Hashmat Gnanam has both some + and some - factors.

+ On the team so good for revenue.
+ could make the national senior team too.
+ 5'10" so will train super fast.
- all star potential so will cap out fairly soon.

However all-star is not that bad. A well trained all-star can really be effective at high levels and I am sure in the IPL they could even be starters on top teams.

Yeah the negative side is that his potential is all star...if it was 1 potential higher or more, it would have been much much better.
Adam is thinking of buying Hashmat, but if he decides not to, I'll try to buy him.

Ok time to save some players from bottification again. First I sadly note that the team's enthusiasm is still 4. Incredible! Nearly two weeks and still not back up to 4.5. Wow!

II.1 29/3 The Radiants
B 4k 18 pallstar Girijapati Kannan - seems good. Adam already wants to mentor him as a SF.

II.4 3/4 silencrs
E 3k 18 star Bhraja Ramachandran - not good enough.

Girijapati Kannan (20670105)
Adam
Power Forward
Owner: The Radiants
Weekly salary: $ 3 820
Age: 18
Height: 6'7" / 201 cm
Potential: perennial allstar
Game Shape: respectable
Jump Shot: average Jump Range: average
Outside Def.: pitiful Handling: inept
Driving: respectable Passing: mediocre
Inside Shot: respectable Inside Def.: respectable
Rebounding: awful Shot Blocking: inept
Stamina: inept Free Throw: awful Experience: atrocious

That OD is painful but this is the only guy worth saving this week. Next week will be different with about 10 teams going bot. What does everyone think? Worth saving?

Game Report

5/10/2011 National Team Scrimmage

India U21 vs Misr Senior Team

Bizarre how this happened but it happened. The good thing is it was just a scrimmage and so doesn't matter. We tried an interesting tactic that apparenty the USA NT uses. Added 12 players but gave no-one a position and chose "let coach decide." We were thrashed as expected but this is what the coach decided.

Starters
Pos/Name/Mins
PG D. Kumar 30
SG A. Ghosh 31
SF H. Firosh 38
PF S. Ishtaq 35
C V. Dey 30
Bench
SG A. Peppin 27
C F. Ishtaq 19
C D. Vikesh 13
PG H. Gnanam 12
PG M. Singh 4

Funny that is the exact same starting lineup we set vs Saudi Arabia so the coach agrees with us. Looks like we are doing something right!

Yeah this player looks alright. Through 1 position training with 48+ minutes every weeek, he'll eventually make a good SF for U-21 NT India.

So the good thing is that the coach agrees with us....
something surprised me...stastically hashmant is our best player on paper but the coach chose kumar over him to play at PG....the coach did consider game shape..........interesting.....
about the player i would say that this player is respectably good to be saved but this constant flickering of players is really damaging the enthusiasm of the team....so i would suggest you to decide 3-4 best players to be saved in the coming few weeks rather than saving 1 or 2 players every week.....this might help the enthusiasm to come back
what do u think????????????

Adding players has no effect on enthusiasm. Only dropping them. I have only dropped one player the whole season and wont be doing that again unless we decide to pull the pin at some stage. So adding 1 or 2 players from time to time is fine. All the big nations like China, Phillipines and Australia also do this but much less than we do.

And the good news, enthusiasm from that one dropped player is finally back to 5 today. Wow. We dropped one guy and it took 11 days to get back to 5 enthusiasm. It does move very slowly for NTs.

Sounds like two votes for saving him so save him I will.

In other news there were 4 sales from our team.
Hashmat Gnanam is still on sale but the bid is up to $1,500,000.
Kevin Davies is still on sale and is a bargain for an 18 year old superstar the bid is only$50,000 and a few hours to go.
Janki-Nathan Singh our 18 year old MVP was sold for $443,800 to China which may be good news. They have some super training farm teams over there and I hope he is on one of them.
Abdus Kadiran 18 year old pallstar was sold for a very low $99,000.


Once the sales are finished I will contact all the new managers.
