I have home court advantage at the moment and I'm still not sure if I have a shot

I am always the great realist... And after watching our performance over the last week with 3 straight losses I'm ready to label myself a pretender more than a contender! We have made huge strides and been up and down over the course of 4-5 seasons but I don't see this is a title season. I dunno my % chance tho you guys would know better based on how confident you are in your teams.

I crunched my way to the finals last season on the back of scorching hot three point shooting and lucky Game Day Prep, but I couldn’t even keep my home game within twenty in the finals and wouldn’t have won the series in a hundred replays. I’ve got the same squad that I had in the playoffs (though not as good as the team that got me into the playoffs last season).
I’ve snuck into third place at the moment, but PD don’t lie, and at +56 I’m fifth best in the red division. I’ve had excellent luck through 2/3 of the season. With normal luck I’m going to have a very rough time down the stretch; with luck so bad it that compensates for my previous good luck? It’ll be a nightmare.
That said, three of my starters are 30 or over, and this might be the best chance I ever get. I’ll be keeping my eye on the transfer list, looking for a geezer who can be my 5th or 6th best player, but I don’t think I’m going to find him with the money I’ve got to spend.
I’d put my chances at 25-1. To put things in perspective, it’s probably 5-1 I wind up in a relegation playoff. This league is rough. Blue Bucs aren't that good, but they might be able to win home court without having to play a game Normal through the rest of the season. So they've got to be favorites by default.

Serapo is one win away from the Final 4. That's pretty impressive. It will be interesting to see what his opponent does, because he's in danger of relegating.

Yeah man told you my team isn't that good lol. But I've also been playing guys all over the board in order to train my 22-24 year olds. Once we get back to our routine of playing back in position I think we will be better. But I don't see this as a title season. I do see 3 players on my team that I have strong confidence in their development though. We won't be back in the bottom half for a few seasons with this new young core.

I've got a chance to move into 2nd place now.
I just have to beat PuffPuff by 250 points.
I should probably play fast pace. I mean, really, really fast.

Actually you just need to win by 125. You can do that right?
