Had a better overall team before i sold everyone lol.

I think that set of 10 would beat my current 10 despite the 3 super players.

To be fair, i bought guys that could dominate in d3 as well, and i had the cash to do it...

Playoffs about to begin, and my predictions for tonight are-

Green Peppers 3. vs Washington Generals 2. - Peppers pulled out a win on generals recently, but I think they showed this too early, going for a generals win since i believe he'd learn from the loss.

Mercy Buckets 1. Vs Team Turn Up 4. - pretty good team for a 4th seed, TTU should cause buckets some problems, but I think he'll edge it.

Tartans 2. vs Bologna 3. - His inside game will be too much for bologna. and bologna's backcourt won't be strong enough to abuse tartan's weakness there.

Trini Iguanas 1. vs Star Shooters 4 - relatively new team in shooters, my star power should see me through easily enough.

---------------------------------

Relegation playoffs.

I believe that we will win vs Spartans - should be an easy series for the boys from big 8

WC Strike Club vs Vinny's Mafia - should really be in the top 4, but the manager isnt active enough... should blowout mafia every game, easily and secure their safety.

Matches beginning now, will keep my eye on upsets in big 8 playoffs =)

If Mercy Buckets hadn't have done crunchtime, like I did, I probably would've won. Best of luck to you all!

I didn't set any lineups this week, didn't change the enthusiasm which is why we had the same. For comparison, I also didn't set minutes for my better SF and PF at all. Good game.

Back to back Big 8 Conference Champs here in League IV.11, despite my bench trying to give the game back to Mercy Buckets in the 4th. Now here's to see if we can make noise in the Finals.

lol, Tartans gave me a slight scare in the 4th, was down to a 2 point game at one point.

Best of luck to you, should be some good games between us.

big game for my boy Ram at SG, showing he can lead my team as well.

Oops accidentally won by 60. My trainee had 40 and 20 at Center somehow too

Oh and if Tartans hadn't guessed wrong for gameday prep focus, Trinidad might not be in the finals

Point of note: I revealed my team roster strategy through the end of the year to Trinidad at one point and after doing that he copied. His original plan was to build cash and now his plan is to get a quick promotion and sell those 3 guys and then tank(my plan that I revealed to him). Definitely rooting for generals

Real mad I guessed wrong...

I never thought you'd beat me tbh lol. No disrespect intended.

Being totally honest now, my old roster was better, i had 8 really good players, and 2 more capable defenders (bench) players. That 10 wound beat my current 10, this current roster is being driven by my 3 superstars. Vance, LLaurado and Sven are very capable as well though. They are steals for their salary and price. I sold my old roster because I was going to quit the game. I changed my mind after, and i really just wanted to promote, i'd lose my mind spending another season in d4.... so i spent the money on those 3 guys.

and I'm not tanking next season, I plan to add a PG and a solid defensive SF about 3/4 through the season, i'll have a great starting 5 by then.

wasn't a smart thing to gdp me, i change my offense a lot, i expected the gdp tbh... and i have a very capable SG in the backcourt, proven today when he scored 31 points (he threw up some bricks in the 3rd... but he came up for me 1st, 2nd and 4th).

Just another note, I normalled vs your crunch time, which could've been a 15-20 point difference tbh.

Honestly though, the wrong guess helped me, though i still think i would've edged it by a few points =)

I'm probably guaranteed bot promotion based on my record + point difference (bot promo based on teams that didn't win the championship with the best record = replacing the d3 teams that went inactive but did not relegate) but you don't get the fan bonus that you do for winning the championship. That's an advantage to running the table, plus the homecourt advantage throughout playoffs of course.

Your telling me of this plan didn't affect my thinking, I hope you don't hold it against me, I've been down here too long. I barely lost it last season, and i believe i outsmarted you tactically ;)

All the best though, bologna just bought a nice 25k PF, they may give you competition next season.

And i think it will be pretty close, unless a strong d3 demotes, anyone can win the league next year.

getting ahead of myself though, generals are a good opponent and will definitely give me a challenge.
