Don't blame me... blame Azariah/the GE. I lost my backup C to injury in the first half, had my starting C foul out in the 3rd quarter, had my starting PF and starting SG play reduced minutes due to foul trouble all game, was on the road and still managed to be up by 1 with 1:30 left in the game before my D fell apart at the end.

I did my best to win, trust me, but there is only so much I can overcome :P

What the heck?! I actually beat the Machines...first time since I've been in DII. Just so everyone knows Darky's achilles heel, it's LI + 1-3-1. Don't think about it, just do it.

I didn't realize you hadn't beaten my Machines yet. There's a first time for everything.

I didn't think the game was winnable, mostly because I was rolling with a soft trainee at C. You can imagine how upset I was that I was within striking distance in the last few minutes.

With Salmon in the lineup, I was definitely surprised it was that close. I give my guys all the credit for going brain-dead and not passing to Turovas (only 5 shots).

I feel the same about Timmons as you do about Turovas. You should be upset with the performance of Thomas, however.

Hard to be upset about Lonnie Thomas messing up in 1 game when he still got a 'W'. Thomas is one of the underrated players in this league.

I'm not sure, but I think darky might have been implying that he had Salmon guarding the SF position. If so, then Thomas was sleep walking.

Exactly.

Following through with your format. Also a shout out to TF, who repped us well by beating a DII.3 team.

NBBA - 0
II - IYF (Away), Machines (Home)
III - 0
IV - The entire Great 8, DEM
V - Phantoms, Dragons
VI - 0

Normally as the tourney goes on it feels like the entire league plays a D3 team. About two thirds of all the teams left should be D3 or better. Goes to show how lucky most of us got in comparison to IYF and Machines...do us proud!

Feel free to CT in the cup anytime you want!

So what do you guys think, better chance for me to win away at phantoms, or win at home against machines? Gotta choose which game to focus on.

Both? Since you are out of the cup, what reason do you have to not play your best lineup against them both? Especially since they have challenging other game this week, I would think there is a decent chance you get both of their #2 trainee. Just my two cents.
