Hello guys, im in 7th place in my league (started 3 weeks ago) and will play agaisnt the 3rd place team today.
This is my team http://www.buzzerbeater.com/team/39142/players.aspx and this is the team im up against http://www.buzzerbeater.com/team/101459/players.aspx.
I know im not likely to be the winner, but i must ask, considering he plays patience, and his SG scores most of his points (his outside offence is always better than his inside offence), and he always defends 3-2, i can play low post and defend 3-2, and kind of get an advantage there. Also, my best player is a Center ($19k) and neither of his inside players are too good (only around $8k-$9k). I also believe he played "crunch time" last game, so his enthusiasm wont be high, and he will probably play normal with me. I have no problem with playing crunch time, because my next game, although against a player that is 5th on my league, seems harder to win, so ill take it easy, and the game after that i can probably win taking it easy again.
The thing is, i must choose to either try and win this game (which doesnt bring anything new to me, my placing on my league is settled, but a win is always good, and a win against the 181 guy in my country, with me being the 284 would be really good) or i could kind of give up on this game (if there is no way for me to win), bench this 19k center and let my younger players play, which would mean all my young players would get 48 mins this week and get a good training.
Can i get your opinions? should i try to win this game or go for a better training?
im very open to suggestions
thank you
