I'll let go of my trainer tomorrow since it'll be friday. I'm not sure if i let go of him now, it'll mess up any training i already worked on. It does suck, he's been apart of my team for 6 seasons. But like anything else, his salary went up/players salary and our window closed up on us. We had a good to decent run, but could never win the championship. I'm thinking i might let everyone go next season, other than Ed,Khan, and Bart, possibly Smallwood, depending on what goes on with his bidding. Who are all in their 20s. Albert will be 29 next season, but next season is a wash for us. So i don't think it makes sense to hold on to him. But im not sure yet. Right now im just trying to make it through this season and im thinking getting rid of my trainer might help us reach the end of the season.

Big win tonight by new York legends beating the Mudcats on their home court. Makes things interesting for the playoff run.

Playoff games and how i see em going:

4) Hornets
1) Foes

I see us winning this one by a large margin, 58-145 something like that. Not sure who will be the key players for us. I think it will be more of a team win.

3) Sharks
2) Bombers

These two teams split the season series. Both winning at home. And i see that trend continuing. 105-97 Bombers. Of course its important for the Bombers to control the paint. I see them doing that in this game.

4) Risers
1) Mudcats

This one could be interesting IF the Risers play more than 5 players (in my opinion) if they don't, i see the Mudcats running away with it. 89-78

2) Shlubs
3) Legends

This might be the most interesting game among the 4. Since i believe its a tight matchup, i always give the home team a .5 avg. So Shlubs 89-83

What do yall think? Any disagreements

I've got a tough one against the Bombers. Going to need everything to go right for me to beat them.

Oh trust me, i know it's tough to beat the Bombers on their home court. This season was the first time we done it, since like season 30 (something like that) so we've done ALOT of losing at the "war zone" arena. Like i said in my other post, i see it being 105-97 in that ball park. And the keys to the game is gunna be your offense against his defense. Bc he has more of a defensive team (in my opinion) plus when his players miss how many second chances u give them. If you can score more often then not on his D. Your be in good shape. Easier said than done, i know lol. Im not sure about your team and how its built, but if you can hit 3s. And your players are in good game shape. Also has high stamina, u might wanna think about pushing the ball on em. A game with more chances for your team to score per quater. Oppose to his team wanting to play at a slower pace. (Defensive team/less shots per quater) only makes a team like that stronger in the ending moments.

Again this is only my opinion and things i picked up on during my games with the Bombers over the course of previous seasons

One thing i would love to see change with this game:

I know its very unlikely to almost impossible because i think with all the leagues they've (64 in the usa) thats where they make their money.

But, i think it would be cool if all leagues were even out (money wise) there for if you win your league, you don't move to another league. Instead you try to repeat against the same teams. And im aware you'd probably have the winner, win multiple championships. But thats basketball for ya. Players do age and decline so it would eventually change. And if you had to move more teams to leagues thats fine. You could still have your money teams and keep it at 8 total teams make the playoffs (4 on each side) adding more teams to leagues would make a 22 season length more interesting i think. Also if they wanted to, add a few more regular season games. More regular season games, more money i would imagine. Specially late in seasons with teams trying to make the post season.

Like i said. I never see this happening. But its like the #1 thing in this amazing free game, that i would like to see in the near future.

Big 8 Championship: The Bus stops here:

Well, we had a great season. Over came ALOT of up's and down's over the course of the season. Starting 0-2, to having to get rid of our trainer/players. Over coming injuries.
The good new's is, we managed to win tonight, the bad new's we lost Albert for a week.
We can't over come that, i know that, the players know that. Having 7 total players, you can't really afford an injury, specially at this point in the season. It felt like a magical season, but injuries are apart of the game and we won't be making any excuses. It just wasn't our time, period. Were rebound and get ready for next season.
Best of luck to the Bomber's, whoever they face in the finals.

Alright...we did our best but it wasn't good enough. Good luck with the rest of the playoffs Bombers.

Well that was unfortunate for me.

Yeah. I'm guessing you don't have the $$$ to hold onto blackman. You should get back a good amount of dollars. Maybe even 3-4K. Wouldn't surprise me. Hell i would if i had the money. But were a small market team.

But yea especially in playoff games, you have to play a full roster. Unless your in a league with all pot teams. Bc if guys foul out like blackman did. Then in this case you've guys out of position. Point guard playing PF/C. Where height becomes a factor. It just throws everything off. Your team is coming around tho. Looking hella alot better than it did a season or two ago. Im sure you would agree.
My team is starting our rebuild(got rid of our trainer.bought in more youngsters for next season) i figured getting a new trainer minus will get young again. Only makes sense. Why spend alot of money on a trainer on guys in their late 20's-30s u know?
So, in scrimmage games, try these guys out see who fits our scheme and whoever doesn't won't be here start of next season.
The point is, your team might surpass me during the rebuilding stage.best of luck to you next season, im sure ill run into your team again lol.

P.S. sorry for how long this got

Holy bleep, we win!!
All week ive been trying to figure out where to play these guys. Having only six, players to pick from made it awful tough. My biggest concern was bart in the starting lineup and could he hold up against Bombers get C

Lol what the heck. Well good luck in the championship!
