FB/Naps, cheers. Sorry to see you go down. Don't worry I'll see you next season hahaha ;). Joule/Ohmers - Not sure my team has what it takes against your boys but i'll give it a good go. I think all would agree that you start favourites! All the best.

Aww not so fast Nasese. You have a little more fire power than i do, thats why i'm not counting you out quickly. TRUE, Ohmers has some terrific defensive players, but do they have enough????? I Have no idea. It should be a good though. Either way, I'd be happy for both of you so I can have a chance to win the damn thing next season..hahahaha

I bet on Muggles winning the first game, but losing the series once Petko Mandic returns from injury and has his game shape fixed up through Game Shape training. It looks like it's going to be an extremely interesting series. The Muggles have higher salary overall right now, but some of the Ohmer players salaries are very deceptive due to training during the season. I bet Richard Cooke's salary next season is going to be near 20k. That guy has gone through a lot of growth this season. His ratings just keep going up. The Ohmers only get more dangerous with Petko Mandic's return. We all know how much that guy can score...
Anyway, luck to both the Ohmers and Muggles.

I think Muggles is more likely to win -- I'll be losing in gameshape next week because of fewer good backups. And Cooke hasn't improved as much as you may think, probably not 20k salary anyways.

I have many of my older higer salary players for sale now and a couple of others. I just plan on keeping Miho, Rueban and Alois b/c he still trainable it seems. Just going after a solid pg and some 7-10k players like i had a couple of seasons ago. May lose a few but i'll be in the p[layoffs again.

Thanks for your support folks. I have the full roster, so yes I've got a slight advantage but purely on paper! My aim is to take it to 3 Games..... anything can happen then. Good luck Ohmers.

Don't be so quick to give up. Second half you guys made a huge rebound (pun not intended) and actually got more points than my team did for the half. I doubt I could replicate the success of the first l, and you played normal anyways. With my gameshape and enthusiasm going down next week, I forsee a close third game.

To Ohmers: The second half of the game can be reasonably described as "garbage time." And by the 4th, neither team was probably taking it seriously. You're probably training Game Shape, so it won't go down. Granted, his enthusiasm may be higher than yours, but you may have Mandic back. And across the board "average" ratings...extremely impressive for a D-5 team. I predict another win for you.

To Muggles: You might not want to run Full Court Press against the Ohmers. They have an "average" offensive flow rating. That's pretty high, even for some D-4 teams. They're not going to turn the ball over enough to make up for the decreased defense and decreased stamina in Full Court Press. You notice that in your last game, the two of you split turnovers pretty evenly. You might want to try Man to Man against him. What have you got to lose? You also got severely out-rebounded, so you might want to try 2-3 zone to remedy that and contain Richard Cooke. However, 2-3 could create bad mismatches, allowing someone like Mandic to dominate, assuming he comes back. Do what you will, but I don't advice Full Court Press. That defense only works against teams with bad Offensive Flow.
