yes to start, I think 8,900~10k is more realistic as well, also check my last game. I beat LI with 2-3 zone and pait. He didn't expect that. neither did I, save this game.

im research it tommarrow

First and foremost...I love this game! I will continue playing it until it exists no longer...although I hope that day never arrives. But because it is increasingly looking a possibility I thought I'd create this thread.

This is a thread for several purposes:

1. To engage users on the topic question
2. Bring the opinions of users to BB's attention
3. Maybe, just maybe, find some avenues for rejuvenating BB

BB once had 60k+ users and is, as of today, less than half of that! I have been playing since Season 14 and have watched a steady downward curve in the number of BB users.


TOPIC QUESTION: Why is BB dying a slow death?



22751 active managers from over 227 countries around the world, playing in BuzzerBeater's 99 countries.

The numbers are still declining and like 40 of those 99 countries have less than 20 managers. We are reaching a point where we have arounf 30% of the peak userbase, thats a huge loss.

My center is what 5k. No gdp ,no gs training has not played this season much. A 74k c vs 5k center. does that matter. 2-3 zone matter is what matter

Same stamina to be exact.

Don't make excuse for him and speak for him when you don't even talk to him or know him. Its rude and shows a form of jealousy. which is team is better. His team is better weather he logs in or not..

The point is 2-3 zone worked. Show me a game you won using 2-3z vs low post /li. You cant. So much for you argument.

Within a few clicks, I was able to find a game where I beat a Princeton offense with a 2-3. I didn't keep looking for others, because that game was against the #1 ranked NBBA team at the time. I'd wager that most of my NBBA wins came while running either motion or Princeton.

People quicker to point out all the bad sides of BB over and over than the good sides, leading other users to think that this game is not worth it.


We know that only a very few managers find their way to the forums, so that would be a very small part of those who left.

Considering that many very succesful managers have left and that many who join quit in the first few weeks, I think we all know where the REAL problems are and what should be done.
