Congrats to Coach Shunffy, Prathis and Rexapex on making the round of 64 in the cup! Some quick #s of teams left in the cup by division:
NBBA - 11
D2 - 15
D3 - 27
D4 - 11
Now for the matchup predictions.
Blue Vikings vs Bananahorns
Coach Shunffy hosts a D3 opponent, Blue Vikings. Blue Vikings has a top 8 salary of 220k, but the majority are in inept of mediocre game shape. Looking at each team's last cup matchup, both teams have similar defense, though Bananahorns seems to have a better offense, while Blue Vikings better Rebounding. Low GS for Blue Vikings, plus home court advantage will be enough for Bananahorns to win this one.
Splash Gang vs River Monsters
Prathis had the bad luck to draw not only an NBBA opponent, but the #1 team in the country and last year's Cup champion. Not alot that Prathis can do in this one, as he is just simply overmatched. Splash Gang wins easily.
Cyborgs vs Evergreen Xenos
Rexapex hosts a D4 opponent, Cyborgs. Cyborgs has a top 8 salary of 257k, and the majority are in average to respectable game shape. Rexapex looks to be better all around, plus is at home. Expect Evergreen Xenos to move on to the round of 32.
