As long as he doesn't get to be like the guy on Cordast 76'rs with the $350,000 salary.

Crap....Hashmat Firosh is injured for 2 weeks :S My training plan is screwed.... :S

Bad news, but trust me I know how you feel. I lost my PG for two weeks, then my C for three weeks, while he was still out I lost my SF for two weeks and now before he is back I have lost my PF for four weeks. What a disaster this entire season has been ruined by injuries. Last season I was on top of the ladder, this season I will probably be 3rd or 4th.

It hurts the U21 team a lot too as he is in reality 1/7 of the entire team, however he is easier to replace than Gnanam, Dey or Ishtaq seeing as he and Peppin, Ghosh and Kumar all fill a similar role, the SG/SF is the only spot where we have depth. But he is both our best shooter and our best defencer so we will miss him a lot. Good news for Al Maghrib tomorrow night.

One other thing these scrimmages do count for ranking but they don't count for NT games player on the player's record. For example I played Kumar last week but he still says that he has played 0 competitive NT games. It is a pity, we get so few real games in a season and then just a ton of scrimmages. Hopefully next season we will have more "real" games - although the team for next season is looking pathetic.

Farooq Ishtaq is ok, maybe Ghanya Tanwar and Bhimasankara Victor Jaya are ok, but all are big men. There are some decent 19 year olds who may be ok if they were trained well this season in Shipirist Rath, Maheya Kanwar and Dhritiman Vikesh. Overall things look even worse for next season than they did this season. It is still the season after that I am looking forward to with great excitement.

Report on our list of inactive but not botted teams.

We will be looking for teams that were last active from about the 9/5 to the 15/5 for saving.

Active Teams: 56 -> 66 this week. Up ten! Big increase.

I double checked all teams to make sure they hadn't logged in during the last week.

IPL
10/5 shehanas team
11/5 the vipers

II.1
12/5 pakdons
14/5 Puneri

II.2
13/5 5nesai
13/5 heatlakers

II.3
15/5 dragonfable
15/5 kartob (still top of the Great 8)


II.4
Two real human teams now.

So 8 teams going bot this week and just 4 spots left on the team for the rest of the season. We will have to be selective.

IPL
10/5 shehanas team no-one.
11/5 the vipers 2 good 18 year olds but one starter potential and the other 6th man, no-one will really train them.

II.1
12/5 pakdons Aavudainayagam Joshi 19 5k HoF someone will love the potential
14/5 Puneri Bhima Dalal 7k 19 starter - pity about the potential and age

II.2
13/5 5nesai Aanand Chinnakali 18 6'0" 4k ss - looks good to save
13/5 heatlakers noone

II.3
15/5 dragonfable noone
15/5 kartob (still top of the Great 8) Dheeraj Kumar Das 4k 18 starter - nope

So it looks like two guys this week Joshi and Aanand.

There are some decent 19 year olds who may be ok if they were trained well this season in Shipirist Rath, Maheya Kanwar and Dhritiman Vikesh.

You're always forgetting about Kaliranjan! He'll be ready to start at SF for the team next season

thats really bad both for ur team as well as the NT.....injuries really screw the training plans...hope he comes back before 2 weeks so that he may have a chance to play in 1 game before playoffs and that might help in his GS...

What I hate the most is that he's my main trainee...but oh well...such is life.

Don't forget Mahendravarman Singh too. He still sucks but probably good enough to be in the team.

Kaliranjan and Singh have salaries of $5,000 and $6,000 this season so I don't really see them dominating against $25,000-$50,000 players next season, however they may both be amongst the best we do have.

Here are the two guys I have saved.

Aavudainayagam Joshi (21703166)
Shooting Guard
Owner: pakdons
Weekly salary: $ 4 690
Age: 19
Height: 6'5" / 196 cm
Potential: hall of famer
Jump Shot: average Jump Range: respectable
Outside Def.: average Handling: atrocious
Driving: average Passing: inept
Inside Shot: mediocre Inside Def.: pitiful
Rebounding: inept Shot Blocking: average
Stamina: atrocious Free Throw: strong Experience: atrocious

Aanand Chinnakali (21712405)
Shooting Guard
Owner: 5nesai
Weekly salary: $ 3 884
Age: 18
Height: 6'0" / 183 cm
Potential: superstar
Jump Shot: respectable Jump Range: average
Outside Def.: average Handling: inept
Driving: average Passing: inept
Inside Shot: average Inside Def.: atrocious
Rebounding: atrocious Shot Blocking: awful
Stamina: mediocre Free Throw: respectable Experience: atrocious

Hope they both find a good home!

We are missing our big star for tomorrow.

So my choices are a little limited. Obviously our big 6 will be starring with Diganta hopefully backing up a bit. I have also added a bunch of the rookies just in case however they don't gain much from this I believe. So the team is set against the mighty Al Maghrib who should be a lot scarier but they have their own issues with their second best player just back from injury and in awful GS.
