Thanks for the recaps, but you shouldn't be so surprised that my team shot the hell out of the ball from outside. First off, you failed to mention that arguably the best big man (outplayed solis 1 on 1) in the league got hurt after 1 quarter of action. Second, you failed to mention that Michigan went with a 2-3 zone which always gets absolutely torched from the outside. So all in all a 12 point game is surprising...but only because Runyon went down. I expected to win on equal enthusiasm, but ONLY because I was at home. If I was on the road Michigan wins on equal enthusiasm. That's why our regular season battle was so important there towards the end of the season.

I love the recaps and thanks for stepping up and doing them in the playoffs!

Masolov finally getting healthy was the key to this game. He is a great backup big man, but was hurt for 3 weeks. Came back with perfect timing for Runyon to go down. Good idea on the LI as well.

Hi rstiger!. thanks for the feed back. Just a few things.


I wasn't surprised your team shoot well from the outside it surprised me that Michigan shot that much... 16 from the outside when they looked inside with your best PF out. I didn't mentioned that Michigan defense was a 2-3 zone because that's what you expect when both teams look inside. Finally, I didn't mentioned anything about Runyon because although he was injured the trend of the game did not change and in that sense his injury had not impact in the outcome of the game.

next time I will try to do a better job though. What can I say.... I am not fella...

Peace, love and open bars!!!!!

Never said it needed to be better...just mentioned some extra points. If Runyon is healthy I win by 20...and that would make me feel better about myself! lol Using 2-3 zone isn't necessarily a given either...some people swear it won't work. I think Michigan may be feeling that it wasn't the best move right about now as well. I'm confident that if he went M2M the game is closer and could have turned the other way. That's just my opinion though.

Like I said, great job and I enjoyed the read.

Well it looks like the MVP goes to Zybartis Kvecinskis in a close race with Ken Wilson. Donovan Runyon also finishes 3rd. My two horses were well deserving although I like Runyon better than Kvecinskis. Both stayed in good GS all season which definitely helped....didn't play them too many minutes and that usually hurts you in an MVP race, but it worked out.

I would take Wilson if I could afford his salary over either of my big men though...he is a BEAST.

Bb charles has spoken to this as well. Solis was hurt by games played and by team. I wish I could find bb charles formula for mvp voters that he posted but I cant. Its very comolex.

Ps. Runyon dropoed 40 on solis....

Predictions


Tachenko vs VDs. Two different teams with two different goals in the beginning of the season will dispute the final. VDs is a outside team with an impressive defense and a superstart like Wilson. Tachenko is probably better rounded but it doesn't have an impressive defense and lacks the impact of a superstart that in a scenario like this can be crucial. VDs needs to win, get in the final and promote to Div. II if they want to keep their best players. Tachenko is still building a team and don't have that kind of pressure. VDs 80% Tachenko 20%

Rougher Nation vs Bobcats. Rougher Nation is an inside shooting team while Bobcats can play using the inside, the outside or both. The court advantage should be enough for the Bobcats to dominate game. However, Dogus is not gonna make it tonight and the Bobcats will have to find a replacement to get the job done. Bobcats 60% RN 40%
