Well... processing's begun. Teams/rosters - not yet, but the draft's done... and yet again mine was completely SUCKTASTIC!
- 1 guy, 6th man potential, with less than $2k salary. Fired.
- Next two, one guy with "star" potential, and the other with "starter potential" (but very nice starting skills for a SG) - both for sale, cheap (1k a piece).

Gods... I'd almost kill for a good draft! Has been a waste of goddamn time for me thus far (3 drafts, all particularly awful)...

And there we go!

Welcome to sasimi who joins the Big 8... all the best. I think SF's the clear leader at the moment in II.1, and the balance of power has definitely shifted to the Great 8. Should be an interesting season...

Having a look at who promoted to JBBL, it's a bit of a joke. I really feel for SF. I mean... BBstAr? He wouldn't make the playoffs in II.1. And 血受儿's even worse. And Kanazawa looks to be in danger of going bot.

And the schedule's in.

Must see games of Rd 1:
aisteru @ Baikinman - will the new big help him match it up?
Otaku @ Kyoto - rematch of last season's semi-final.

Me? TV game in bot Chigusa's house.

It is very unfair that as you say pathetic teams that wouldn't make the playoffs in II.1 get promoted in the other leagues. But it is the way it has always been and nothing we can do about it.

Not so nice for me to start the season taking on probably the best or 2nd best team in the whole league first, but I must face him some time.

Some teams got great players in the draft, HoF guy at #2, we like our guy:

Masateru Otake (21305587) Point Guard Weekly salary: $ 4 530 Age: 18 Height: 6'3" / 190 cm Potential: allstar

He may well replace Kobe in our training rotation.

Best news is not just Daisaku Kawaida made the U21 team but also Noritada Konoe who is only 20 and will be brilliant next season!

Congrats on that. My trainee center made the squad too... for a minute or so whilst he was "scouted".
That... was confusing. And a bit disappointing.


Not as disappointing as the draft tho'. 3 drafts now, and everyone has been sucktastic - even when I had the #1 pick. Screw the draft. I don't think I'm ever going to get anything even moderately useful... let alone "good".

I didn't spend in the Draft, because i thought that i could promote...Therefore, My draft was a garbage. Sometimes this game is so unfair... We cannot do anything...

mikelm, given where you finished, your draft would have been garbage anyway. I did spend (tho' not a lot), and mine was awful.
Go through the draft - have a look what you *might* have gotten. It's slim pickings.

I know about bot sweep ups missing you.

(http://www.buzzerbeater.com/league/1963/overview.aspx?sea...)

Stunners and HL both got to move up ahead of me. That meant i spent the next season in div II.1.

But two things.

1) its no "honor" to go up to the JBBL for one season than spend the next one right back in the div II

and

2) winning the league is an automatic qualifier.

Win and get in.

Somebody let me a hold a no. 2 pencil cause they testin' me.

Yup. As YC is fond of saying "BB's a marathon, not a sprint."
