With fouls yeah, some guys are more aggressive than others or just sloppy defenders, especially prolific scorers. But team fouling happens very randomly, dont know the exact factors, in some cases one team shoots 30+ ft and the other only a couple and vice versa, dont know what the biggest contributors are in those cases with the same tactics especially. Dont think its just player A has better shooters and provoke fouls.

A couple of stats about my belgian team in B3 this season:

- In first round : 134 vs 98 fouls => 19.1 vs 14.0 fouls/game

- In the last 4 games, one of my 3 big men has played less than 10 minutes because to an injury. 2 times Guillaume, 1 time de Groote and 1 time Seminck.


About the fouls it's the same in PL, League, NT,... So it's not random, all the current belgian generation are butchers, I can't do nothing against that (and there's still people who think there's no problem with the fouls in the GE). In average I start a game with a deficit of 10 points! About the injuries I don't know what to think; it's weird

Yeah, people like me. Fouls are perfectly fine after the tinkering the BBs did some time ago. It's the managers' problem to buy players who are so prone to foul. My question is: why do you buy those players if you know what happens with fouls? I understand that it is because they are Belgian but you assume that you'll have this problem forever and that it is the price to pay.

I fxxxded up with Saturdays game, because I want to gave up, but was on holidays and totally forgot

We've all been there. Who knows, perhaps the two of you throw the game and the one who puts less shitty players on the court will win.

...and that mistake ends today, where I cant do anything with my bad GS (all 7, almost as in 1st week of game) against all 9 GS Pineiro. Congrats for him and waiting for next Cup.

Tough week mate. Also with the loss in BBM. But the competition here and in BBM and B3 is so tough that one can mess up a whole season just with a tiny mistake one day. This is BB and sport in general!!

But yeah, you beat Mloty today with your first team, so not a very bad week overall

First game with motion was strange, team stats were great, but foul discrepancy was weird playing the same tactics, also lack of enthusiasm killed me. Against DLR 3 players got exhausted because of early injury, think I couldve won that. B3 probably ends next week, will have to sell a player to avoid bankruptcy

I think you can just sell all of them and make everyone live more relaxed in Heaven...

I want to try and get silver at least, is that too much to ask for

Mate, I'm very happy that you think that aggressive players are not well designed. Just please respect that others think they are absolutely fine the way they are.

It's just bad luck that a whole generation of Belgian players is aggressive. Of course, this is more problematic for smaller countries as you have less players to choose from. But of course, you have other choices, such as only having 2-3 Belgian players surrounded by 3-4 foreigners with low salary, which is a formula that many top teams go for. If you wanna have 6-7 Belgian players because you like supporting your NT, you obviously need to buy all Belgian players of that age regardless of their aggressiveness.

In my opinion, aggressiveness is a good way of imitating certain features of real-life players that BB does not take into account, such as how nervous they get on court, how prone they are to get crazy in tense situations (imagine Draymond Green for example)... The fact that we don't know whether 18yo players will be aggressive or not equals not knowing whether they will be anxious or problematic. So some degree of uncertainty on this is magnificent for me. If it is not for you, I'd never say "and are still managers who think that aggressiveness is fine!". As simple as that.

Really unfortunate, mate. Keep your head up, you've done a great B3.
