Mainly because i jumped right in and invested in several players and had to fight my way into the playoffs only to lose twice to the eventual champion..This is my 3rd season..So NO, Not quite a year yet. I just started investing in my arena..had a fire sale selling all my good ballers over 32, got me a couple young trainess and kept on to a few other guys i had from my 1st season who are still productive.

From: tough

Well, my career so far in BB: I speant my starting cash on Dionisis Mpatirakis (now gone) and some elders, like Darlon Moreno (bad) , Dezider Dekis (good: 6th Man on my team now), Zoran Jakovic (GREAT: Too bad I sold him, I shot myself when he was sold to a daytrader), Marcato (bad, pointless guy, now retired) Pakis Koskinas (so-so, helped me 1 day in rebounding, now a backup for ChuckNorris) then got a vet team that took me all the way to the finals, unfortunately Jakovic and Ruiguo got injured, dashing my hopes off promotion. I got a silver trophy in my first season and now sold off my team. I got the cash to find near NT caliber (on nations like Nigeria or South Africa/Misr) Center Val Delong for 49k. Now I also got a big bargain in Mikey Johnson. Now before me and Cometahalley's game, I bought guard Narciso Catandil for 140k. Now I'm 16-1 riding on promotion, still searching the TL for a guard.

Major Hacks Bro?!! Well we all have em (Hacks i guess), Iv kind of rebuilt on the fly since i am in a poor division with only about 4-6 good teams..But damn, last season I only lost 2 games and then i lost my div finals due to 2 of my older yet best players were injured. I'll get back, a little slower but surely.

My team is relatively bad ass. Pound the ball inside the whole game, and take pride in playing good defense. I've only lost in rebound total twice all season. So basically what i did was get 3 good bigs. a rebounder, a scorer, and a defender. But while i was mainly looking for someone who strictly did that, i lucked out and got three guys who could score well, and my rebounder and defender are still magnificent at those two things. and btw i run low post every game.

on to my SG and SF. My SG needed to have at least 14 OD and 9 Driving. so i got one with 15 OD and 10 Driving. i wasn't worried at all with his shooting abilities, but he did have to pass somewhat respectably as well. My SF is strictly a defensive player, 10 OD 8 ID, but i got lucky and found one that could pass and dribble well. his actual position is a PG.

PG's/Trainee's. I think in a low post offense, the PG is the most important position so i train them the way i need them. My PG right now is a pass-only guy and thats simply because i want my PF and C shooting. So i got my PG's driving up to 10 and now i'm training strictly OD and passing. I'm 15-3 right now in a competitive d.4 league. or at least i'd say its competitive because everyone but the bottom 3 teams in the league sign in every week. so what i'm doing has to be working right? haha

well anyway, my future right now is to stay in d.4 for another year just to expand the arena and maybe get a little younger. Then i'm going to try and promote and hopefully compete right away in d.3. But i guess we'll just have to see

I just want to say that if you mean competing for a championship right away, that's incredibly hard. Most top DIII teams carry 300k plus salary and have been in III at least 3 or 4 seasons, usually more. If you just mean being middle of the pack, that's probably more realistic.

Some good points man...Great Idea. Thats what i am building toward is a low post pound the shit out of my oppenent. I hope to be in D-4 next season as we have a team that toatlly loaded up so Nobody is getting by him our div. But for sure with you man. I want to be more defensive oriented. I do have 3 bigs similar to what you have, scoring, defense and rebounding, I have a bad-ass small forward that can play SG as well and he happens to be one of my trainees.
