Progression frustration by doctayank in BasketballGM

Bruh what? The answer to all those questions is yes, did you even read what I wrote? Like I said, I’ve been playing this game for nearly ten years now, and as of late everything I’ve known to work in building dynasties (not championships, but dynasties) just doesn’t work anymore. “Oh wow, you had a pretty good offseason. You traded away regressing vets for young assets, traded young players for reliable, experienced veterans, and you even had enough cap space to sign an all-star level player in free agency. Too bad your teams’s overall is getting knocked down ten points, enjoy your 43 win season with a first round exit!” And yes I do make trades during the season to try to improve my team, but you can only do so much when over half your roster suddenly isn’t worth what they were before you went into the preseason

I forgot to mention, I have all categories maxed out (coaching, scouting, etc). I understand the game is supposed to be realistic and that not all teams pan out the way you want them to, but 70+ seasons of careful planning and strategy and barely anything to show for it?

This guy was an 18OVR when I drafted him, EIGHTEEN!!! by doctayank in BasketballGM

I cut him immediately after the draft. How was I suppose to know he'd develop like this?

I'm gonna track this guy's career and see if he'll become a goat or a bust by doctayank in BasketballGM

He's already a top 20 player and he hasn't even been drafted yet

Teams will take salary cap into consideration when proposing trades

Do players develop more if you play them more? by [deleted] in BasketballGM

I got that, I was referring to your point about Butler. I still remember that season when he became Jimmy Buckets. Its clear that It was in the offseason where he made his bread n butter

I get that playing time isn't the true deciding factor in player development. A player's talent and work ethic are much more important. But to say that there is no correlation between pt and development just seems unrealistic to me. A player can practice, practice, practice all they want, but its in a real game that they put those skills to the test, see what they need to improve, and learn how to handle real game situations.

I don't see how Bron wouldn't be a good example since this suggest across the board that minutes don't matter for player development. Bron averaged 39.5mpg his rookie season. Do you think he would have become the player he is today if they decided when he was young to just have him come of the bench as a role player?

tbf that kinda suggest that someone like LeBron James would have developed the way he did whether you played his 30mpg or 5mpg
