Actually, Ezi (my semi-finals opponent) was significantly better than me. Ezi had all absolutely world-class NT calibre players and he especially dwarfed me at centre, power forward, and small forward. He probably had 20-30+ TSP/10 at both PF and C and his SF was better suited for this level of competition and inside matches in particular. Ezi's guards were arguably better than mine too. They both had higher IS and were similar elsewhere. Despite all this, I legitimately topped his ratings and pp/100.

My best big man was a plain 17/17/16/10 centre. Another rotation big man, and in fact an inexplicable starter in blank line-up, was a 16/15/15/4 big man with 95 TSP/10. I don't mind my SF, but he doesn't meet some NT criteria for a SF, and certainly didn't compare to Ezi's SF.

I have no idea how my team beat his team. I am mystified that my team put up better ratings than him. It is absolutely incomprehensible that my team put up possibly the best overall team ratings of all-time in B3. By strict ratings, my team was quite good. I believe, though, that Ezi and the Chinese champion (without the injuries) were better than me. Dutch Pacers probably too.

You probably looked at before daily update enthusiasm, sometimes it is a little later as training
i play in B3 many seassons and Wednesday maximum is 12

ask BB-marin or someone else

I have also played in B3 many seasons and I'm afraid I'll need to disagree.

I looked at my enthusiasm right before the match which took place at 7:30 pm (French Time) and I maintain I saw an enthusiasm of 13.

I think overall, the competition is fair enough, especially after they introduced the overextension tax. Perhaps enthusiasm locking would be good, perhaps not. I'll just accept whatever BBs decide.

Big congratulation to Chinese team, well deserved, after all the injuries, and multiple lost finals. I'm really glad for buffalo.

u're a nice man (baloon)

Congratulations to Buffalo.
I'm really glad for you!

You guys have said it yourselves: people in stronger leagues benefit from more income from TV rights and more importantly, a longer cup run. People from weaker leagues have some obvious benefits on their side too. This balances things out and I believe there is no need to change the B3 system.

It isn't fight between teams form stronger leagues and weaker leagues. I suppose you badly defined the problem...It isn't only the problem for clubs from stronger leagues. It affect on all teams in B3. For example, in this season enthusiasm problem was affected on team from weaker league. I mean Canadian league is worse than Chinese. Do you agree with me?

It is very important case for B3 turnament. It could decide who wins! Please, don't ignore it.

Moreover it's simply not logical that results from one independed turnament or league in each country can affect on international turnament. In history of basketball was a lot of so-called "turnament teams" which great played in international turnament, and recorded poor results in the league.

This balances things out and I believe there is no need to change the B3 system.

Benefits of weak and strong leagues will never be balanced. People in stronger league benefit from more income from TV rights and longer cup run, but people from weaker league can tank and easier win trophies. I think teams from weaker leagues don't need enthusiasm benefits in B3.

BTW If users from weaker league want to play in better league they can buy access to Utopia league. People from stronger league don't have to possibility to play in weak league.

B3 should be equal for every team. That's why every team in B3 should play every match with enthusiasm 11.

Congrats to both the finalists!
I'll be playing B3 for the first time next season so if any of you guys have advices or just want to have a chat just pm me, i'd be grateful.
Good luck to all the next season's participants too.

it's only your problem

I can't understand why so much people don't want to change bad and completely illogical rules? I suppose everybody should want make it game better...I'm convinced that the same enthusiasm level in each B3 game would make this game a bit better.

i dont think so ...

more Unknown Parameter can create more interesting a game ...

2 season ago every body used LI tactic ... but now many of managers use of another tactic because of GDP ... GDP increase Unknown Parameters ...

without enthusiasm , the better sum of skills team win ... in this case decrease Thrill of games ...

sorry for bad English ...

Ok I agree...but the border is justice. If somebody get enthusiasm advantage just because of weaker league it's not fair.

Maybe the best idea would be to make a separate enthusiasm just for B3?
