The big advantage Urmummas have is not having Aussie, Immortals, Stone Slashers or you on their side of the draw. With a possible bot over here teams are falling over themselves to cut salary and just coast until they buy up for their relegation series. Injuries and training obviously change a lot of things.

Yep, 100% correct although of course they still have yourself (Chelsea Seagulls), HSD, YP Bears and Koops to keep them honest.

It seems unlikely that Aussie will be able to get HCA for the finals, but regardless they will be extremely tough to beat if they decide to keep their current roster in tact.

Perhaps this seasons cup might be more of an achievable target for a team like mine but with 8 other ABBL teams including the cashed up Fish, remaining alive, even that might be too tough of task.

Will 13 wins be enough in the Big 8, to avoid the relegation zone?


Edit

As for Urmummas recent post

Just had an injury to my starting C so thats gonna hurt if i dont have him vs ur mob


Not a bad replacement you got for your 4K though and I suspect that with some gameshape training this Friday he will be back in shape

Training and Peni Lucas injured has slowed things down for my team. Peni's 2 week injury seems to be 2.5 or a 3 week injury now, plus add a couple more weeks of getting into form which will take his recovery to ASW. Fouls may be costing me as well, so I may need another back up or sell Orlinskas (Weekly salary: $ 223 684) and split that into 2 players.

You gave me 9-2 odds, does that mean its really 4.5:1? If so that is too high.
Have you not seen my team lately? 3rd lowest salary in the ABBL. I'm just banking cash and going on auto mode whilst I play around with the utopian team.

I'll give home axis zero odds of winning cos it looks like he will be bot soon.

And I got a trivia question: When was the last time an ABBL team with grand finals HCA did not win the championship?

When I first did the odds I had you at 9 to 2 , but in the 2nd set of odds I just most recently posted, I had you as drifting out in the betting to be 10 to 1.

In retrospect this was a mistake as you are only a game out of the 4 and you nearly once won the ABBL after having a massive buy up and sneaking back into the 4 just before finals.

Not bot yet and as I play them this Saturday, I will be spewing if they go bot on Monday

Dont know, but it appears most likely that Urmummas will have HCA this season

Even more than that the team with the best regular season record has won every season forever with the one exception being the season the 4th ranked Immortals took you down, however they still had finals HCA.

Yeah my team is shithouse and it's only giving me frustrations.
I have some fabulous players but just not the balance needed to better than a cellar dweller in this league of champions.
I have to consider selling some parts to make way for better fitting positions.
my 1 spot is a massive weakness, even tho edwards does do well for his wage, he's just not allowing my stars to do their job properly.
after that, my bench... i don't have a bench at all... Fernando is great and i love him but he's only good as a backup SF
then I have Alfama who was an "ok" PG in div 3 but struggled in div 2.

anyways I need to have a bit of a garage sale some time soon.
I can't be making a weekly loss and still be looking at relegation.

Especially when the Great 8 relegation teams are already sitting on a fortune and are making an extra million every three weeks.

Aussie does have the best team and showed that smashing Urmumas despite using less enthusiam.

Didnt consider it possible until now, but I might have a chance against Urmumas when I play them next game

Going by history I'm just going to simply say. Whoever gets grand finals HCA will get the championship.

SO you either go for the Cup or you go for the league title. Gone are the days of winning the double in one season. Direwolf and whitebeard are just ABBL legends of the game.
