lol congrats to Hippo making their way to Div.II! Like I said they're the stronger team and deserves it more than me.

Congrats Hippo. Well deserved and hard fought!

Well done hippo and well deserve after many great seasons.

congrats woogy doogies!!!
about bloody time you got out of there!!!

Lol thanks everyone & especialy CF for his very kind words & great sportsmanship in the finals. I do feel very lucky to have the win after game 1 but what happened game 3? After you spent less enthusiasm in game 2 you should have been unbeatable but a 21 point win was very unexpected.My 2 big guys really did a lot of damage. Good luck next season everyone & I'll be watching the forums to see who is the next champion. CF you have only been here such a short time & you have done so well I'm sure your time will come soon.

How'd we do in the draft?

I got one half decent PF 18yo superstar, but won't suit my training.

By the way, check out my 19yo PG currently 'up for sale'

Not bad hey?

not bad indeed... 7mill??? maybe I love a bargain way too much but that seems quite steep.

i didn't scout or spend a dollar so i actually came out in front for the draft heheh.
nabbed a decent PG, only star pot but will train into a decent backup i reckon.

Yeah. I would never expect him to sell, but would be happy to part ways if some rich Slovenian farm team should happen to take the bait.

first congrats hippo on making the way to Div II.3! Hope you do well up there and continue to shine as a III.12er XD

There are some aspects in game 3 that resulted the 21 point win. first of all, the tactics wasn't as good. Personally think that if I have played LI I should stand more chance. Secondly, GS was a big issue. The Overtime in the Semi's with Be High really hurt and my bench wasn't good enough for me to rest my starters. over the Final's my GS was poorer comparing to your team, plus David Burbery was on respectable for the 3 games due to the late injury. Moreover, your trainee is more rounded. I don't know your trainee's skills, but since they are 1 or two years older, they should at least have a similar level of primary skills as to mine. However you trained their inside skills for a whole season (don't know if it's correct) so they can play more position and have much better secondary skills. If you have seen the game (which I did for the second half), my starting C was injured in the third quarter and never returned. It just blew away my chances of having a comeback. All of the above plus the HCA you have in the thrid game should cover all the deficit you have of the enthusiasm.

Well this is what I can conclude after the game and hope that it answers your questions. Anyway, all the best hippos in Div II and with any luck I wish to join the ranks soon :)

Thanks. A lot of good points there. Yes it helps a lot that all 3 of my old trainees Presley, Harris & Mokitimi have good inside skills with lots of strong-prominent inside skills. Not liking where I have ended up at all maybe the hardest conference in div 2. Having a hard think about what I will do. Good luck!

Yeah your conference is quite tough, although I don't know them well but i can still figure out some names out there. anyway, you chose the right move by leaving the III.12 and moving "up". Many others chose the easier road to escape the league by sinking "down"......











.... Just kidding :P


Oh and Good luck!
