Oh man the last time I was in a league with you I'm pretty sure you had a starting lineup that included Lebron, Wade and Bosh. Thankfully you ran out of money right as my team was starting to peak. What are the plans this year?

Crazy to see FresRez again. First played against him in Season 17 when I still had some of my D-V players.

Hey! There are a few of us in here I see.

Yeah, my team during that run was stacked. I had backup players pushing a 140 TSP. After my last NBBA title, I actually had enough money to add another 140+ TSP player or two to my already existing core players; however, those core players were on the wrong side of 30 and after my B3 title run was shot dead I wasn’t about to try and patch up a sinking ship — just for a few more NBBA titles.

As for now, the plan is to get back to the NBBA and eventually compete for more titles. I was floating around the NBBA and got relegated with 5m unspent. I plan continuing to train my three current US prospects and hopefully acquire some cash along the way. How about yourself? Got any plans?

This season should be a dandy.

Also, I need pay my respects to an NT legend and 80’s movie star: Rambo.

I'm a little discouraged taking a home L in the opener, but I'm still hoping to be a contender by the end of the year. No immediate NT prospects but I do have a 28 y/o combo guard with a 123 TSP and high sublevels across the board so I'm thinking he may have a chance to get in NT games starting next season depending on tactics.

GL this season!

At 123 TSP and 28 years of age, in this age of gym/YT’s, his chances may be bleak. To put things into perspective I have a 25 year old SF with 132 TSP and even he is behind the curve as there are players around his age already pushing 140 TSP. We’re in a new era here, folks, and it may be in your best interest to train youth now more then ever. You never know though, your player may provide depth for the NT.

GL with training and getting back to the NBBA (join the party)! It looks like it’ll be a grind this season. Very solid competition.

I ran a couple scrimmages at the end of last season using just U-29 guys, U-30 now. I’m sorry but your guy wasn’t in contention as 134 TSP was the lowest for guards that I used. The reality is that NT guards are closer to 140+, and SFs definitely are.

I once had a team with 1757 players and was $25,835,360 in debt. This is not that team. Join the Discord group open to anyone, but especially for USA managers to improve your club or get involved with the U21 and NT programs (https://discord.gg/cKpNkt2).

Shows how much I've kept up with NT rosters recently. I guess I'm still thinking of the last time I had a NT player, probably 7-8 seasons ago as Vaughan's current skill set would have put him in the running for a roster spot.

Thanks for the heads up, glad I don't have to stress about that in all likelihood.

Good to see you Cacti!

Looks like I got hosed tonight by the match engine. Ouch. I can't lose games I should win, if I want to stay up in this league.

Apparently a prominent inside attack against a strong defense will only net you 80 points.....sheesh.....

I can't really argue that I got hosed tonight, but similarly thought I had set the correct tactics... neutral instead of outside and a correct GDP prediction still led to a weak offensive output. I think a combination of less effort on the road and just not having the talent that I need to get away with those type of disadvantages made it too tough to win.
