lol
here are some few tips to get a team up and coming
1) Build Your Arena I'd use 200k of that 300k starting cash on your arena, exclusively on Courtside Seats and Luxury Boxes. Because you probably wouldn't win that many games in your current roster status, you'll want to have the rich people come to your arena (thus you gotta build expensive seats

)
2) Get trainees I usually like getting 1 allstar pot. guy to come along for the ride with 2 PAS + potential guys for the best overall training. That way in the future, your 2 PAS Guys start and the AS guy become a 6th Man for the team. Now, it's your choice to choose between guards or big men (whichever one you like) but here is a height tip: taller the guys are, the more you wanna train Inside Shot, Inside Def., Rebounding, and Shot blocking (don't really have to train SB)
The shorter the guy, the more you wanna train these 6 skills: Jump Shot, Jump Range, Outside Def. Handling, Driving, and Passing. Here are ideal heights for guys
Guard: 6'5'' and shorter, the shorter the better
Small Forward: between 6'5'' and 6'7'', although 6'6'' is an ideal height for a SF (but SF are really difficult to train)
Big Man: 6'8'' and taller, the taller the better.
Hope that helps
3) Get some young, but veteran guys After you got your trainees with you, and you have built your arena to about 6500 to 7000 seats, go to the TL and get some good veterans, ideally 26-29 years old, with about 7000-15000 salary. You don't want to pay to much salary for the guy, but you want the most work from the guy. Another tip would be going for a guy with high defense or high shooting (AKA Specialist) that way you can win your games and march to D4.
also I recommend you joining the USA Offiste
(http://s3.zetaboards.com/BuzzerBeater_USA_NT/index/) that way you can get further help from experienced managers. They give you advice about your trainees, your team, etc. and could help your march up the BB Ranks.
Hope this helps
