*The standings likely won't change, but there is 1 game left. 2 and 3, 5 and 6, and 7 and 8 could all flip flop.
So, how did things turnout? I did my first ever power ranking before the season started and the order I predicted was:

1. Detroit Globetrotters
2. Eternityz Rostah
3. Linndale
4. Andersonville Alligators
5. Duke Devilz
6. Everett Everymen
7. No Limit BPE
8. Page 2

This is how it turned out:

1. Detroit Globetrotters ...expected
2. Linndale ...mild surprise, but I expected to be tough. We still can't shoot...
3. Page 2 ...Tanko and Rapp were as expected. The roster changes they made were definitely beneficial.
4. No Limit BPE ...Perez and company delivered. I said I’d keep my eye on them. Glad I did.
5. Andersonville Alligators ...another mild surprise as I expected more from them
6. Eternityz Rostah ...well, I didn’t bet on them, but I didn’t see this either
7. Everett Everymen ...Snell is for real. The rest remain to be seen.
8. Duke Devilz ...See? Even when I try to be nice and say nice things about Duke, I can’t!

33 of 34 from the line to offset a double guess with a CT. Whew…pay for the training court fellas. Never know when it may save you.

Wasn’t expecting to win after failing to land a couple of players that would have really moved the needle earlier this season, but man what a brutal way to lose. Double guess, PCT, highest possible enthusiasm, solid tactics, all to lose by giving up 34 free throws to a team that’s elite at them. Good game. I gotta get some players that don’t foul so much.

Great game! Man you outmaneuvered me on that one. You deserved that one honestly. I got lucky.

Congrats Detroit. Undone by my team's consistent inconsistency and our inability to make shots or defend in the second half. The better team won.

Considering I went undefeated against the great 8 last season and had 5 losses against the big 8

So you're telling me you had 5 losses against the Great 8, the same number of losses that I had. Do I have that right?

Sounds to me like you got 5 problems of your own to deal with. You should probably do that.

Done.
