	Description Edit \| History

Each player of this game is the manager of a basketball team.

Draft good new basketball players. With each of these players you see what is his expected value in next 6 seasons. And you see his best field position, his height, and how popular he is which is good for your team funds.

Get assistance from a trainer, player agent, banker or even the referee to win the trophies.
The TRAINER can bring your players on the level they would normally reach next season.
The PLAYER AGENT helps you for getting good prices at the transfer market.
The BANKER gives you a good interest.
The help of the REFEREE makes your team 'stronger'.

Try to win the most valuable trophies during your manager period. That, and good perspectives for the current season, is all your team fans want!

Scoring Sheet (ala 7 Wonders)

This is just a quick scoresheet that I put together; Simply print and cut. I found that people had a great time playing until the final scoring happened. They couldn't "see" what was happening so it kinda soured the experience for them. With these sheets, everyone saw how the scores were compiled and had a higher sense of satisfaction with the whole process.
