and Needham, but yeah the only logical conclusion was to sell Marichal a couple of seasons ago. And while Marichal may be a ok/good player for the NT (more IS and ID were needed), the salary is crippling at club level: I've had to start with Rubio ($58k) at PF for several seasons now and while he looks good stat-wise, when you see his skills you will wonder how he's been regularly making the top lists in points and rebounds.
