Anyone got any predictions for the Playoffs and Relegation games?
Any trash talk?

Closet men - Rabid Goats

I think Closet men will take it, not much to speculate about, Rabid Goats got a small squad (6 players available) with Strong/resp. game shape, I don't know what their Stamina looks like though, but I think Closet men will be able to simply wear them down.

Team of the Scroll - The Philadelphia Oreos

This will be a tough one, both teams seems to have loaded up on enthusiasm and are both pretty decent when it comes to gameshape. The reason I picked Team of the Scroll to win it, is because he seem to have a broader team, he beat the Oreos twice (I dont know what happened in that last game though..) and also I believe this will be the biggest factor that speaks in favor of Team of the Scroll, the home court advantage.

I also believe that whoever wins of Team of the Scroll and Philadelphia Oreos will take home the semifinals and represent Big 8.

Bay Harbor Butchers - Strawberries
Easy win, Strawberries is a new team. Which will allow the BHB to chill and load up with some more enthusiasm for the rest of the playoffs.

Curry World- Swiss Cheese Defence
Without too much analyzing, I will put my money on Curry World to take this one home.

Bay Harbor Butchers- Curry World
Home court advantage and more enthusiasm, will allow the Bay Harbor Butchers to take this one home, there is room for an upset though, you never know.

Finals:
Bay Harbor Butchers - Team of the Scroll
Team of the Scroll - Bay Harbor Butchers
Bay Harbor Butchers - Team of the Scroll


Winner: Bay Harbor Butchers

He will win it in 3, if he's smart enough to realize that after a win at home in the first game, he can rest his troops for a third and final game which would equal more money for the team.

I just don't think Team of the Scroll is strong enough, but you never know, there could be injuries on the way to the finals.. Someone could go off in the game and just make every shot, anything is possible. That's the beauty of it.

Good luck to everybody!

Oh and also, I will not lose my relegation games. I'm staying here for at least another season.

I played with Normal enthusiasm, knowing he would play crunch time, because I knew if I crunch timed, I would not be able to beat Asian's team.

Oreos, took the gamble, and we will see if he can take out the closet men with his weakened enthusiasm.

As I didn't expect to beat the Bay harbor Butchers even had I made the finals, it matters not to me that I lost the first game. For me, i'd rather lose in the first round trying to win both, than win one and not even make the finals. Twas a personal choice.

I like your prediction, i was going for that myself, but, alas, it was not meant to be.

Best of luck to you in relegation games! I am rooting for you!

A great game was played tonight. Luckily for the Os, we managed to pull off a road win in the POs. Up next on the schedule are the conference rival Closet men. A lot of tactics will go into prepping for the semis. Hopefully the luck streak continues for the Os, and a trip to the finals is in the near future. If not, all is well, The front office back in Philly is fully committed to continuing to strengthen the team. Should our season end, the main goal from then on out will be to improve the team economy, and to continue to train the young trainees.

Hope everyone enjoys the rest of they're week. and Congratulations to Shadow and his squad. Great game.

What a nail-biter of a game. Double overtime. Ended up on the wrong side at the end but still a much better game than expected considering I was on the road and he CTed me. Good luck to the rest of you this season!

Surprised to see some of the CT's that came out.

haha I CT too... no way I am squeezing another one out against Oreos, they are definitely not the team they started the seasons as

I figured if either Curry or I were going to have a chance in hell against you then we had to go normal since you had a bye week. Never thought he would CT me.

Yeah, I was pissed last season when epernay went CT against me.

My logic too

Really exciting playoffs this season, lots of good teams !

You're being modest.
