Great ranking! I agree it should be wide open. I'd be thrilled to be a fringe playoff team again! I am not sold on my team either, but they are probably better than I am willing to admit.

I wonder if that average is lower because of the newly promoted teams.

I don't plan on making any roster moves right away. Sorry! But I don't think you should worry about my team in the first game. I think my team has won its league opener like 3 times ever in the 20+ seasons I've been playing.

Well guys, it's been fun, but I'll be promoting after this season. xD

It's nice to finally be in D.III. It only took me 18 seasons... Luck has not been on my side. Looking forward to playing and chatting with you guys.

Yo Frosty you rank me 13th. Not feelin the LUV DAWG!!!!! It will make the spanking I give you this year a lot SWEETER!!!!!

Think I'm high at 9. I need to build some young big guys so this will be my only season in D3 for now. I am going to train some young post players for a couple seasons and come back to D3 when they are ready.

i also agree that that is a LOW ranking for a playoff team, who beat some really good teams throughout his season. 12-10 in this League isn't something that should be overlooked. I look at the roster and having 2 24 yr old SGs its easy that with training throughout the year those players can improve. the roster has balance. I wouldn't have homeboyz that low. especially lower than teams that are promoting up from D4 who haven't proven anything. 12-10 in D3 i respect more than ANY D4 team.

Just my 2 cent

Our BB League III reporter Dickie Peters caught up with Philadelphia Phantasm point guard Timothy Fischer as he was exiting the teams training facilities.

Dickie: "Timothy, what can we expect out of Philly this year?"

Timothy Fischer: "A championship. Anything less than that and the season will be a failure. Obviously we have a talented group of guys and brought in some depth at the end of last season, so expectations are very high"

Dickie: " You're a stud in the regular season, but your playoff performances the last few seasons have led people to question your ability to perform in the big moment. How do you respond to that criticism?"

Timothy : "Next question"

Dickie: "So you won't answer the question?"

Timothy: "No Dick"

Dickie: "Who do you view as your biggest competition in the league this season?"

Timothy: "West Side Tigers is clearly a threat and they manhandled last season in the playoffs like no team has ever done before. We need to stay ahead of them in the standings this season, because home court advantage is huge come playoff time. I'm not worried about anyone else. We have the best back court in the league and some really solid big men, but I know management has a trump card up his sleeve, so I wouldn't be surprised if he brings in a huge front court presence to neutralize West Sides inside attack.

Dickie: "Thanks Timothy"

Timothy : "Later Dick"
