I think we see a few new faces at the allstar break this year. MacMurray seems to be a lock as he led the league in rebounds all season. Lonnie Hardy is another guy who's been at the top of the assist board for a while. Both guys are 23 year old former Canadian U21 team members.

Andrews, Morato and Wagoner have run the top three scoring spots and also might all take a spot in the three point contest.

I wonder if Manuelyan and Amat make another appearance this year?

Thanks, appreciate it. I think MacMurray and Hardy might make some noise and make the All Star this season.

Yeah, it's tough for the scoring spots. There are currently 5 guys scoring 28 or higher after only 1 guy scored 28 or higher last season. Scoring crown might be tough to snag.

I'm pretty sure Manuelyan and Amat will make another All Star appearance, might go out of a reach to think maybe Gabuala and Wereszko will make it. Andrews, Morato and Wagoner should be a lock to make it.

Ehhhh.... $2.5 million for all the upgrades to the arena? I really hope it doesn't make too much of a difference for merchandise/injuries/etc, as it's just another case of the rich getting richer and the poor/new teams getting a short end of the stick (in the short term at least). But any new features added to this game are positive in the long term.

As for Hardy making the AS Game, I don't think so. Playing 8 or 9 out of a possible 12 games will hurt his chances. Also, look at those shooting percentages!

I think it's going to take some time before people actually start to understand how the new features actually work so like the arena, I'll hold off untill everyone else figures it out for us.

Like others have pointed out, all these new features sure seem to put up a bit of a maze for new players - these are very big expenses with little in terms of explanation in the impact they will cause.

The app is really the biggest take away from this announcement. Hopefully they've got a solid idea on how to package everything together nicely because imagine trying to do the arena designer on your phone right now. There are still changes needed in areas of this game before it would look decent as an app.

That's great! Can you take down Sock Bears and Philosopher Kings down as well? It would make my path to the cup a lot more easier lol ;)

All jokes aside, nice job on the upset! Your next cup opponent is gonna a be tough one.

You definitely drew the toughest opponent left (In my opinion) in Philosopher Kings. Though, I don't think it's game just quite yet. I still think you got a chance.

Top Naismith teams may underestimate second or third division teams. I can give you a few reasons why you still got a chance.

1. Kings has a TV game this Saturday against the second best team in Naismith. I'm sure that he'll try in that game.

2. There are actually two cup matches this week (If one wins this match). It's quite possible he'll try to save his best team for his second cup opponent.

3. Never know, training might happen and that mucks up lineups sometimes.

4. Tactics, predictions and effort level makes a difference. And you never know, injuries and foul trouble changes the game.
