LOL! That is why my season is going so well:-(


Maybe you should have been friends with officials instead.

That does suck, however UK did just win, he might lose the #2 pick in the draft to 'The King and I'.

It's possible you could still pick up a free win as teams tank for a Cup game. Maybe?

Yeah, they lost because the other team tanked it. :) I was originally thinking when I was bounced from the cup early that I would pick up at least one extra win as teams spread minutes out. But now, with teams playing UK, they can run up the score and rest starters knowing mins will be spared or simply not playing everybody because UK only has 4 real players. Either way, every teams gets the TIE right before playing me and I don't get that certain TIE with great minute management until the final day of the season.... I strongly endorse teams tanking against me!

This season has been pretty rough for me. Something nobody knows is how my old timers had some crazy skill drops. For example, Xinbin, my 180k per week guard I sold earlier had 3 OD, 2 handling, and 1-2 JR drops the first 2 wks after salaries were set! Including other players I had more total skill drops in the first 3 wks of the season than my previous 2 seasons combined - and I usually roll with the retirement crowd.

To top things of, Berthod my starting SF, had a 3 wk injury on 5/10 and is still out. I thought injuries were like clockwork, when did the variability happen with that?

Ouch. I'm assuming career extension trainer. I didn't even think that was possible to have 6-7 drops in 2 weeks.

Injuries blow. Unfortunately they've never been like clockwork, it's always 7 x Weeks Injured + random number of days 0 through 6.

So a 3 week injury can be anywhere between 21 and 27 days. I hate injuries. It always sucks when your highest salaried player gets a 4 or 5 weeker. You basically have to get rid of him. And suddenly you're out a great player + the money you couldn't get since he was hurt.

Seems like the 'King and I' is gearing up for a relegation series run.

Wow, so all 4 teams left are no worse than a 3 seed in their conference. Cup vs Playoff positioning is going to be interesting.

You should tank your Cup game and prepare for league playoffs. There's no shame in that.

That's what I try and do every week, yet despite my best efforts, I'm still in the cup. Clearly I'm terrible at tanking.

I love my schedule in a four game stand I play In Your Face and Delta 9, and this is after I played Beward of Dogs back to back a couple of weeks ago. Alas with the only NBBA matchup in the Tournament, something is going to have to give on Tuesday or Thursday.....stay tuned.

I feel bad for Delta 9, he's getting injuries right when the Cup starts getting really hard. And it's an injury to the player that just got healthy too.

Sidenote, IYF and Dog River had a really weird game. They combined for no less than 48 points in each quarter until the 4th. Where they had a combined 15. Do both teams just have god awful stamina or what?
