Same thing happened in my league, I was the #4 seed pulled off 2 upsets just to get to finals, lost game one in OT on a last second 3, and then he tanked the next 2 games to give me the title. A) i will win at D-4, I just think that something should be done for tanking a finals. They have changed tanking into a 4th, 5th and 6th seeds, why not have repercussions for tanking the playoffs?

The problem was also that they didn't have a default lineup set. (the "Make this the Standard Line-up" option). BB should really force all teams to have one.

Another game that can catch people by surprise is the Tuesday Cup game during all-star week. So just a heads up if you make it that far.

Finishing in 5th, or even 6th, used to be a lot better financially than finishing in 3rd or 4th.
There's no incentive or financial advantage to throwing game 3 of the finals. So I doubt anything will be done.
