Thanks!

Unfourtnally my own journey will end next week against you, but I am hoping that I will win todays cupfinal in Sweden and will have another shot next season, but will be a rough game. I guess I am in for the same road that San Felipe has been taking, with 5 very promising 25/26 year olds in training, and will complement them with a stronger roster in a few seasons that makes me a more competitive team even outside of Sweden. Hopefully they made some changes to the competition to make it a fair competition.

Facts about the first phase:

Offensive Strategy:
Look Inside: 26
Motion: 2 (both team lost)
Run & Gun: 1 (lost)
Low Post: 3 (2/3 lost)


Nice research but that is just depressing. The 32 best teams in the world are compeing. 26/32 decide to go with just one strategy out of the ten available. Six try something other than look inside and all but one of them lose. Wow that is horrible.

JR and SB changes have changed nothing, maybe the GDP will do something to change this.

Fun Fact: Since the current format started in Season 15, there has only been one team to win the B3 after finishing the Group Play with a loss. Season 21's Sant Mateu.
They actually beat Broken Roses, a team who lost 2 games in the group play, but BR had also, interestingly enough, been the team that handed Sant Mateu their loss.

I would also say that many of those who played LI also lost. The Motion and RaG were probably an "alleluia pass" and hope for the best.


32 teams, 16 games played, 5of 6 lost by not a LI teams and 11of 26 lost by LI teams

Sure 5/6 and 11/26 no big difference. Non li tactics just doubles ur chances to lose game. 83 percent compared to 42.

From 32 top teams on the world, 29 played inside tactic (26 LI) and 3 outside tactic and they lost.

It's not about that the changes are unsuccessful or not, the GE still work on the same way where the look inside tactic is dominant.
Now they will make some changes where you must guess some focuses or etc, its not lotto, its BB.

Now its possible that in the next round of B3 all teams use inside tactics, that's the reality.

This is where we hold them!

I dont think the change came from changes in game engine. People were still training the same way after the GE, more passing but still tons of jumpshot (even in PF) and outside tactics, monoskilled centers and so on.

It was the salary formula, when able to play with different builds people realised that inside tactis were cheaper.

So you are actually surprised that changes made a season ago, mostly on salary (and a bit GE for SB) didn't already appear on well trained players well over 100k of salary ?


They've had half a season to train those players. Surely that's sufficient time to get players with JR and SB, right? ;)

As suspected, my journey ended brutally against you. I tried something different and played a 3-2 even though I knew you would play inside, to see if I could stop your guards deliver those passes. It didnt work at all, but neither would a M2M have done.

I am proud to be in the top-16 with my rooster that arent at all ready, and with the lowest salary in the playoff's, with no player over 100k, your NT players totally smashed me back to stoneage ;)

Good luck to all remaining contenders
