I just love how every team in FBCB feels different and even without many interactive elements you get attached to the players because the skill sets are unique for everyone and you can win so many different ways.

In TCB you´d pick up either good or bad SGs, in FBCB you can get a slasher, a shooter, a defender, a rebounding guard or any combination of those things in a 1 star recruit just as much as in a 5 star recruit. Of course th 5 star guy on average is tons better, but if you are controlling a small school you could still get all those type of specialists and at a big school not every recruit is perfect in every aspect you need.

Even with a preseason No1 you don´t have 12 well rounded players but really have to think about your lineup and lineup changes actually make a difference as you can play so many different ways.

Never played TCB but your analysis of FBCB is spot on. I love that the system is so simple yet works. Players skill sets matter. I've had guys that could create their own shot and also guys that needed a good offense to create space for them to get off their shots. Both types of players can be studs in FBCB. It's a great game that I really need to make time to play again.
