Well coached! Stealing one from a better ranked team is always nice!

I will try to manage Åkerstens' form a bit better. He´s not easy to coach tho, a sucker for hogging minutes on the court. He keeps: "Naaah coach, I feel fresh, about to hit a streak!. Keep me in" "Hey coach! Rested a minute, legs feel good, rookie out there mess things up. Put me back in!". All day long.

On the upside he gets a bit of free-ride-training this season, as i´m training my prospects in outside-skills. Hope to slow his decay a bit at least...

Nice win!

KÄMPA SVERIGE!!

With our victory (+16,3 pts) we moved up two ranks. Now we are in the fourth group ;) Croatia and Germany are in front of us, but it's only a short distance.

Great updates and very nice win yesterday!

Keep it up!

Reading everything you are posting with eager.

Great job, very nice updates both regarding the game, your thoughts about the player and the updates regarding the ranking.

And I'm looking forward to the discussion how to make Sweden a bigger and better NT country!

Keep it up!

Ich stimme zu, alles sieht sehr gut aus und es macht spass über die NT zu lesen.


(keep up the great work)

What the hell?!

We were for almost the whole game the better team, outrebounded them and than this stupid 3pt-scoring from Croatia! Boaahh... I'm really p...ed right now. That was again a very "interesting" game of the engine.

Without my wrong GDP, this would have been a win... Could kick myself for this

Game 3: Sweden (43) 119:124 Croatia (42)

This loss is on me. The wrong pediction caused a -7.5% on the OD of our players and in the end this lead to the meltdown in the fourth quarter. Without this the game was ours.
After I saw the game shape of Croatia, I was quite sure they would go inside. The RnG surprised me. They lost two players, got outrebounded and had a hard time against our defense... and still won -.- And the substitution was a mess today. But I know why now. And this shouldn't happen again.

This loss takes us in a quite "akward" position. If this goes wrong, Poland will go for a 7:0 and behind them there will be 3 teams with 4:3... and one with a 5:2. And we have to go for this 5:2. Our next game is against Danmark and the other teams (Poland, Slovenia and Croatia) ahve to play against each other during the next games. So from the four teams which fight for second place, we have the "easiest" decission: win all games!
The other three have to poker for there enthusiasm and so on. I really wanted this victory today, but the loss doesn't eliminate us from the Euro. For this our group is too deadly balanced.

A quick look at our guys:
MVP of the team: Akersten. He scored like a young god among mortals. 65.4% FG as a SG is awesome. I would take this scoring from him every week.

Stat line of the night: Widerström. During the first half it looked like Widerström was going for a quadruple double. 15 rebs, 7 assists and 7 blocks paired with 25 pts showed his true potential and usability.

Teamwork: 4 players with at least 11 rebs... STRONG!

What I miss: JR and free throw. These are the last parts for this team to be freaking balanced. I really hope that during the next reasons there will emerge players which can take this team around Widerström to a higher level.

Despite losing we managed to improve our points. This week we couldn't move up and are still in 23th place. Germany is only 0,2 pts in front of us.

YES!!! Third place in our group and it's possible that we will surpass Germany and Croatia.

Great game! You really squeeze great performances out of every player.
