There are already ways to scout the other team without making it too obvious. Whose the best player on a team? Look at the season stats, sort roster by salary, DMI, etc. What sort of offense and defense does a team run? Look at their previous games. Maybe a support can be able to see the off/def on the list of games instead of having to check each game individually, but it's not so hard to check each game and look for a pattern.

I think extended stats are a nice addition for supporters however they may appear, but the ability to scout often times means the difference between a win and a loss. I can't tell you how many times I wonder why other teams don't assume I'm scouting them and that I can set my off/def just right when they haven't changed theirs all season. In short, I think the ability to scout other teams should be virtually the same for supporters and non-supporters. The only types of chances that I'd see as good ones might be time-saving features, like having stats and scouting data more easily accessible in just a few button clicks instead of several clicks.

Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!

its like this

i want buzzerbeater to make more money! now same as you i really scout my opponents from top to bottom.

why because i dont have the talent to go against them just by clashing it with them, imagine a salary of 11k going against 27k

so i know my hard work, but since paying is like a premium why not give also this to the players who pay supporter.

Well, speaking as a Supporter (who will likely be renewing for a year very shortly), I like features that enhance my experience with the game, which mostly have to do with how I interface with the website and how involved I can feel playing the game. I am not a Supporter because I want to have a tactical advantage over non-Supporters. That's not why most people become Supporters, I suppose. Adding convenience to what I already do on this site is good. Giving me access to information that non-Supporters don't have would cheapen my successes, which I don't want. That's my main point.

I think the game is worthy of support with the way it plays now and with the way that I see the developers are dedicated to making improvements. I assume that this website will be even better a year from now.

[I'll say even more wonderful things about this website if it will get me a "Supporter Discount"!] ;-)

I think that these scout reports could be here just for some infos which you can get normally by few more clicks - even actual form of a team you see on a schedule page or on conference report.. you can filter best players by "roster" and "salary" etc.

It is only about that you don't need to click so much and scouting reports can be done by a fun way, not only briefness informations - that's the way I would like to see that in here

my idea is your here to manage a team,but for those who dont know yet this could help a lot
