I like the free money. It buys more Hoes, for in the Clinic?

Just at a quick glance, your opponent's SF and SG are much better than a typical bot scrub...

But enthusiasm + GDP is all about boosting defense? I'd get if it were a close game due to me not scoring. Instead it was a shoot out & even my sub 5k DMI backup went crazy offensively. (In fact my backup scrub shot much better than that opposing SG you mentioned!)

Both bots we played put up similar inside/outside scoring ratings.
Yet i gave up multiple 30 point quarters, & even got outscored 37-27 in the 3rd. Despite a 3 level advantage in OD, ID, & Reb. Well since you're a GM, thought I'd ask if this has anything to do with the unannounced changes they've made to outside shooting? Or any of the other stuff BB has changed without announcing?

Whoa - the Cantaloupes are one tough team.

I had them under control, and then their shooters started lighting it up, and then they completely shut me down in the 4th.
Ouch. Forced 5 TO's from Kenny Cheek, who I don't think has ever committed that many in a game, ever.

The Elopers are a team to watch. For sure.

That's why no one wanted to draw them in the playoffs last season! Quite possibly would've made the finals had they finished 4th instead of 3rd.

I was perplexed by the Clogs picking up a serious baller, Rodolfo Cirillo, until I went and looked at his player quote.
That made me laugh pretty hard.

Yeah, I've been looking most of the season for a guy at roughly that salary level who had one glaring guard skill hole and was still trainable, since my quest to find 18 year old guys to train for whatever the hell I plan on doing in the future failed, in no small part because I never made up my mind. This guy's pretty nice, too - 9JS, 10 DR and 9 PA, plus 6 JR and HA, 18 in IS and RB and 15 ID... and that nasty 1 OD. So, yeah, I have a trainer now and he'll be playing a ton of PG and turning the ball over a lot.

That sounds like a good plan. Also, with your draft pick this season, you're going to have some high quality youth on your team for future seasons. Your new C is going to be a ridiculous monster in DIII or DIV (if you decide to drop that far).

I fully expect that the best player in the draft will be Brian Scalabrine's less-talented 18 year old cousin.

get yourself some cheap, but malicious players, like Matt Deladedova or Kelly Olynyk.

sort of a Plan B strategy: if you can't beat 'em, then take 'em out.

I guess I'm the only 1 who doesn't think Deli is dirty.

But I don't want to beat them! I live in fear that my attempts at getting Wray to score as many points as possible might eventually screw up and actually cause me to win a game. That might be something for next season or the one after when I start working on my base layer of creamy outside shooting goodness. Or outside defense goodness. Or driving goodness. Or whatever it is I end up deciding to do.
