Awwwwwwwwwww yeah Giggity/

abimbola drops 50 points on the big 8! buahahaha!

despite all you big 8s always having a whinge about how tough it is in that conference.. the lowly great 8 manages to oust them in the all star game for the second season running..ooh yeah!

i think i got robbed in the 3pt comp. my boy chung gets 23 poitns along with the other 2 guys, yet doesnt make the final?

He scored more blue balls (oh god, dont go there)... he got more money balls.... wait... he scored more final frame balls than the other 2 guys, so im wondering why he didnt make the final?

Anyone know the rules regarding this? What happens when 3 peeps score the same score int he first round? Who goes through?

Coz your boy Chung only hit 3/5 in the last set
the others scored 4/5 5/5 so you lose broheme.
LEGIT

I dont think I whinged, however the statistics i mentioned previously are quite damning.

i.e.

Big 8 have a combined tally of 60 wins to the Great 8s 44 wins
Big 8 have 6 teams with positive point differences to the Great 8s 3 teams
Big 8 teams combined have a positive point difference of plus 577 v the Great 8s negative 577

Perhaps the Great 8 has a few champion players (salary hogs) where as the Big 8 has a large number of very competitive well balanced teams.

Ofcourse the result would have been different if Ziggy Jolly had have been played as a Power Forward

Is that the official ruling? Last set is the tie-breaking methodology?

Yeah man I'm pretty sure it's just a count-back.

Another Big 8 and Great 8 statistic to ponder.

The teams in the Big 8 combined have 23 players whose salary is greater than 50K per week as compared to the Great 8s 18 players.

3 teams have only 1 player over 50K they being; Wagadugu Hippos, The Players and the Mad Rangas

6 teams have 2 players over 50K they being West Indies, Geelong Vipers, The J Ballers, Mayhem, Northcote Slammers and Hadders Heros (4 of those teams are in their top 4s for their conferences)

3 Teams have 3 players over 50K they being: Tannum Tantrums, Team Akuma and Hopelssly Addicted

3 Teams have 4 players over 50K they being; Coalcliffe Clippers, Crockers and the Cunning Linguists (2 of these teams are outside of their conferences top 4)

One (1) team and only one team has 5 players with salaries over 50K , that team is Avalan Jets.

Hopefully one of those that i have will be sold very shortly.

$50k is an interesting number though. Of the 4 that i have over $50k, only one is above $60k.

ahhhhhhhhhhhh statistics.

16. Mad Rangas (196653) 12 $ 182 285 $ 15 190 $ 17 666

Such a compact league. Except for the Hippos and the Rangas everyone else is within $140,000 of eachother, so if CROCKERS bought one $140,000 big man they would jump to the top salaries in the league. Who will make a big move to break away from the pack? Sid has done it before and while training is nice, a season tanking in the ABBL would let him get a level seven trainer and do out of position training with no worries, hard to top that.

Thanks Yoda for trying to stir up some interest in this league forum.

Since the loss of VIOS the forum has died down a bit and I had been contemplating posting a RIP editorial about the demise of this forum.

Well I wont be buying another trainer for a while as during the week I spent 808K on level 6, 20k per week trainer.

Big mistake.

Anyways if you disregard the number of wins for each team in the corresponding places in each conference, then the conferences are almost identical.

Both conferences have a team trailed off in 8th place (being the Hippos and Rangas) who are each out of touch with the 6th and 7th placed teams who are on an equal number of wins.

The 5th team in each conference is only 2 games away from the 1st placed teams.

Both conferencess have ABBL experienced cashed up teams in 3rd place who potentially could monster this league.
