The fact of the game is that at the moment? LI gets it done, and not much else does. If you are playing a good LI side, with solid D... you better have a good LI side yourself.

I would love to hear what Wolph thinks the top 8-9 teams each have in the bank. I was quite impressive before I spent so much on the two big men. Staying all-Nippon for ever is not my plan, if I think I can balance training & winning next season I will bring in some new guys.

Seeing everyone else gave their rankings...

Surely FCTB, Stunners & Kitakyushu are the best betwen them win almost everything. Then just behind Kawaguchi Werewolves & Swoosh. Trailing a bit is Isehara Pistons, NKRK & me. I know what is wrong with my team & will fix it soon as Ichiro & Eita develop.

I a bit surpised to see my team with 3 Japanese NT players on in ranked 8th by my man Malice.

The force is strong with the JBBL, but not that strong.

Truth be told, im very happy with where my team is right now...and i will be looking to BUY a new trainee from this years/last years draft.

Yasujiro is nearing completion as you all can see buy his play of late. And my U21 player is close to becoming a rotation player. Add in a 3 guy to soak up the remaining training mins and im a pleased manager. As for competition, for me is more a committment to how much is it worth.

You run out and buy some beef, you can win. You stay frugal, you win to a certain point....and when you have 2 NT player HURT in your playoff game, you are going nowhere.

And all that talk about Yasujiro watching his back? (19825173) Check out those ratings on my 24 year old.

The NT coach cant keep him off the floor. when he is 26, he is going after that MVP.

There was no disrespect in that... just observing that your season wasn't what you usually do.
The thing about NT players is that it depends on *where* they're from. Nippon's not quite the same level as some other nations. For example, I'm pretty sure that if Tim was Japanese, he'd be in the NT. At 22.
However, he's from HK...

The standard is going up but compared to the currect team all 3 of my trainees would make the team eventually. I think Eita Wakatsuki has a chance next season if I train primaries, maybe a late callup once the senior team is scrimmaging. The Shinkansen will be a well rounded player who could backup PG or SF although with the great SFs we have he would only be needed when there is injury or game shape issues, he will never pass Wolphs man.

Wolph I wont stay all Nippon for long, back to the usual two foreigners next season I think. I will get them as soon as I am sure what positions I want to train. No point getting a C if I am training C.

GS has me - at times - flummoxed. K-Mat had 64 minutes last week. You'd think that'd be beautiful... but no, dropped from a 9 to a 7.
Suenami had 44 - and went up to a 9. Puentes had over 70 - went from a 7 to a 9.
Excellent logical system...!

Mine was ass too. Two starters dropped to 7 off 67 and 70 minutes....Oh well!!!
