Well i can tell you a few things about Budanje's team that might make you understand (he's my brother so i know some inside information).

Firstly Budanje's big men shouldn't be underestimated. Ravbar (the C) was trained this whole season and is now capped and the team's best scorer Berdeogas (the PF) is not a mono skilled player but a very versetile one ( 12 in JS, 12 in DR, 11 in HA).

Secondly, you were wondering how could a 7k PG stop motion. Well i think it's because on Vzajemna's team a 12k PG was playing for the whole game; so his PG was not really much better... It might be even worth mentioning that Budanje had a much better first team PG (Čas), who was injured two minutes into the game. If he was not injured, the game would probably go in Budanje's favour by a much bigger margain.

Thirdly, Budanje's manger picked the right defensive tactic for this game. 3 2 zone stops motion much better than M2M stops push the ball (which Budanje was playing).

I think this made the diference. Any other opinions? Now that I have given the inside scoop someone might be able to explain this better.

I can't really explain this. All the game was a total mess. In every single moment of the game, I was either +10, or -10, the transition was really fast (I lost OT due to his 10:0 run in the first 2 minutes for instance)
Now, my GS is better, my bench is better, I played at home, we both had same level of enthusiasm (around 10) and played important.
Don't look at my big guys salaries, look at their DMI.
And my ratings were REALLY better.
The whole season gone for, what I believe, a very, very evil random:(
I am trying to think what can I do in the second game, and can't really think of points to improve myself:(

to many fouls and some of your players in foul troubles. maybe you took too many 3s too.
bad luck, just beat him twice at the weekend ;)

WOW! Now that was really useful! Thank a lot for such a deep roundup! I will certainly give it a think! Thanks a lot!!!

Well, 3-pointers percentage was quite OK for my team & league;)
It was 1.24 point per shot against 0.91 at 2-pointers;) I'll buy that amount of 3-pointers and more any day in this percentage:)
The foul trouble existed, but was much less important that it seems from the statistics - many of them happened in the last minutes of OT when the team tried to close the gap.
Anyway, thank you for the cheering up:)

I liked the 3-pointers part so much, that I even considering to play R&G at the second game:) Well - depending on the relative shape at friday.
