Timberwolves...thx. Probably wasn't clear in my post but I'm looking at selling my C who is 30 but wonder if I should hold on OR move on. Concur with always trying to develop the next young backup to replace the starter. I've been focusing on the C/PF position for most of my training. Thx again.

I would hold on to him,30 isn't that old. So he can still manage to help your team win. Plus that gives your younger player time to develop. Depending on how much you trust your 30 yr old C. I would hold on to him until he's 33. By then your young star should be ready to take over the starting position. 32, if he's ahead of schedule. Granted you probably wont get much back for your C at the age of 33 as you would at 30.
On my team it took Lee three seasons until he was a starter. I tried him out first as a starter and early on he was doing amazing but after five games in he couldn't buy a shot. So i know waiting three seasons n training him up works. And i decided to lose some money since i held on to my older center at that time.

Also my starting PG is 30, i have younger PGS Ed and Smallwood. But im gunna hold on to my 30 yr old pg after this season bc what he brings to my team. So maybe its the same with your 30 yr old C, idk how you feel about him, if he's declining or what. Only you would know that.

Really there is no wrong way to go. Whatever you feel is best for your club. Are you a contender now or in the next two seasons? If so, maybe hold on to him.

If not, maybe get as much $ as u can for him and start a youngster at C (18-20 yr old)

These are all things i consider before making a move. That plus the league im in. Strong/weak league.

And those are all my secrets lol

Today I learned that Zebulon Baird can get a full court driving layup off in less than 1 second to win a game.............

I've had my share of those games. Like ive been saying from seasons past. Theres ALOT of things about this game that makes you stretch your head. But thats the world of buzzer beater and unrealistic game performance. Like a player or players playing all 48 minutes all season long. Lol so nothing surprises me with this game anymore.
On a happy note, Minnesota gained a game on the Bombers tonight and they still have to face the mudcats, plus us one more time. Won't be easy but maybe we have a chance at the #1 seed.
And this is a season were rebuilding!

I was about to go bankrupt after my push last season so I had to cut some of my best pieces. Down year for us as well. Mudcats seems to have an easy path to relegation

I hear ya loud and clear on the bankrupt. In fact at this moment were -192. And whatever cents. And it goes up from there -230. So, chances are were have to make some more moves. Possibly our backup players will have to go. Hopefully just one. Im thinking my backup PF. Bc i really don't wanna get rid of Eike or whatever his name is. Also Maybe smallwood. But were see when the time comes.
Your having a great season for a rebuild season! Keep up the good work. For us i think its all about how fast Khan can develop

Mudcats is definitely ahead in finical terms. I don't know how he has done it. But i know I've made a few mistakes. Like if i couldnt get a bite on certain players i had up for bid after 3 tries. I would just cut ties with them. And this happened more times than i remember. And that has come back to bite us in the ass bc we got a donut back in return.
Live and learn, right? Lol
As long as we can stay under the -500 mark i think were be okay. Bc isn't it, if you reach the -500 mark you lose your team if u can't get it down after a certain amount of time. Or did they change that?
Anyways, my errors have cost us, in terms of winning now instead of later. Now its about trying to remain competitive while righting the ship. Not an easy thing to do, i think next season will tell us for sure, if we can indeed stay competitive...or sink like the titanic. Stay tune Minnesota

I think that's what happened to me. I went below -500 and had 2 weeks to get the team back into the green financially. And yeah, I just don't have enough time to buy and sell players as frequently as he does, but kudos to him. I prefer to build a team and let them grow. I very rarely make any splashes in the transfer market. Prefer to develop from within. Team's starting to get old though, so some changes will have to come in the next few seasons.

That's one of my favorite things about this game. The training and watch em become a better player in games. I may not necessarily develop my players from within. But i do develop them. Like Romeu i got him 918 days ago, and hes 30 now, u do the math lol. I got him at 63, something and now hes worth 150-460. Albert also.
We did build up Lee Quick and Ed tho, and im happy with the progress each is making. Ed is still worth 1,000 000 even at age 24.
As far as age goes for my group starting next season ill have one at 31 (Romeu) and 30 (Eike) the rest in their lower to upper 20s. Plus were have some 18-19 yr olds next season.

Hoping to get a SF in the draft and a PF. Two positions im hoping to fix my roster.

I have Alberts replacement in a few seasons. Set at PG and SG. So as long as the draft is nice to us, we should be set by the time my starters are ready to hang it up.

Khan is coming along at SG, but hes not exactly ready to be a everyday starter
