...which is why I want to know what she said.

Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!

Wow, this thread seems to have a lot more confidence in my squad than I do. I guess after finishing in fourth so many times I'm still a little surprised to be atop the division. Home field advantage should help a lot but I am really hoping to get my best player back in the line-up asap.

Are you freaking kidding me???? (25966680)

BB is absolutely retarded sometimes. Absolutely infuriating result. I guess better players, better game shape, and home court advantage are meaningless. Big men and inside offenses are useless.

/end rant, sorry

Well, you did play PON. Can’t say I expected to have a chance with the poor game shape, but with prominent OD vs mediocre flow your guards took way more shots than they should have, and that defense forced 19 TOs, which was the difference in the game.

Prolific (medium) inside scoring vs. average(high) ID and Look Inside.
27 more rebounds!

Ratings wise, Digging is an even bigger upset. Inept flow, but a SG that goes 10-13 from 3pt range!
Outrebounded by 30 boards!

Crazy!

Wow...I missed a lot of the discussion. I would have picked TWSS to win it all...so it show your what I know. Now I've got Silverbacks, whose beat me in our last two match-ups. Oh well...at least I'm at home.

That's what she said!

I just shaved my trained monkey and made him write "I will not doubt Silverbacks" one hundred times on the bars of his (my) cage to further his humiliation after his bold prediction went awry.

Turnovers and fouls/free throws did you in. All those steals meant Silverbacks had more effective possessions than your team, so even though you had a solid defensive effort on his outside-oriented offense, his perimeter players limited your possessions and sloppy handling by your center did the rest. 19 turnovers, that's like what my team does in the worst games, and SB only had 6. My trained monkey predicts you will now focus on training handling and passing. He also predicts your team will have new uniforms for next season, but they still won't be better than my team's uniforms.

Don't ask what sort of Chunks they are, you probably don't want to know. Blowing Chunks since Season 4!

I played PON because my enthusiasm was already 11 and I wanted to make a deep run. Figured that the home court advantage would dissolve your CT.

I expected my outside game to be shut down, that's why I went inside with my 56k, 97k, and 90+k big men against your 42k, 19k, and 13k guys. And yet they were somehow 17-45 shooting even with 2 guys having stupendous and marvelous IS. If you had told me I'd have been -3 levels in OD rating vs. my OS, but +5 levels in ID vs. my IS, as well as +1 in my OD vs. OS and +3 in my ID vs. IS, I would've taken that every day. Not to mention the 3 level rebounding advantage.

I just think it's a flaw in the game if a good outside defense can shut down an entire team's offense (and we had the same OD rating!), a good outside offense is impossible to stop, while a good inside offense and defense is useless because it supposedly can be somehow stopped by a bunch of little guards? This is basically how the Heathens have become a top 5 team in the world and won the NBBA title last year. They had nothing but insanely high OD and dominated. Just don't think it's realistic at all.

Well my guards each have tremendous HN/DV and Billingsley (6 TOs) has sensational passing and no one on my team averaged more than 2 TO's a game, so I'm not worried about that. I have no idea where 19 turnovers came from. And most of the fouls came at the end in desperation, I can't blame that on the loss. Whatever I'm done fuming about this, time to blow up the team and start over.
