Same here. I had to sell my starting PF to keep from running out of cash. 94% full arena, although I do put too much into scouting, especially when I won't get much in this year's draft. Wasn't going to win league with those top two teams but hated to lose him.

I guess I built my bigs efficiently to where I won’t get hurt by their salary. I’ve had the same team for last 2 season I’ve been here. I didn’t invest in the draft because I’ll be top 3 every season and also destroyed my infrastructures getting rid of 15000 every update. Is probably why I’m coasting financially

I accidently did the opposite of that. Before I realized that Bigs increase their salaries so much with Big focused skill increases, I focused my trainings on this to maximize for core skillpoints. Only now am I trying to backtrack and train on secondary skills for my bigs. Wish I'da learned the lesson earlier because I'm pretty much capped out on salaries as well.

Besides only training primary skills gives your players/team limitations. Compared to a big with OD passing and HA/driving. It’ll cause so many mismatches and opportunities from other players. On top increase offensive flow for better shots! I like SB bigs because most managers run inside tactics. If you look at the games where people went inside my bigs had a field day.

My bigs come close to breaking the shot blocking league record

Man, I've done it all backwards. I coulda sworn someone told me early on that SB was an overpriced/worthless skill to develop.

Training bigs on passing and stuff; do those skills get used in a C sort of a role. I know that Bigs in real life that move theball well are a boon, but I figured the game engine for this game was more rudimentary and that there wouldn't be as many opportunities for Bigs to be playmakers. Was that a wrong assumption?

Yeah they lied to you, because look at my games where people went inside against me. Vs outside tactics. SB theory of being worthless has been debunked. Manager named of khenry literally went to the NBBA with shot blocking bigs. Bigs with high driving, handling, and somewhat passing create mismatch opportunities against other bigs because the typical big has low OD. OD forces turnovers by pressuring the dribbler cause him to fumble or throw a bad pass. Handling in buzzer beater helps with resisting OD. Join the discord and talk to a guy name Kevincool (https://discord.gg/cKpNkt2)
We’re IRL friends he got me in the game and taught me a lot of the stuff I’m spewing out

Shot blocking helps eliminates easy second chance points too, also helps with contesting and alternating the offensive player shots. When you watch the game and it say this player comes over and alters this player shot. That’s ID and SB working together

I used to focus on inside game and was huge into SB. I need to get back to it. SB is perhaps the most important skill not talked about (except here )

It’s “worthless” because it doesn’t show up in box score ratings
. If it did people would be singing a different tune. Also, people in the BB discord I know talk bout it when I was in there
