Yeah, I run inside ISO every few games... don't really recommend it. My Center shot 0-8 from behind the arch. Lmao. I'm guessing he couldn't get to the hoop so he forced up 3's. Anyways, Outside Iso is one of my favorites. If you have a good SF/PF combo -- this offense works wonders.

The Big 8 has gone 5-3 two weeks in a row now. Not sure what the complete standings for interleague play are, but it may be closer than I originally thought. A lot of action the last 2 games. Dong took his first loss. Pimps got their first win. East Gary took down Flash Mashers. Traptors took down Cathar in an away game.

East Gary has now won 6 straight. Swansons won 5. Natellio 4. Biggest losing streak is a tie between Lengends and The Door Mats at 4 straight.

Power Rankings
1. Dong Energy, 20.220. The loss was backed up by a big win and losses from both Flash and Cathar. Dongs hold at #1.
2. Flash Mashers, 18.205. Has a huge big man. The guy is expensive and old. And 0-1 in a Flash Mashers uni. We'll see if he's enough.
3. Cathar Heretics, 16.105. Still right there and only a game back from the #1 seed. Still has Flash Mashers away.
4. East Gary Eagles, 10.884. Slowly but surely catching up to the Big 3. Should win out in interleague play.
5. Toronto Traptors, 8.473. Huge win at Cathar. Don't sleep on them come tournament time.
6. Ron Swanson, 6.413. Has won 5 straight. Is 9-3 and in FOURTH. That sucks.
7. Extra Crispy, 1.488. When Mayberry is healthy, Crispy can run with the best.
8. Natellio, -2.062. Has won 5 of 6 since Tough told me I was going to relegate.
9. Lake Charles, -3.963. Won two straight. Still chasing the playoffs.
10. Jack Acid, -7.469. Good win @ Lengends i nwhat could be a relegation preview.
11. Door Mats, -8.888. Lost 4 straight. Still, in 5th as no one in the bottom half of the Great 8 seems to want to win.
12. Eclypze, -9.226. Lurking.
13. Pimps in Training, -9.256. Puting up good ratings, but can't seem to get any W's out of it.
14. Lengends, -10.469. Got some cash now. Needs to make some moves.
15. 2 Left Feet, -11.087. Struggling, but has a good chance of getting out of that 8 spot.
16. Marshland Mammals, -19.405. Doesn't have the horses right now. We'll see if he makes a move. Still tied for 5th, so maybe too early to give up?

EDIT: Great 8 leads the Big 8 22-18 in interleague wins. With 3 weeks to, it's possible for the Big 8 to pull it out. 2 of those weeks will @ Big 8 arenas. COME ON GUYS!!

Flash Mashers... Has a huge big man. The guy is... 0-1 in a Flash Mashers uni. We'll see if he's enough

I think there will be a big difference once I get back to LI and use Mansour and Zarko at the same time. I got complacent I figured I'd roll over East Gary. Big mistake.

I think you're right. Certainly too early to say it was a failure!

But... with an average age of 32 on your two starting bigs, hope you get what you want!

Yeah, my team is pointless without Bolek. I'm just glad it was only a game injury.

Gah... really?? I can't catch a break! That was a very risky CT but I guess it gave you exactly the right result... can't believe I lost after putting up those ratings. This was not supposed to be a four loss season.

now u and Traptors are tied for 1st


Advantage: Toronto Traptors (cause they won)

Leader: Chekreyes (cause you got better PD)

Cool thing: Dong Energy is about to clinch Home Court full dvantage.

nice

Yeah it was a bit of a gamble, but I felt like it was the right move. Certainly glad it paid off with the win, especially after my two bigs fouled out early. Watching the game live was a real nail biter. I just didn't think we would pull it out without the CT though, and the final score probably confirms that. I admit I was kind of surprised your squad didn't normal, to be honest?

I figured you'd either TIE and save enthusiasm or else play Normal. I didn't expect the CT and figured I could beat you on a Normal vs TIE at home. After losing to East Gary I lost all hopes for total HCA and now I just need to stay ahead of Toronto in order to have HCA for the first two rounds.
