yeah the score doesnt do your team justice..
your team looks extra scary on paper and in game..
10 point win is just a cruise for your bench players...

hopefully my guys can make your starters work a bit harder in 1.5 hrs time.
and no im definitely not the fav. i'll be lucky to extend this to a 3 game series.

Meteors should've won this game.. i still dunno how i pulled it off.
its gonna be a dogfight now in game two with Holtz puzzled by this defeat and will definitely bring his A game.

minor analysis:
+22 rebs (23-4 offensive rebs)
thats a lot of second chance points for Holtz...

Carrington didnt play as well as he shouldve... started off really slow but came good in the second half.
Carrington and Nemkovich combined for 10-43 shooting...

thanks Holtz, to be honest after looking at that game

I wasnt the team to beat, you were.
It was your game to lose and the tactics didnt favor you.

Goodluck in game 2.

played 2/3 because I wanted to restrict the number of 2nd shots that Koop got, also he consistently had solid performances out of his big men throughout the year.

It worked regarding the restricting shots Koop had, my problem was the shocking shootng % of my guards.

yeah it worked so well that I only got 4 offensive rebs!!!
maybe it backfired cos then you had less defense outside to guard my 3 point shots...

Have you considered that the bad shooting percentage of your guards could be related to the defense of my guards?

Yes, but that means you have been training outside defence all season OR 5, to get it up to that standard. If so you have well and truly bought into the defence wins games appraoch set up on high in Aussie Buzzerbeater.

defense is overated... I rather train players to be good at all things then just a defense behemoth.

but then again there is never too much defense.. Look at WA is a Dumps team.. prolly one of the best defensive teams in aus atm..

bad luck Holtz - agree with iwen, in that i found 2-3 a strange decision. From memory Carrington's OD was only prolific, which isn't that good that you can get away with a 2-3. Hence Koops SG Khan had good looks from downtown.

I think you underrated your own big man - surely yourcentre Llanes could more than hold his own in a man to man?

not to worry,though, you will get it back i am sure! lots to think about though.

good luck!!
