So, I'd usually do power rankings, but tbh, it's so close between a lot of teams now, it's tough. So instead, I'm gonna give my predictions for the table during the season. Maybe give an average of the expected records, dont expect it to be mathematically correct. I highly doubt the math will work out.
Big 8 Predictions
1. Mercy Buckets 18-4
2. Green Peppers 17-5
3. Washington Generals 16-6
4. Team Turn up 11-11
5.Clairemont Condors 9-13
6. I BELIEVE WE WILL WIN (SO DO I SIR) 8-14
7. WC Strike Cub 4-18
8. NF Hoopsters 2-20
Great 8 Predictions
1. Trinidad and Tobago Iguanas 22-0
2. TEAM BOCANDE 19-3
3. AnarchyFox 16-6
4. lol lol 12-10
5. Tartans 10-12
6. Bologna's Best Bandits 4-18
7. Dangerzone Dragons 3-19
8. Coiling Dragons. 3-19
As I said, this may not work out mathematically.
So i have myself going 22-0 lol. My defense has improved drastically over the last 6 games of last season, with my new additions. And my offense is more rounded than ever. The only thing I see preventing a 22-0 showing is the fact that I probably won't play my best line up during all these 22 games, since I'm training my Centers out of position. (for most games, but not all :D) My core is also getting older, I don't think they can last another season, down in d4. Plus my salaries will spike again.
bocande HAS the best roster in the league, or close to it. He needs better management skills though. Crunch timing may work early season, but he'll find it harder to win in the 2nd half if he crunches every game.
Mercy Buckets are steadily improving. They now beat the top 2 from big 8 (including last season finalist generals) already. So i'm tipping him to only lose 4 times and grab 1st. That includes to me, bocande, and i have him losing both the other games vs generals and peppers. WHILE I DONT APPROVE OF YOUR OLD PLAYER(S), because youth is the way to go. You're getting better than the competition.
Generals need someone to help out Fleck, he's doing good, but he's not enough. Still needs an inside presence imo. Lots of teams here lack this.
of the promoted teams, I like I believe that we will win, and tartans the best. I don't see any of the others staying up. Both managers look like they know what they're doing.
lol lol, are an interesting case, i'm sure he has at least 2 million stored up after his sales and all that, but he's gone inactive, if he comes back and starts spending he could be a major threat.
Condors are looking good to stay in the division again, maybe he can grab another player to challenge for the 4th spot? Team Turn up look to be in regression, I initially had I believe that we will win at 4th, but I changed things around. I think Condors can grab 4th with some smart buys.
I dont have much to say about the other teams, Anarchy Fox has a decent roster...
even though i had mercy 1st, it could go any way in the playoffs, the top 3 in big 8 are extremely close. So generals although i put them 3rd, could end up in finals again, or green peppers, or buckets.
We'll just have to wait and see.
That's all for now.
Discussion and comments below :D
ALSO GUYS, WHYYYY THE 3-2 ZONE AND 2-3 ZONE OR 1-3-1 ZONE EVERY GAME? THOSE DEFENSES ARE FOR SPECIFIC OFFENSES, YOU CAN GET ABUSED VS AN INAPPROPRIATE OFFENSE.
Also full court press is the worst defense, never use it. Ever. <--- BOLOGNA and i think hoopsters or strike club do this as well.
ok, now comment. tried something different.
