I went 22-0 and blew out this team at home in the regular season. Then I lose at home. I had Home court too. Game 2 is making me nervous. I played the exact same tactics and had pretty good enthusiasm. What should I do?

Don't have a bum that runs a 5.5 at SF in a playoff game.

Seriously though, why do you only have a 6 man roster going into the Playoffs... One of your players is even injured to make things worse.

Furthermore your GS isn't great as a hole. Only one starter has Proficient GS, 2 Strong, 2 Respectable and the last one is injured so he doesn't even matter.

What Enthusiasm did you play with and was your effort POCT or PON?

Just glancing at the game you lost, everything looked well balanced and could've gone either way. Although you did have a bigger advantage at the boards so maybe it was just a combination of bad luck, poor GS and a HORRIBLE SF.

Well I'm in debt and had to cut guys. It was too bad my starting PF was hurt. I have 8 enthusiasm and did Crunch time. The game really came down to like 2 or 3 possessions and my guys were missing dunks and stuff that usually don't happen against me happen. I think I had some bad luck. I made some defensive switches so hopefully that helps

Well that's a real tough one then. You both played POCT and you ended up losing at home. So now you have to decide whether or not you can pull off a game 3 by POCT'ing again or chance a PON to boost your Enthusiasm. That's a toughy.

It's good that you're making tweaks on the match-ups because you can't let his SF dominate you like that again.

All in all I wish you luck and all the best.

I'm going to be honest. You have no chance. You only have 5 players and one of them is a scrub. You literally have no bench. You will likely get swept. Prepare for next season. You have a nice pg though , perhaps a u-21 guy.

Check the Suggestions they are important

I think you're wrong. His starting SG is hurt so maybe its a little more even. I think if some things bounced I would've won game 1. I really believe we can still win it all and just because my SF salary is 3000 doesn't mean he's terrible. He had 16 points on 50 percent shooting, 7 rebounds, and no turnovers.

You're running out a 6 man lineup, 1 of them injured, and absolutely killed your gameshape in the process so I think you're done like dinner. Heck, you're one foul out or injury from playing 'lucky fan' big minutes in a finals game. Who the hell puts themselves in such a position after going 22-0?

To be perfectly blunt, in the future stop playing with a 6 man roster, learn the HUGE importance of gameshape and enthusiasm and you won't run into the same problems.

His starting SG missed almost the entire game Tuesday and he still crushed you.

You're going to lose by 20+ on Saturday. Sorry, but it's over. Sad way to end your season but honestly, what did you expect when you've only got 5 healthy players?

Next time you have financial problems, I would cut bigger salaries and keep your depth. Managing gameshape and enthusiasm effectively with lower salaries is far more important than having high salaried players. In fact, this is exactly how your opponent is beating you.

My enthusiasm is better. He didn't TIE or PON at all while I did it all the time so its higher. I know I messed up on gameshape but I was in debt and has no choice. I'm still confident. The way you guys make it sound is like I'm going to get blown out

It's too late now, but I would have told you to train gameshape this week since it's so low. Looking at your roster, I'm guessing that you didn't.

And yes, I'm afraid you are going to get blown out. If he beat you by 12 in your building he should beat you by 20+ in his. Your enth. advantage is probably minimal at best and offset by his homecourt advantage and his huge gameshape and depth advantages.

But you're 22-0, you might promote anyways.
