Yeah, I've gone ahead and shut my scouting department down. I think I'll just start hoping for good luck in the draft. I get good prospects in the draft, I can either sell and make a +$ to my cash flow or keep and train. I released two my picks from last season and my third pick right now is looking to be headed to the TL real soon.

me and Divine came from the same D. IV league too... I'm gonna miss him...
I've been in this league with virtually the same team, getting thrashed by bigger teams like Locomotive Atlanta, NHCr, Scrap..
what suck is that many of the winners of this league got relegated then whipped up on us smaller fry's . .


I used to kick RR's butt till one day he just got strong and thus moved on..

vets will remember drooling over a player named "Jody Ortega".. we all wished we had one..and the draft quality was wayyyyy better..

I think I came into this league at the same time he was transferred out. From everything I had read about Ortega, I was very grateful that he did not come into this league.

What team did he play for, because I would love to pull his HGS numbers and see how he fared against the competition this season. If he's everything I have read about, then he should blow most of these players out.

he played for Killer Bruises ...he was on the national team..

another beast in this league, Unrepentant Gunners bought him.

Well this sucks, for some reason my backup PG/SG is also my backup PF tonight. Guess setting one's lineup on a cell phone can lead to mistakes. I just hope it doesn't cost me the game.

Looks like you came out of that one ok! maybe found a secret weapon??

In my game vs dragons the score at the end of the first was 30-12 and the score of the 4th qaurter only was 12-29. My starters played most of the 1st quarter, and only subs played the 4th quarter, while all of dragons starters played almost the entire 4th. This means that my starters were 1 pt differencial better against the dragons starters than the dragons starters against my subs. That it sad, dragons really need to do something about their team.

Good work goats on carmona keeping him to 19 pts, that way with barr only scoring 15pts i dont think he'll drop on the ppg list

I held my own in this. Was down 83-82 with 8 minutes left in the Fourth, then the roof fell in. Well, it looks like Div. IV for me next season.

Maybe, but Braden played 41 damn minutes and I'm trying to get his GS up. Oh, well. The race in teh "not so" Great 8 is getting juicy. Goats seem like they're in.

Regular season is almost over and still almost nothing decided yet.

After taking the first seed, Booshes have no intention to give it back and cruise past Flyers 109-93.

Cresleys will have to win both remaining games to avoid relegation after losing to Hawks 98-113.

Gavno beat Knicks and increased the point difference between Illusion in a very tight title race, 100-78.

Illusion pulled an easy victory over Dragons, 94-77, but they might regret their below-par 4th quarter effort. (12-29) Dragons are officially relegated.

Race for 3rd place in Big 8 is over. Cleveland did a great job against Tachenko, 103-89. They seem like a very dangerous playoff team. Tachenko's 4th playoff spot is now at jeopardy.

Goats are recovering. They almost clinch 3rd spot thanks to the stylish road win against Investors, 86-100. Investors are now down to 5th.

Steppers grabbed a big big win @ Bangers and climbed to 4th, 72-76. Despite still having a shot on 4th spot Bangers will probably play the relegation series with a homecourt advantage.

Rip City and Magic played for a possible homecourt in relegation series at Portland. Rip City surprisingly CT'd and Magic TIE'd but this is still a huge win for Oregonians, 111-76.

Player of the day is Bangers big man Colin Gabriel with 35 pts, 23 rbds and 3 asts.

Games to watch on Tuesday are Rip City @ Flyers, a match up that can affect relegation and play offs, and Gavno @ Goats.

Always love the analysis, thanks for doing it. Do not prefer to give the player of the day to a guy on a losing team in a critical match, however*.

Not saying his performance wasn't grand, just saying that his team needed to win this game and they dropped it. So perhaps player of the day should go to one of the other players who won.


Incidently, any of you following the thread in BB-USA regarding the u21 team? I seem to be catching a lot heat for suggesting that the u21 team and its selection criteria should be made a little more transparent in an effort to educate the dumb users of the US like me who still don't know what they're doing.

Am I way off base on this? It seems so logical to me but it appears that my suggestion has offended some people and they're being overly dismissive of my thought process. I trust that you guys might take anything I say with a grain of salt in case I said something that may have been in a tone of condescenscion and can appreciate that I trully am a newbie asking for some direction.

EDIT: To link the thread in question in case any of you want to take a look (130717.1)


* I may be biased about that player of the day thing considering it was a guy who had a monster day against MY team. ;-)
