Congrats to Coach Dean on reaching the final four

Thanks.

everybody thought the all mighty upsyndrome is gon dominate forever so a lot of teams decide to rebuild. but surprisingly upsyndrome decided to rebuild as well.

so everyone in the NBBA is rebuilding+tanking?

all 16 teams can't relegate though...

Keep in mind, Marshland is running with the exact same roster they had when they were in the NBBA last season...so it's not like they are a typical D2 team....That said, of course all 16 NBBA teams are not tanking rebuilding...but its impossible to put 100% effort into both league games and the cup game each week without killing Game Shape....that is what creates the opportunity for a non-NBBA to win once in a blue moon...Also, as it turns out, some of the better NBBA teams had some tougher cup draws earlier in the tournament and may have gambled with their roster and got knocked out early.

Flash Mashers had a significant injury, and poor game shape from running with just 6 and 7 players for the whole season...It was the perfect storm for Marshland to win....They deserve a lot of credit, and huge praise for such an accomplishment...that said, my personal belief is that game was the 1 in 10 that Marshland would beat Flash Mashers with all things being the same if they played 10 times.

It's an incredible accomplishment...not an indictment of the NBBA. Congrats to Coach Dean!

That Monday when you log in after being eliminated from the playoffs and expect to have your draft picks only to find out there's still a week in the season.

A couple of interesting notes, Flash Mashers finished the game with a Lucky Fan and it went from 88-77 with 1:30 left to 99-96. 30 points in 90 seconds!

Marshland went from an 11 point lead with 90 seconds left to almost being tied at the buzzer.

Yeah, the end of that game was a little fishy. I led by double digits almost the entire game.

I'm a bit late but congrats on winning the cup. A great accomplishment! ;)
