Can't be. He's logged in today.

Also, you were very unlucky yesterday. I stole that one near the end.

Your team deserved to win. I have not managed to pay enough attention to my team lately and I am quite likely to go down this season... That would be a disaster as I do not enjoy division II at all! I knew he had not gone bot, I was just mucking about. Thank you for replying though.
Good luck to all! 👍

Good game js8, you got me back for the cup :)
Figured that new C was enough for you today, especially after Saturday's game, you needed him to give yourself a proper chance to win it all though! I looked for a reinforcement or two myself but didn't find any for the right price (low seed, no point overpaying...). Also considering throwing the game on Saturday for a while but eventually decided I prefer potentially winning and playing Vecx instead...guess we'll see soon who might be the better team.

A 1-3-1 zone win for Los Mik? Nice!

I'm hoping to come back better next year (but as usual I'm stuck between training youngsters and wanting to win aren't I?). Before I ramble too much...good luck all in the conference finals.

You thoroughly deserved the cup tie and because of that, I never felt easy going into our game tonight despite HCA.

I definitely needed a big man if I want to win EBBL, I didn't have enough with Needham at PF.

Look forward to seeing you go big next season, makes this side of the conference very interesting.

Interesting finals matchup - Wasps haven't lost at home all season (save for a reserves vs reserves match) but are arguably the easiest 'elite' team in the league to beat via tactics, being so limited in scoring. And OPF can be a bit hit and miss but on a good day can beat anyone away from home.
Bet the under in game 1!
Should be good to watch and hard to watch at the same time!!!
*Grabs popcorn*

GL to both teams, you've both had impressive seasons

First things first: thanks!

You've no idea how hard I tried to lose that game. It was all star week the week after, I was playing the Fibres again and I wanted the certain league win more than the Cup win and extra fixture. I've had one thought since about 3 games in; get home advantage.

I don't really enjoy the anti basketball I play, but its what we're good at. Its certainly not easy to watch, even for me.

And OPF can be a bit hit and miss but on a good day can beat anyone away from home.

I think the player he added changes that significantly as I don't think he's likely to be hit and miss now.

Looking at the two rosters my highest paid player would only be the 6th highest paid on the Fibres. (Getting my excuse in early there.) My backups are probably slightly better but that's not of significant value here. I'd make Fibres a big favourite if I was neutral, I don't think home court tips the scale enough to overcome the massive salary difference. It wouldn't have been as big if I'd been able to sign someone myself, but all season I kept missing players for various reasons. Mostly long term value.

Good luck js.
