Why arent you at the Bobcats game? They're losing because you're not there...

Goats break a 6-game skid with after Lorenzo Capps dropped a baseline jumper over Braden at the last second to steal the victory from the re-surging divinedragons. This shot by Capps came after Bumbal tried to send the game into overtime by hitting Braden with the assist for a 3-pt shot from the wing with 8-seconds left.

Goats finally break the skid at 6 games with a 105-103 victory on the road.

Chow trumped Mina by hitting the game winner with 0 seconds on the clock to notch the win.

Jesus Christ Prov City Investors, if youre just going to roll over and play dead like that warn me before the game. You seemed to put less than nothing in our game. I could have TIE and moved players around for training purposes had you told me you werent going for a win.

Ahhh the beauty of buzzerbeater never know what is going to happen, when a manager CT's or TIE's you. Crazy but we have all been there!

Yeah managers do some crazy things when they don't have to actually talk face to face to their players, for example throw away games. who wants to play for a manager that has such little confidence in the teams abilities that they dont even give the team a chance to win. (I know its just a game that people play for fun, i just got a little angry there)

Hey I understand but in this game especially it is a game of enthusiasm and game shape so it appears Prov did not think he would beat you and wanted to get the enthusiasm. Hey take it from me I lost to you in 5 OT's I wish I had had more enthusiasm then. lol and I TIE'd that game if I remember. Anything can happen.

I had zero chance even with my starters in there. Is it OK to communicate a mutual TIE? I don't wan't to do something unethical!

can't be more unethical than throwing a game :). Yeah its probably not a good idea to have teams telling each other that they will TIE, that could end up with a whole division taking every game easy untill playoffs so that everyone has elevated enthusiasm

1. E.C. High-Flyers looked very impressive in their win against Hawks. Hawks did put less into the game, but that still doesnt make it an easy win congrats.

2. KA-BAAM Avalos just shot to the top of the rpg this week. He went from not on the list to #1. The reason: he hadnt played the minimum games to be able to be on the list. I would have had the #1 and #2 spot for most rpg but Statovci dropped a lot after only picking up 4 rebounds in a game that he barely played because my opponent didnt put up a fight. It's weird how after every team has played one another and the Illusion big men have proved they aren't the best, they still managed to be high on the rpg list.

3. We are going into the home stretch towards playoffs now, and its now or never (or next season) for teams to make it to a playoff spot or a non-relegation spot. I'm excited to see how the playoff matchups end up, especially now that the first place side on both the great 8 and big 8 are in heavy contention.

Honestly guys, I have been in communicato for the past week or so about TIE vs NORM with my opponenets. I think because back in season 4 when I started, my league did it, and I've done it ever since. There are definitive ethical boundaries we can draw within the game, but I do not believe that wanting to help other owners while not hurting yourself is unethical. Make sense?
