i wished i had searched the transfer list two seasons ago and seen the english draftee that had my name in real life!

his potential/salary wasnt great but it would have been good enough for my new team at the time!!

Since we've been talking about Dennis Rodman in this thread, I know now to not buy Dennis Rodman on the transfer list.

I have been playing since season 4. And the biggest thing I wish is I would have gotten serious about the game sooner. It took me about 5 seasons to get serious. Now I love this game so much I can't believe it took me that long.

What I've learned:

-Scouting is likely a waste of money unless you are going to finish below .500

-Players age rapidly. Pick one player to develop and focus on him. Don't buy a player off the waiver wire every chance you get ... especially young players. Players under 23 lose value rapidly if not trained

-PR managers have dubious value

I wish I knew to only train guards or bigs, and to buy vets at whatever you aren't training. In my first season, I bought a whole bunch of players aged 22 and younger, and would do guard training one week, and big man training the next. Really hurt my team. Also, this may seem really stupid, but when I first joined BB, I thought the number next to the players name (which is player ID) was their world rank, so I would always buy the player with the lower number (which would be the higher rank). That ended up as me buying a bunch of old guys.

That single position training gets you a lot more money when it becomes time to sell your trainee than double position training.

That you can add and remove forum folders from favourites (and thus the sneak preview) right below where it list of threads, so I didn't have to keep going to find more folders, and my league page to find forums I wanted to read.
