Lol, I find it an incredibly strange move, given you are now probably going to lose two games (a league and a cup) that as you were at home, you probably would have been favoured to win. But ok, whatever?

At the massive risk of getting trolled again I just can't prevent myself from saying the second 2 point loss this season really hurts. My team had the right people in the key plays, but couldn't get it done. Some day I would love to see how Gian Piero Della Corte did so well. I know he was up against one of the best defenders in the entire ABBL in Roby who didn't just let Gian score at will, tried to get even by jacking up a ton of crappy shots himself.

My cup run is over this week so that's not an issue - figured I'd swing for the fences against you as its akin that a lot of others chasing the same spot as me might not get - I also thought there was an outside chance u would play a crap lineup against me thinking I might tank this and go for the 2 home games which might have lead to me getting a big chunk of PD back.

Anyhow I'll take my chances at home against AP and see how I go hopefully I can dig my way ou of the relegation zone

I think you guys are right. The curse of Snake Eyes still lingers.

Doesn't help that everybody tanks against him so his fan survey is always full marks and his arena stays full. If you could beat him in 1 game, especially giving him a loss before his next home game, that could be 100k loss right there (yes it is possible to have that much of a swing in arena income, it's crazy).

At least he's 1.9mil and 95k per week down now :P

There is only a select few that could even get close to beating him so it's hard to justify not tanking when you can save minutes for a more important even game.

Winning is only a bonus. Winning a trophy or nothing in a season is fine by me. I'm more into training Aussie players now a days. I'm always very tempted to push the button to buy a trainee that fits with my plans especially ones that can make the national team. I apologise to C-Cat, I know you wanted Shishaev but I've been putting off training Walker's passing and now I don't have an excuse with Shishaev. So hopefully Australia will get better point guards. Also not really satisfied with the way some of the trainers are stopping to further train their players when they don't want to push closer to their caps. Which is understandable given their astronomical salaries but with the way salaries keep getting decreased by BBs I think it's more feasible. So rather than hoping trainers will listen, I'm just taking things into my hands.

As for my money, it can't last forever. I'm just having fun with it while I can. I could have easily continue to earn 175k+ per week and save money for the future to win more trophies but I rather put that money to good use right now. The sooner I fall, the better it is for you guys right? :p
