Your BuzzerBeater teams and objectives ?

Hi guys,

What about your teams on BuzzerBeater ? What are you aiming this season or the following ones ? I'm planning to build a competitive team to win the League II.1 Play-Offs. I don't really want to be promoted if I don't win the title. I'm #N23 after all, huh F-Rat !

Former USA NBBA Champion in League III ? He must have it hard ! How come can't he 'assume' his status anymore ?

@TmpG
Who knows !? With the new draft system you could except drafting a 'franchise player' (not talking about the BB potential here lol) that may set up a new deal !
Why are you waiting for the expansion of your arena to hope competing for the title ?

@SpF
Yeah, nice history lesson !
Even though competition got tougher and tougher, I still don't get why he felt so down after being a champion . League III man ... It reminds me of a French soccer team that almost had to play in League IV after evolving in League I and competing in European cups : Strasbourg. But they have a good reason to explain their 'collapse' ... They were manage by some idiots ! HaHaHa. Hope Demon Hoosiers's manager is not an idiot !

Anyways, I'm competing against the more-than-favorite franchise for this season Play-Offs final in League II.1 - Prathet Thai. He is undefeated ... a real monster.

@TmpG
But you're not waiting for the expansion to be complete before competing for the title ... are you ?

As for the Byakko Kingdom, we've lost our battle Leader Vs. Leader yesterday. It was kind of harsh, especially that the game ended by more than 20 points for our opponent (92 - 113). The positive aspects are that we played out of base & that we took it easy and they didn't. We're still leader of the Great 8 conference thanks to our point average. I'm gonna take it easy all my remaining games until the Play-Offs ... Otherwise, we'll have no chances in the Finals.

Hey Ralex, welcome here !
Yep, maybe this year is for you. But you know, when the Play-Offs series begins, it's like a new starts, it's like you start all from scratch : excepted your enthusiasm and the home court advantage.

@SpF
My bad ! Are you going to buy a new guard or something ?

Nice for your center . But you know that weekly salary for inside players are higher than outside players, but it doesn't mean that they'll produce better performances. When I looked closely on the transfer market, I realized that finding inside players with good skills cost cheaper than outside ones ...
I think I'll focus on outside players for the upcoming seasons. No matter if it's for training or selling, I think it's worth trying.

I plan to have at least an enthusiasm close to 12. Otherwise, Hover Breave will just eat me ! I think I'll take all my following matches easy. There is no real competition in my conference =). But the thing is that if I get promoted because of the bot cleaning thing, I will get no pleasure competing in League I.1. Especially when seeing the gap of level between the 2 leagues.

Hi Smallfrie,

Welcome on this forum ! How old is Jay Martinez ? What is his potential ? You want to make him a guard ? Be careful on his secondary stats. The more players are balanced the best it is .

As for me, I got 2 pops on a player, and 1 for two players this week. They've trained very well !

Starter potential ? Did you know that his pops/progression will be limited when he'll reach around 34 370 < 49 100 $ salary? That is to say that he is a very limited player. You must focus his training on the stats you wish for him to have. Otherwise you'll have an unbalanced player.

I saw that at your level, he was a good scorer. But he only has an average of 8.5 rating. His primaries stats or good. But what about his secondaries ? Would you mind telling me those ? Then I'll be able to give you a good advice for the future.

If you want to win the Play-Offs, you should take two main aspects into account: Enthusiasm and Home Court Advantage ! Otherwise, you'll increase your chances to loose. I had mistaken last season, and ignored those aspects. Once a played a non-bot, I took it hard ! Very Very Hard ! LOL.

For a SG, secondaries stats would be especially: Passing & Rebounding. You can even add Inside Shot. According to the Game Manual, Shooting Guard priorities are:
Primaries
#1: Jump Shot / Jump Range / Outside Defense / Handling / Driving
Secondaries
#2: Rebounding / Passing
#3: Inside Shot

So my advice is to up:
Passing to at least Respectable
Rebounding to at least Respectable
Inside Shot to at least average

Then focus on his primaries with Jump Shot & Outside Defense as your priorities.
If you play: Run & Gun - Push the Ball - Look Inside and Defend: Full Court Press and plan to line him in your starting five you really need to up his stamina to at least Respectable. Or for a back up Mediocre/Average.

The thing is ... that the game evolves constantly. Look at BC Torööö. He won B3 tournament few times in a row. But when the BBs decided to change the format of the competition, he immediately lost his crown. Same things goes for National Championship. You can built a strong team and then next season loose all your bases because of an improvement made by the developers. The best advice is to have the most balance player as you can. Buy cheap young players. Have 3 slots for your training program. Keep the first one as a starter, the second as a back up and sell the third. & that means train single position.

The Play-Offs are coming. Who will be able to qualify to compete for the title? I think I have a good card to play !
