Having just completed conference play, we are about to do inter-conference play.

The story so far. In the Big 8, we've watched NBA Swagger, go from a 7-13 (since taking over last season) to a threat to promote, via a big Free Agency spending spree. NBA Swagger sits 6-1 sport the largest point differential. Of course it helps when all the victories are against bots. The lone blemish came at the hands of another new comer as well (season 16 too) IXLOS Sabres. The Sabres have also done a lot of roster shuffling and it has paid off. Only losing 2 road games to the Big 8 perennial powers, the Violatorz and L.S.D. Those 2 teams are doing usual, fighting atop the Big 8 leader boards.

I'd like to welcome new team NY Nightmare. I see he is actively preparing his team.

Over in the Great 8, oo Pwnstarz oo, remain the only undefeated team in the League. Captain Morgans has come around nicely. They are going to threating Something Epic for home court advantage, I think. The last playoff spot is gonna come down to Hammersaurus Rex and Wocerster Buckeyes. Should be a compelling 15 games to go.

Good write up, PwN. Concerning NBA Swag, their squad has taken wins over Violatorz and LSD respectively. They also have six players listed in V.65's league leaders http://www.buzzerbeater.com/league/381/stats.aspx. Those accomplishments are worthy of respect.

Pwnstarz... GO you good thing!

Geez man, awesome season you're having! Keep the wins up - the better your win/loss ratio & PD the better chance you have of promoting, whether you win the championship or not!

I think what the public is really craving concerns who Triumphs on this fateful Tuesday in your game head-to-head with botnasty UGN at The Clinic tonight. Heart surgery in the exam room! Let Lood loose a bit, dude is getting flabby. My man MJ(enkins) too, he's young but can show some things given the trigger time. Let P have a night off to chill at the club for a min or two.

You could run 48+ of MJ and win without P, guaranteed. Adams, Marino, Burrette, Mandic, even Yahalom could make progress toward the leaderboards, bump GS too. ↑pop↑ in Legend for TIE win! Very possible (36253453).

The legit league games seem to have a greater impact on raising a given player's ROLE than just scrimmages alone. I just ran my dev squad in a game and was a bit nervous until the 4th. (36253470) It paid off and got Menotti onto the League Leaders list. Added a nice mini-↑pop↑ in my merch by a few bills.

An interesting if overlooked matchup that I'm looking forward to is going to be what I'm billing as the "8 The Hard Way" game as both #8 seeds lock horns when NY Nightmare pays a visit to Moneyhoes. Young but active teams going head-to-head will tell alot about how each conference rounds out at the other side of the curve. The Nightmare will be flashing some new talent that could start to make noise in the V.65 very soon.

Violatorz (-9) (o/u 192)

The Main Event

oo Pwnstarz oo @ NBA swagger AS

NBA swagger has been lighting up the scoreboard all season. How will that fair against the defensive minded Pwners? Coach Dick Trickle was asked about new acquisition, Marinel Puiu. "The GM reacted with an impulse buy. He'll add some defense at the PF position. Maybe go for a double/double tonight. Who knows. Personally I'm not worried about the offensive end of it. I try to put our opponents through 48 mins of hell!"

oo Pwnstarz oo (-6) (o/u 186)
