5 fouls. Might want to check your trapping and pressing when you have foul trouble. I want to develop a n00bs guide to FBB. Any GMs that are willing to reveal tips, please let me know. One thing I always look for is SPG+BPG v TOPG. Ideally Id like to have +5 there. Some of my better teams in he original BBS were like +9 or 10 which is rare. I remember a couple of times when I won the title it was like 20 - 10. Essentially its just extra offensive opportunities. I'm at +5 because I have a few guys who are pretty good at getting steals and run a slow offense. You're at -.7? Not +5. I'm +5.8.

1-1. Its good to see us win a game, even if its against the Pistons. Elton had 32 and 18. Bynum only played for 13 minutes for some reason. The next game was a throttling by the Magic. It seems Aaron is still out to dominate, as his team did to me. 13 point loss at home, DJ had 43 points. Bynum had 8 blocks though! Were still looking for that point guard. 5 fouls.

Considering I've only dealt with FBB for about a month and a half now, so I don't understand all the subtleties to it.

4-1, still got to tweak the DC a little bit. Mark, why don't you like my team? I've put a lot of work into it and I really feel I have the ideal combination of players/ratings right now. Don't get me wrong, I love it. It's obviously sick. My post was more to say that I don't think the East is yours. I don't think it is dominant to the point where it's like, damn, sucks we're in the East. I think both the Knicks and I could win the East as well. That's cool, should be an awesome year. I think the Knicks can be easily exploited in the playoffs if they don't add another piece/stud this year, but I'm sure Outlawz is working on that now that he sees he can be dominant this year.

Wow. I tweak my DC to have SOME defending, and Bynum fouls out? This is so confusing. A+ defense shouldn't foul out to a player like Lopez. Remember that because hes your last line of defense, maybe if guys are trapping that leaves someone open and they get to the rim.

I think 10 steals + 10 blocks on a team that doesn't trap/press much is awesome. Its rare, but if it can be done, your team has a great chance to succeed.

3-1 sim Wins over the Magic, Blazers, Jazz. FUCK NEW CANAAN,. Lost to the Knicks. Easy. I'm not from nor do I live in New Canaan. I don't know why everyone thinks this. I was Aarons roommate freshman year and I have met all the NC guys but I have never resided there.

Yeah, one move I'm trying to get done right now would make me ridiculously versatile. If I can get that done, then I really think I'll be tough to beat. I could play so many styles.

So you're saying its basically a risk-reward type deal? You risk getting a lot of fouls for the sake of making the other team turn the ball over? I get that. Now I just have to implement the right frequencies.

I don't get where risk/reward came in. It's so difficult to have 10/10 blocks/steals. There is no risk if you can get that. It is all reward.

The reward of getting 10/10 blocks/steals, but the higher chance that your player will commit fouls. Like what happened to Bynum in my game vs. the Pistons. 13 minutes in that game before he fouled out.

He means having like trap and press always could lead into more TOs but also more fouls/

John Wall is actually so damn nasty. This dude can do it all.
John Wall PG 21 6'4'' 180 B+ B- A B- C- A
Sick ratings.
Statline:
16.0 PPG/4.5 RPG/9.8 APG/2.6 SPG/3.2 TOPG. His TO's are a little high but those will go down eventually. He's shooting 49% from the field and scoring 16 PPG as a non-option.
Yi also continues to be massively underrated:
20.0 PPG/8.5 RPG/2.7 SPG/1.0 BPG/1.4 TOPG. Incredibly efficient. He's shooting 51% from the field, 83% FT's.
DeRozan is just a golden god:
24.2 PPG/9.2 RPG/2.4 SPG. How many guys playing SG actually get 9.2 RPG? Sick.
And Mr. DeJuan "I'm overrated offensively" Blair:
20.1 PPG/8.8 RPG/1.4 SPG/2.1 BPG/1.7 TOPG on 44% shooting from the field and 75% from the charity stripe.
I like my team.
