4. Kriflonius - 753k

A team that has probably reached his maximum, Krifl has now to decide if he continues like that and then he will have no difficulty to survive in BBBL, or if it's better to rebuild again to be stronger later. But maybe both goals are not incompatible...


I've decided to list Seminck on the TL now that he's still worth something. I have great players, but not the financials to add others to go for trophies.
When Veldemans' training is finished, he'll be on the TL as well. Demoting is not planned for the next 2 seasons, so I will still try to have a competitive line-up.

It was a difficult decision to initiate changes in my line-up since Seminck has been on my team for almost 3 years.

Best of luck to everyone this seasons and don't forget to have fun!

Thanks Joe! It took indeed awhile for me to get here. I was so comfortable II.3 that I forgot there was still a BBBL to get to :). At first I was a bit overwhelmed by the amount of talent in here. But slowly I'm starting to see what I could do to compete.
My goal: look and learn, earn dollars and try to survive for a second season!

Thank you for very much for your nice introduction again to the upcoming season Joe

It's always interesting to read what the best Belgian BB manager thinks will happen in the season to come.

I alsmot fully agree with your predictions, although i'm not 100% sure i can already reach the 3rd spot this season. But if i do, I would consider that a success. Because my 2 trainees - although already getting nicely skilled - are not at their maximum potential yet, and i also have to consider looking for replacements for some older players.

I wish everybody a successful coming season mates

grtz,
eagle.

After checking the results of the first games of the season, there is one thing that stands out to me.
Of all 16 teams, there were only 2 teams that chose for an "inside" tactic.
And those 2 teams both lost their game.

In my opinion this is a big game changer for Buzzerbeater in general, because in the past choosing an "inside" tactic was practically the standard norm in the game, because at that time it was known that you had an advantage with that tactic. Big props for the Buzzerbeater developers for this, for working on this during the past seasons, and balancing out all tactics, so that there is no more advantage to choosing a particular tactic.

grtz,
Eagle.

5. Union Liège - 814k

Liège is currently the second most expensive roster of the conference but last season MB13 has tried to train 3 young players what costed him a lot of wins... But that didn't prevent him to stay in BBBL! I expect the same kind of season for him, for the same result at the end.



Thanks Joe. Indeed I will keep training those 3 young guys and it will definitely cost me wins this season as well. The goal is to stay in BBBL.


Do you know if there is a forum to discuss the following issue?

Last week, I played the 3rd game of play-down on Tuesday. So only half ticket revenue but still pay the full salary.
This week, I played away on Saturday. So no ticket revenue and full salary.

So, in two weeks that's only half ticket revenue (277k) vs 2 full salary (1564k).

I know there is merchandising and TV to partially offset this gap. But why do we pay full salary on play-down as we only play on Tuesday?

There's nothing new there, it has always been like that, that's why it's better to win in 2 games. The teams that lose their first PO games are in the same situation: full salary for only one game. It's not an issue ;)


I agree, it is the rule for a long time. The last time I faced this rule is in season 40 (2017) and the last time i played a 3rd game without the home game in the next season is in season 18 (2012).

For the teams that lose their 1st PO game, they can recovered with the next week in which they don't pay any player.


In my case, I was in positive before the PO. But now, I might have all my players on sale in 2 weeks at 0 because of this rule. My net revenue is positive but not enough to compensate this gap and the interest created by this gap.

Keeping a positive cash flow has certainly gotten more difficult during the years...
And if you have some bad luck with the economy and the timing of certain games, you could end up in a difficult financial situation unfortunately
