i should call you all sorts of names... :P but i won't.

you aren't the only one to blame... Altho, it's going to hurt the Nt like hell, cause we are losing some very important players...

And it should be said, it has been the first sweep in over 2 seasons! I'm pretty happy with the outcome of things. nothing changes in our division standings, and let's face it. If we get swept each saterday, then we'll have better draft spots. so all in all, i'm pretty happy about tonights results. And considering that my B team lost by 32 points against Phoenix on Phoenix's court, i think i should be pretty happy about that aswell.

§o all things considered, i think what happened tonight was the best case scenario for my team :D

I have played CT (yes, nico and me have played CT both Yesterday) in the middle of the season for the first time ever.

first step into selfdestruction.

but that is the whole problem. Armstrongs always seem to gamble with their defence :P they did it when i played with them in II.3, and by the looks of it, they keep doing it. Everyone knows that Sums biggest threat is his inside power, so why on earth go outside box and one...

It was just a pure gamble from him once again... He gambles with the tactical set up, he doesn't think it thru like most of the other managers would attempt to do so...

(btw, to be clear, no offence is ment to any manager. i'm just stating simple facts here)

so you can say all the if's you want Joe, but since Armstrongs often gamble with their set ups, they rarely get it right, thus i never expected Sums to be in any kind of trouble for the game.

For the moment I don't have a lot of time for BB, so it means that I can make some mistakes ... this time when I've made my team for the cup I was scared because with Ivavicius who just came back from injury and Isern who was out ... My team was not very competitive ^^.

By the way I was lucky to win this one because I knew that the match will be close ;)

by the looks of it, Antwerp Giants are giving up...

Sad to see another one go, i just hope that he'll retool in II and work his way back up again. And Sum sure is having a hard time against a III team. CT vs TIE i presume? Sums should make it, unless he misses all his FT's and the other guy hits nothing but 3's...

All-star game is next...

I think that the Great 8 conference could end up being an entire line up of NT players (If mees makes it as starting PF, but i dought it that he will... maybe in the futur?).
I'm expecting for Great 8 conference:

at the PG: Deseure (Mizu) and Thys (Cowboys)
should be a close one who gets the starting role. Titeux(Stonestars) might be able to get himself in the lin eup, tho i think he'll end up 3rd. Not sure who to expect on the 4th spot.

at the SG: Asli(Mizu) and Kosicki (Obira)
Starting position should go to Asli, tho Kosicki won't be far behind. Lui Long(Angels) might be able to end up as second SG, tho his 4 game absence ( due to injury) probably will have done him more harm than good. Strankauskas ( Est.Absurdas) will probably be the 4th guy in the voting.

at the SF: Ottevaere (Angels) and Moray(Est.Absurdas)
With Otvetchikovhaving played to many games on other positions ( as Vercaigne and Mees did too probably) SF will most likely Ottevaere and Moray, with Ottevaere probably leading the voting. look for Van Braeckevelt (Mizu) and Otvetchikov( Cowboys) to be in the voting aswell.

at the PF: Oriol ( Mizu) and Loodus ( Stonestars)
Hard to make predictions here. Normally, the second spot would go to Alan Jolie (Est.Absudras) but he's probably played to litltle ammount of games. Mees (Cowboys) same story. Not enough on the PF. Thus i expect that Martinez(Angels), Jermaks (Obira), Loodus ( stonerstars) and Tiber (Falco) to be in contension for that last spot. I'm expecting the order to be: Oriol, Loodus, Tiber, Jermaks

at the C: Fleeton ( Angels) and Lequellec (Cowboys)
Fleeton seems to be a no-brainer at the C. Played in each league game up till now at the C spot. He's currently leading the BBBL ( or atleast was leading before tonights game) in rating, and leads the league in blocks per game, per 48 minutes aswell as total ammount of blocks made this season. He's averaging Double Doubles this season, so i don't see any reason not to expecting him as the starting C. Lequellec seems the logical second guy, considering the numbers and ratings that he has put up this season, tho he might have played to many games out of position. If that would be the case, expect Van Praet ( Est.Absurdas) or Alija (Stonestars) to take the second spot behind Fleeton.

As for the Big 8 conference, i'll let someone from that conference do the job.

I'm pretty curious to see if my predictions are correct. for the 3pt contest, i have:
Han Wu(Obira), De Piano( Ventola), Van Baal ( Falco), Subic (Falco), Pelin (Boes) And Mogollon ( Falco)

i'm surprized that Ottevaere didn't make SF. He played their the most ammount of minuters, not to mention that his ratings were better than anyone elses at the SF spot...

Vercaigne and Mees are a surprize. I though they had played at to many different positions... Our ideal division line up would be:
Thys - Deseure - Vercaigne - Mees - Fleeton ( and yes, those are all NT players :P)
