Meanwhile, in Arizona... the Cacti are beefing up their team. Just in time before our teams meet, too. Darn.

i'm playing an opponent tonight with an interesting player who, because he has been laboring in the obscurity of a BB-bot tank town, has never had the fame he deserves: Clayton Hickey.

43 years old.
been around since season 10.
$4700 salary.
MVP of V.238 in season 23.
in all meaningful games, league, Cup, playoffs, and relegation, 10,196 pts. (17.5 ppg)
45% shooter, 36% 3 pt
3.5 rebounds, 7 assists -- for his entire career.

he got some training early (going from 3.7 to 6.5 in five seasons) and has stayed at that level since.

and that's what intrigues me -- he has not declined since season 24 or 25, when he should have been moving into his twilight years. he's hit 20 ppg a couple of times, hit 40%+ from 3 pt land, 8 assists or more a game consistently, as well as maintaining a consistent GR. what is truly weird is that his DMI is higher than any of my starters for tonight.

i hope the bot coach finds another PG starter from among his 54 players.

You went in depth to scout a D-V bot team, more than I am even willing to scout league games. This is what I feared most about the NBBA.

Thought this was interesting from Tuesday nights game, Golden Horde V. The King and I. Both teams ran LI, however, different positions dominated possession of the ball.

Golden Horde: SF J. Akers 8 - 22 (22 attempts in 38mins!)
King and I: PF G. Acker 10 - 21 (43mins)

I know Gary Acker has the best IS on his team. Not sure about J.Akers, however. I wonder if the GE takes advantage of certain match ups, feeding the ball more to the player with the best opportunity to score.

Tonight is one of those games that remind me why I hate this game.

Injuries happen...I get that....but why in the world would the coach choose to bring in a Center to play PG when there are two guards sitting on the bench to choose from? ugh!

i can't believe how rough the Great 8 is --

anyway, so far, the home team has won every game -- although tonight the home team had to use extra enthusiasm to win in a couple of the games. to date, the Golden Horde have been in my eyes particularly impressive, and i am grateful for every game TKI, JE, and YCU lose.

this is going to be a rough season.
