Just check Pacers game, with m2m i bet he was going to win that game, the 2-3 dind't really help him.

In general I'm not fan of 2-3 zone, but with man to man he would lost much more in this case.
1) with 2-3 zone there were significant decrease in number of shots of my PF/C, with M2M his bigmen would have been probably fouled out before the start of the last quarter as they tend to foul very much
2) he would have had much trouble with my guards layups, but he would have less trouble with SG jump shots
3) with the same lineup he would be destoyed by jump shots of my SF
4) with different lineup he would loose much more on rebounds and also he would lost some power on attack

Do you mean both cup and league runners up in that case?

Still, since there was no response at the time and no official explanation, I hope that Flumpaci wins, because Hostivar would be in my eyes a winner with no legitimacy.

But with this explanation, no wild card will ever have legitimacy. They should introduce system which would work for odd number of pariticipant so that wild card is not needed.
I think it was right of BB-staff to give some wild card. I would have accepted solution with another team received wild card as well.
Isn't it just about your wish to be eliminated by winner not just by runners-up?

So is it his fault it wasn't discussed? If so what he should have done? Make sure it would be discussed? But he was the only one raising the point "what if...".

Then again he is blamed for discussing it as he was allegedly "begging" to get that wild card. Poor boy he couldn't do anything.

BBs are blamed for not stating how this would be solved. Then again if they'd did so some would be more than happy to blame rw that he knew it (50%ly but still) in advance and could prepare by tanking rest of the season (which for the record was not the case) and thus getting some kind of imaginary advantage. Either way he would be attacked for daring to succeced this way.

Don't shoot the pianist, he's doing the best he can. You (all, not just you) are furious because the wild card can actually win it. What would be the point of it if the wild card team could nto win it all? BBs could chose some random team like defunct previous winner which would be sure to go 0-8 in the group stage but qui bono, what would be the purpose. The only legitimate argument I see is someone saying "I checked czech gfinal and tournament and I didn't expected Hostivař in the B3 thus I didn't prepare my roster to face him, otherwise I would do things a bit differently." Funny, nobody said that.

Early preview of the world final, I hope it's a better match than todays playoff match. (32630963)

I think it was good match. I have just little bit of luck on rebounds and opponent wasn't able to stop Gonzalez, Adámek lost effectivity in second half, at first half he was as effective as Gonzalez. On Wednesday I won't have HCA, but I can boost my enthusiasm on Tuesday, but Flumpaci can't.
