Rough loss today. Poor tactics on my part definitely didn't help.

your team just doesn't match well with mine. Don't blame yourself.

Day 9 is over and we haven't seen a single close game on Saturday.

Well Illusion @ Hawks could be a close one unless Illusion could turn the ball over less in 2nd quarter, 99-88. New guy Obregon couldn't hit the shots but could finish with a triple double. Illusion GM Russel was happy with his performance and suggested fans to give him some time to adjust. Hawks are still undefeated.

Another undefeated Gavno visited Cleveland and got what they wanted, 87-100. Notable stat was 13 blocks for Gavno. Gavno played run'n gun which they don't usually prefer, coach said "we had to do something different to steal a win at Cleveland" during after game press conference.

Steppers look like a different team this year. Magic is one of the best teams in this league but Mina and company totally disappeared on the second half, 85-112.

Consistency pays off for Investors. Easy win at Trafficers, 65-92. 3rd quarter score was crazy, 4-25. Investors now climb to 2nd seed, Trafficers still winless. What Cresleys did in season 11 can be an inspiration for them.

Flyers are the break through act of season 12. 2 rising stars of this season met at Martin Memorial Arena and Flyers topped Bangers in front of home crowd, 83-50. Beavers had 1/17 from the field, great defensive effort for Flyers. Matan Saadon deserves credit for locking Beavers and still managing a double double.

Goats climbed to 4th seed in a very tight Great 8 after grabbing the road win against Dutchmen, 112-98. Galvão Veiga Paz of Goats scored 40, including 7/9 behind 3 pt line. After the game Dutchmen coach was like where did this guy come from, why none of my scouts told me anything about him.

Armaggedons did their best against Tachenko but fell short on the last quarter, 85-74. Tachenko really needed this win bad.

Tachenko wasn't the only team that needed to win so bad, Pistons lead by Daniel Power had their 4th win of the season against Broncos, 110-82.

Player of the day was Cypriot guard of Magic, Marcos Ketikidis who had a great night with 25 pts, 12 rbds, 6 asts, 1 stl and no TO.

Must see games of Tuesday are Flyers @ Goats and Magic @ Investors.

Here's a an update on how some of the former Div III.4 teams are doing so far this season.

Rip City: Div IV.29, 9-0 and stands on the top of the league.

Cresleys: (I really liked their comeback last season) Div IV.26, 8-1, 2nd place

Mighty Booshes (Death Star): Div II.2, 4-5, 5th place and contending for playoffs

Junior Knicks: Div IV.34, 9-0, 1st place

Scrap Heap: Div II.1, 4-5, 4th place

Divinedragons: Div IV.49 (my very first division back in season 7), 8-1, 1st place

Cambridge Conquerors: Div III.14, 6-3, 2nd place (a team that definitely benefit from demotion)

Mn Ciphers: Div III.5, 4-5, 5th place

Pawtucket Pyromaniacs: Div III.3, 7-2, 2nd place

San Diego Serenades: Div III.1, 1-8, 8th place

Most of our graduates are doing very well. Winners hold on to Div II and losers come back so soon with bigger experience and better rosters.

Some of these guys still post on our forum but it would be nice to hear from the others.

your updates are the best!

My Rival, The Magic.. is trying to sign a promising young player of mine.. I think he wants to rub my face in it, not just beat me. :P

thanks!

are you talking about Istvan Sali. I wish I had the money to buy him I really liked his skills, my type of big guy. A little bit short though. He can be the next Barkley.

Thanks for the info on the recent teams that demoted or promoted from our league. I wish Conquerors and Pyromaniacs had promoted back into our league they were always good competitors. Also a big congrats to Death Star and Low Poster division II is going well for them. It looks like not 1 team from our league is not doing well, Serenades are 1-8, but they did make it back to divIII so thats something.

Good game yesterday, it looked to be a promising grudge match after the first quarter with both teams playing great D, but you were killing me on the boards and I had too many turnovers. The second quarter your boys blew up and besides a couple minutes in the 4th when i brought it back to 5 pts you were the clear winner. What is Salisbury's defense because he did a number on Barr? Also whats Billon's rebounding collosal?

It's nice to see my squad in 2nd place this late in the season. Although, it is a bit of a smoke screen at this point. Magic on Tuesday will be a huge test for Carmona and crew....

Hawks... Great stuff on the former divisional teams!

salisbury is normally not that good defensively but playing against Barr is enough motivation. Billon is a great rebounder not collosal of course.

2-5 seeds in great 8 is pretty tight. Hope some of you guys can beat Gavno.

Yep! Salyi.. I would like to keep him and train more guard skills for him, make him into a small forward.. but I need to make a cut somewhere.. I gotta keep my trainers and the starters are pretty well set
