JB makes little difference for me :0, and I do not have much chance for next game because of game shape.
But the HCA sucks, I could beat over 80% top 20 teams with it, and could not beat over 80% of them if the HCA goes to the opponent side.
PS, I would give a predication of 16-0 for the home teams if there is HCA for the upcoming B3 round

If it's neutral-site I would bet it's 70-30% for Dionysus.

You are wrong, there is no HCA advantage any longer :-) HCA is just at Group Play. All the matches of Knock Out Tournament are going to be played at neutral court.

Bug or feature?
Now has passed the deadline for B3 transfers. Almost all players at TL has "This player will not be eligible to play in this season's BuzzerBeater's Best knockout games." on his page except for free agents (and I'm not sure about players listed on bacrupcy rule as it's not so easy to find them quickly).
Can you confirm that these players can't be used for B3 games as well? And it would be nice if they has "This player will not be eligible to play in this season's BuzzerBeater's Best knockout games." on his page as well. It's not only about current free agents, but about all free agents till the end of B3.

Now has passed deadline for B3 playoff. This is a summary of wage bills in Round 1 matches:

Flumpaci ($ 789 827) vs. PersianGulf ($ 919 606)
Lake Merritt Arrows ($ 855 529) vs. ribonucleic acid ($ 841 045)

WKS Lakers ($ 860 022) vs. Similis ($ 790 034)
Asingratitos BC ($ 843 430) vs. Croatian Sensation ($ 866 247)

Mighty Avengers ($ 740 499) vs. KK Dumbarajko ($ 733 292)
Secret Agents ($ 818 252) vs. FC Tenakha ($ 728 643)

CB Rabadense ($ 759 860) vs. Laachi ($ 783 868)

MuGiWaRaIcHiMi ($ 749 522) vs. king of monoi ($ 1 042 364)

Edit: Lake Merritt Arrows sold one player, so I correct his wage bill. And some other team can follow him as Laachi and MuGiWaRaIcHiMi have each od them 2 players on TL. Some other teams has young trainess with wage below 10k on TL as well.

WOWWWW
I'm wonder, how much he will survive with such salaries?

We will see, I'm at the moment -345k per week (without cup and B3 pricemoney), but I'm able to survive till the B3 final. He is out of cup, so he could be -550k per week without B3 bonuses (if he has higher TV bonuses, merchandise and lower staff wages). I expect he is going to sell any bench player if he is still in and get into the trouble with finances.

Surely, salary is not all even without injuries. The summary was just for info and little bit of fun.

Thys has very high respectable (almost strong), so I don't see such a big problem with your game shape. Your game is still open, also injury or fouling out of some player on one or another side can be key factor.
