Could be close. It'll be crazy if you fail to move on.

Agreed. But what can you do? Both teams clearly trained GS. No advantage there for either one of us. So now it will all come down to tactics and individual matchups

ehh, woke up in the middle of the night and changed m2m to 2-3. Looks like he went with non-inside offence so midway through 3rd quarter I am getting punished for it. Oh well, at leasyt now I know that this loss wll be entirely on me

Nope, he went inside. If you guessed fast as well, you probably would have won the game. He got you with both GDP and you only got him with 1.

True. I was wronged by shot chart. Looks like he just made tons of late in the clock jumpers after not being able to get inside. Also, rebounding advantage wasnt what I expected after seeing game ratings. Tons of fumbles on my side including 8 second before end of OT that sealed the deal, and not many OR on my side.

Its kind of sad that it's how BBB ends for me this season. Back to drawing board and see what I can tweak to do better in next one if I qualify. (not many options thanks to luxury tax and slim account)

Good luck to LPP. Going to keep cheering for him

Ok, actually instead of creating a new thread I figured that i will use this one. Roster hasnt changed, goals haven't changed.

Had post with scouting on first 4 games done yesterday but somehow it didnt go through and got lost :/
Today was a first game in BBB, and already against arguably toughest opponent (although I think one or two away games will be worse), the 3rd ranked team in the world. It turned out to be a homecourt win with team showing tons of character and pulling away after trailing at the start of 4th quarter. The final score was 98-83.
Pszczyna Team is not known for their offensive pace and it showed in this contest with just 74 shots taken. But once it was taken it was nothing but net most of the time. Over 50% FG%!
Except for 3rd quarter offensive efficiency and suffocating defense were the story of a game.

Next game shouldnt be any easier. Top 100 team on the road. Scouting report to come

Hugely important win. Nice.

Curious to see your draw this time. Next game doesn't look all that bad. Dude lost by sixty, albeit to quite a good team with the reversal of HCA.

Yeah, his roster seem to look better on paper (salaries, NTs) than on the court. We will see though how GS update goes. I plan to throw in couple of weeks of training other than GS whenever schedule allows

Ok. Next up: McHedlo. Looks like they went with GS training this week so this might make things bit more interesting. Here is a comparison of players:

Position Mc Hedlo Pszczyna Team
Name Salary GS Name Salary GS Edge
Guard1 Olem 139,969 8 Barbiroli 138,362 8 ?????
Guard 2 Siegl 93,158 8 Xun Wei 137,337 7 Dont know skills of Siegl but I think Wei
SF Kushakov 51,686 6 Krejci 63,581 9 Pszczyna (big)
PF Mchedlidze 88,085 9 Krovsas 173,330 8 Height, NT status and salary on Mchedlidze scream multiskilled, but his best rating at SF is 14.0 and Krovsas 12.5 so the difference shouldnt be that significant. And since they play at PF edge goes to Krovsas.
C Haydock 180,605 8 Arsenault 168,796 7 Edge Haydock based on past performances and GS.


Key players on the bench:

Mc hedlo: Veselov (80k SG); Tuominoro (75k PG); Yuanyu (17kSG) GS:9 7 8
Pszczyna: Jakes (100k PG); Bradshaw (53k PG); Farley (71k PF) GS: 7 8 7

Now this is a tough one.Veselov is crazy good combo guard, and although Jakes is the same his GS is much weaker. Tuominato is another combo guard but significantly weaker. Now although Veselow can cover SF spot, it looks like they have no subs for their bigs. Thats interesting info. I am farily happy with my subs (outside of their GS) as they cover each position on the court. I would rate it pretty even with McHedlo holding advantage in backcourt and me closer to the basket.



Tactics:
McHedlo this season so far:
R&G m2m x2
LI m2m x2
PtB m2m x2
Now that wasnt much help :D

Since its an away game it will probably be closer than I would like it to be. I will try and rate the risk and then see how to mitigate it. Game starts at 7:30am on wednesday. I wont be here for entire game but I will try and drop in. Stay tuned!

Noticed he crunched the game prior to his first B3 game; the reason he looked horrendous there. Still, wouldn't be super worried here. Mchedlidze and Veselov do seem good for their salaries, though. And Kushakov but 6 GS.

Not so fast. Don't be so quick to judge. puns
