Hi everyone. I am PurongPinoy, a single-season team manager here at Buzzerbeater.org. Eventhough I'm new here at BuzzerBeater.org, managing a virtual team in an on-line basketball community is not new to me. I consider myself a veteran manager in the competitor league basketsim.com and cyberdunk.com. I also had a short stint at the NBA Live 08 on-line league called ASALIVE.NET wherein I am the first Filipino GM to have ever been accepted.
Eventhough I have acquired a relatively weak lineup, I was able to steer my team to a 4th place finish in Division II.1 and is currently a finalist in the on-going FIRST JOSE RIZAL CUP opposite JUBAS BEASTS. My team had trounced Philippine BB powerhouses such as TEAM POLYDOZEL and TGIF MANILA.
My love for the game is unquestionable. I try to build a team that is centered on versatility and teamwork. I don't believe in having one focal player in a team, rather, I believe that a team wherein all players know their roles is what brings home the championships.
I plan to have at least 5 co-managers for the team in the event that I win. We would call it the MANAGER'S TEAM. Each manager would have voting rights for every major decision that the team would make such as roster composition, scrimmage schedules, game time lineups and trainings. Each manager would have 1 voting right while as the head manager if I win, I will be having 2 voting rights without the right to vetoe any decision that the whole team had voted. With this system, I expect to build a team that is based on a consensus of all dedicated and committed managers in the Philippine BB community.
A vote for me is a vote for your country.
