Part II
Best Games of the Season(Between contending teams)
Pinoy 110- Suns 109: Despite losing Nikola to injury Pinoy managed to put together a 4th quarter comeback and hold on for the win.
Droids 100- Cappers 97: Down 97-94 with 1:46 it looked like the Droids were in serious danger but they stifled Cappers for the rest of the way. The score stayed that way until the :41 mark where Droids grabbed 3 offensive rebounds before hitting a 2 to pull within one with :32 left. An offensive foul gave the ball back to Droids where they scored again to take the lead 98-97. Cappers missed the ensuing shot and Droids hit their ensuing FTs to put themselves up 3 and Cappers missed one at the buzzer to end it.
GTown 94- Bullseyes 91: A low scorer through 3 this game exploded in the 4th with both teams going for 30+. Bunaticky and Huggins both hit clutch shots down the stretch, but Huggins missed the game winner over Bunaticky with 1 second left and Bunaticky proceeded to hit his FTs to finish it.
Venom 102- ATL 100: Allessandro has one of his worst shooting nights of the season, going 3-21 in a tight loss to Venom, on any other night it would have gone the other way, but alas for Allessandro it was not to be.
Suns 105- Pinoy 107: These teams had 2 great games and despite a huge Suns rally in the 4th Pinoy took the series 2-0. Also got the privilege of seeing a Lucky Fan get into at the end for Pinoy.
ATL 102- Pinoy 104: Another close win and huge performance for Whitlock and Pinoy.


Actual Playoff Preview/Predictions
Seeds-B8
1.Xenia-Dominant regular season against other B8ers so far.
2.Suns-Have looked good at times and have the leagues most dominant offense.
3.Pinoy-Picked it up of late to move into 3 seed position.
4.ATL-Get the nod over Bullseyes based on PD

Seeds-G8
1.Droids-All but locked up with huge PD lead over Cappers.
2.Cappers-Unlucky not to get home court after a great regular season.
3.Venom-Currently hold the 3 spot, and have made some pickups.
4.GTown-If they can get the win at Venom this evening they maybe move into the 3 spot, otherwise its a 4 seed for sure.

Round 1
ATL@Xenia-Tough ATL team has a bit of a reputation for letting it get away in big games, and Xenia is just to talented to falter here.
Pinoy@Suns- Pinoy took series 2-0, plus the Nikola/Whitlock combo is tough to stop, I think Pinoy comes through in the clutch again.
GTown@Droids-Not easy, but I'm not letting this chance to promote slip away in the first round.
Venom@Cappers-A case of Venom being unable to match up with Cappers balance.

Round 2
Pinoy@Xenia-Pinoy keeps it close with their explosiveness, but Xenia holds them off in the end.
Cappers@Droids-Could be the match for the championship, at home I think Droids pull it off.

Championship
Xenia@Droids-Droids season long dominance rewarded with promotion to D.III. Leaving Cappers and Xenia to duke it out next season.

I just wanted to take a moment to say that these articles are rather entertaining and you clearly put a lot of work into this. I wouldn't mind getting placed in a league with you someday. You are a one man forum filler. Keep up the good work, I am pretty sure I am not the only one following along.

Yeah, he presents an entertaining snapshot of his league, and does a great job maintaining this thread.

Dats my 27 year old portugese national player, look at my team los heat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obviously a nice player, Probably the best in USA IV. But there's a reason for that...there's no possible way for you to afford him more than a few weeks.

The common sense advice you'll get is to turn that guy around and sell him immediately, and invest in a few young (18-20 yo) trainees with good potentail. Or buy a handful of $5000-$10000 players if you wish to get more competative in the short term.

Nice Game Shape tho...rofl

Not a great pickup, his salary will bankrupt you quickly. Instead work on arena expansion and around 10k salary guys.

Firestorm(7-13) 101- Pinoy(12-8) 116: Pinoy is looking good heading into the POs.

Great8
Venom(13-7) 130- Scarlet(8-12) 102: Scarlet looks to avoid relegation series with last 2 games.
Kinights(6-14) 94- Blue(7-13) 117: Good win for Blue in hunt for #5.
Wall Street(5-15) 75- GTown(11-9) 100: Easy home win for GTown, Wall Street one step closer to automatic relegation.
Cappers(18-2) 71- Droids(20-0) 95: A normal from both teams, am taking no further chances this season in my quest to promote.
