When i was daydreaming of the finals, my only goal was getting a game 3. this would mean punt game one, and play very hard games 2 and 3. if Lucas is needing cash, then he might (confidently) punt game 2 and win game 3. that was my best case scenario.
UK has three tremendous players scattered about the court, outside, a SF, and inside. tough to defend.
by my calculations, the finals only really pay off if there is a game 3 -- otherwise, life is sweet if you miss a payroll for a week by losing the conference finals on a saturday. this made my loss to Steve a lot easier to take.
