The problem here isn't that people don't want to win the Cup. The problem is it might not be financially smart to do well on the Cup.
I would love to win it, and I would even lose some money to do so, but I won't lose THAT much money to win it.
Yes, 'cause right now I would lose money to do well in the Cup. If I won it I would grab an extra 650k, but I would have to suck in the league and lose fans for the next season. Plus, given the 40% cut, I have now a margin of less than 30k weekly profit if I get full arena every game. Not doing well on the league is not an option for me, it's a necessity. Losing the Cup, therefore, is a necessity for me (well, not losing, but not fielding my best players in it, which will ultimately lead into a loss anyway).
It wouldn't at all be a good idea to trade my arena income for cup money. I would go bankrupt for sure.

this is basketball game not some money game, this games goal is to win. every one worry about their income.
trade players, train players, be smart manager (smarter than me of course :D).
this is like disease, one scream about money, and others too start to worry about money instead of playing game.

Believe me or not - you won't win without the money. Nor here, nor in real, professional basketball ;)
But yes, we have to do our best, to win. And because everyone will have less money, there is a chance :)

i dont say that without money can play very good. but so many people put money before the game. if they loose, they say they lost because of low money income, but only few say they lost because they train wrong skills/positions and bad tactics.
in first 2 seasons i bought 4 players for low money, but i was dumb in training (and sometimes without thinking put tactics and players) and now in 2 seasons i am down from LBBL to III league.
i dont blame money, i blame myself.
train players, if some player dont fit in your roster, sell him and buy player with skills that fits in. everyone wants to buy perfect player or player who is greater than opponents players. and this is why almoust everyone blame low income.

as much as i want to stay positive on this matter,

i just feel that it totally sucks! because first and foremost to add competitive players on your team probably 1-2 wouldnt just cost you 650k and probably you add the bb3 money into doesnt compensate at all.

as i said, we will try to take this season on! with the changes and challenges.

Absolutely impossible to be a consitent team without money.
You could win a Cup if you went all in and forgot about the league. That's fine, you would have a Cup, but the next season you wouldn't be able to win it again because you made no money ;) (fortunately this will change now, with the new attendance formula)

It's not about the money, you know, it's about being able to compete at the top level for seasons and seasons, not for a season or two, and for that you need to plan your financial part very carefully, overwise you might do well for a season and two and then fail to keep up with all those well-organized teams.

I think you will change idea next season when you will realize that the new economic system is too penalizing: it was important to block the inflation of prices, but with this changes you will ruin the transfer market and the interest for some competitions, such as the national tournament..how can I buy 3-4 other players in order to play the Italy Cup (and lose some matches of the division, losing audience for the next match ) if this Cup don't let me earn enough money to pay their salaries?
