Ciao Wagner, thanks for your message too. If possible yes, I'd like to partecipate. Unfortunately I've very few time to spend on BB but after almost 20 years I've still fun to play here

I'm gonna try to sell my best player cause he's old and not trainable so I would save some money in salary and I should be able to lose more matches during the season :p This could be good at the end of the season, at the moment if I will not decide to lose intentionally I think I should close on playoff, after the possible sale of my player having 86k salary I should play playout but the average level of my division is extremely low.

RS Round 8: Friday, November 14th, 2025 ED 70-80 KKS (136504837)

The Aleluja Tactic (o'Mine) could not work every time I face KK Stijha !
A simple Outside defense was sufficient for him to win. Big defense for each, but 70 pts is a bit too few...

Ciao ned,
Yes I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be possible for you to participate (now that we have currently 17 teams on our Season 4 team roster, if all current teams, including D, SUM, and HB decide to continue), as long as you can remain active enough to get through the on and off-season routines of HGL in time(?).

But you already know how things are done in HGL, so unless your time that you can spare for BB/HGL has been reduced dramatically lately, I believe you'll be able to achieve these manual routines without problem (like you have so far).

Alright, would you please let us know if he gets sold, so I can (eventually) add him to the transfers-listing of Season 3. (Yes, informing about selling is not currently totally mandatory, but I'd wish everybody would do so, so that information could be updated). IV-league in Italy (like in Finland too) is likely often very low level league, however, for your HGL success chances it might have a big effect if you sell him... But of course it's totally your call (and sometimes you want/need to optimize finances, I definitely understand that), I'm just saying... ;)

I will be homegwon team and I will find a way to lose again against you and all the other teams in the 4th season :D

It shows a perseverance and good spirit from you, that you're ready to accept some losses as well due to deciding(/or having to) to make changes to a team - probably most or all of us have been on that development stage of a team at some point (well, not necessarily simultaneously when participating to HGL, but nevertheless when participating to our "regular BB-leagues"), in where one is not having close to optimal roster and has to find motivation from the idea, that they'll be stronger in the future.
So it's great to see there are managers, who don't participate to HGL only if they feel they have a chance to win medal for instance, but instead want to be part of HGL in the long run no matter in which stage (of development) their team is in. :)

Yes, of course if someone 'new' reads this, it's also necessary to set up your expectations to a realistic level if you participate with lower skilled team, as level of HGL has definitely gone up - so if winning games is very important to you in terms of maintaining motivation, then it's probably advisable/necessary to train your team to certain level before participating to HGL. Salary level tables for Season 3 can be found from here for instance: (328546.23).

Yeah, I would be disappoint only if I will have an horrible draft this season, don't care about the results even if I wanna try to win one game in our league. My salary right now is 204, if I will sell the player, I'll drop to 120k

Since I was away, here come some of the HGL results from the past weeks

RS Round 7:
Monday, November 10th, 2025
BC Eos | 128 - 112 | Club Trouville
(136506055)

A good win considering the whole game, despite the opponents minimizing the lead in the 4th quarter. Still, we were able to defend their best player solidly and keep him to a moderate amount of points. Also, the missed focus prediction of the opponents was an advantage to us. Karu with 46 points carried the offense.


RS Round 8:
Friday, November 14th, 2025
BC Eos | 89 - 107 | Svätý Jur Snakers
(136505185)

An expected loss against one of the favorits for the title, who were better in each aspect of the game. Both of us played an inside offense against an outside defense, but that did not sway Svätý Jur Snakers from their win.


RS Round 9:
Monday, November 17th, 2025
BC Eos | 94 - 85 | Suuret Muinaiset
(136508486)

A Wagner already pointed out in (328546.75), this can definitely be considered the biggest win in our HGL history, as we were able to beat the favorite in this game by a small margin. Though, the margin wouldn't have been that small, if not for the +21 point win for Suuret Muinaiset in the 4th quarter. The prediction of the opponent's tactics probably gave us the edge in this important game.


RS Round 10:
Friday, November 21st, 2025
BC Eos | 106 - 130 | Hårdboll
(136506573)

Again an expected loss against a very strong Hårdboll side, who will likely play for the top-3 spots in this season too. As I had nothing to lose, I threw in a wild guess for an inside focus, which missed the opponents tactics. Otherwise, the 14-point loss might have been even more close.

For all of my opponents, good games and good luck for the last games of the season!
