overconfident or didnt care?

Sure, there are times when certain risks are justifiable. This is not one of them... It is clear that I have little respect (you could even go as far as saying none) for meateors, but when there is no chance of winning the semis you might as well smash the quarters regardless of the opponent... This is god punishing me for tanking!

Breaking my self imposed embargo just to say, that is exactly why I played the way I did.

Congratulations! Your opponent takes it easy on you and eek out a win...

In team ratings you beat him in outside d to outside scoring (because he had inside tactics) and rebounding when he crushed you in everything else. In match up ratings you marginally had him at pg when he dominated the others. Sure the score was somehow your way but looking at those stats to guess a winner you would not be considered.

I told you previously how you rely on charity and this is my proof.

God hates tankers. this is God's way of punishing you and me! hehe

Letting Meateors go through to the next round with lower enthusiasm and paying two weeks salary is already a punishment.

Charity or not, it was a calculated risk on my part. I rather lose while trying to reserve enthusiasm for next round than win with a lower enthusiasm. Too bad I couldn't pull an upset somewhat due to overconfidence and negligence. Ignoring the team ratings, I should have taken more care of his C, SG and SF, they were the scoring machines and only a 3-2 would have stop those 3pts from falling in. Game shapes was also a main winning factor. So if you look at tactics and game shape management, Meateors owned me. With his knowledge and experience, I am interested to see what Meateors can pull off in the next round or he's just another pretender like me? lol

hard to see past the Cowboys, they're on a mission to ABBL this season and with Meteors Crunching against you, I'd think that Cowboys will be impossible to beat now.

thx & i agree u had to take a risk v snuffmovie & i may well do something a bit crazy 2

sure not going 2 just play his game & lose by 20

fatbuy look like u went all in while holding a pair of 7s, not a complete bluff but really needing a lot of luck

if i was u id love 2 see cowboys promote, like jw said, wanna c then again next season?

& someone is getting a d3 instead of canberra & someone is getting hopelessly addicted who is broke & will take seasons 2 recover - but adams or avalon would suck - so it is a good 50/50 shot of a good relegation

my injury luck continues - lost the wang 4 3 weeks early in the season & now my other trainee is out for the rest of the season, and i lost my c & most expensive player 4 the rest of the season 2 - lol still probably a good time 2 lose him, wasnt beating snuffa and no pl games and gs will be fine next season so cant complain :)

Charity or not, it was a calculated risk on my part.

You risked a sure win to give yourself a minor help in a game you had no chance of winning. If you had the resources to challenge cowboys it could be a considered a calculated risk. The fact you risked winning for no reason means it can't.

With his knowledge and experience, I am interested to see what Meateors can pull off in the next round

Lol! He is only there because I tanked and you semi tanked. Even then it was only unnecessary recklessness that got him through. Cowboys will show him what he is capable of.
