Well, I would agree somewhat with you there. Probably too much weight is placed on a team's Cup run, but the rankings are not totally meaningless. Your ranking, for example, is a very solid one and is probably pretty much spot on.

Now take a look at those records. 10-11's and 11-10's. Seems pretty average to me. Losing record vs Great 8, that's not even average. And you can't even blame Contortionists for the uneveness, we have TUG. How can this even be disputed?


2nd through 6th all being 10-11 and 11-10 implies parody, not necessarily that they are all average.

If you throw out games that Jelme and TUG took part in, the Big 8 went 22-27 in IL play. That's a difference of 2.5 games which is small imo. Maybe I'm cherry picking as there are only 49 games, but that seems like a reasonably close margin and implies that the leagues are about the same.

Meh, my team is mediocre at best right now. I have 4 decent trainees, and that was difficult in the NBBA. Figuring out how to build a bankroll and players at the same time is difficult.

Please sir. You are barely ahead of us. And 10-11 > 8-13 no? So half your conference is less than mediocre?



Not to mention you'd likely be above .500 right now if Amorrortu wasn't injured or in shit GS for the first 3 weeks of the season.

I think mine's a bit high, but whatever. Look at the NBBA. Wake is ranked #7 in the country with a losing record (best case scenario has him winning 9 of 22 league games) and will most likely play a relegation playoff. Southsound, on the other hand, has the same record as Wake, will likely end the season in 5th and is ranked #35 in the country. Ridiculous.

Good luck to the 4 tomorrow. I'm rooting for some more than others :) But I hope there are some sweet games in the very least!


Yes good luck to everyone tonight

Well, my only center just fouled out in the 2nd, so no playoffs for me.

How close to the record is 45 free throw attempts?

Man I just looked at the box score more closely/watched a little bit of the game. 2 fouls in <1 minute? Frankly, I'm disappointed I didn't win by more playing against guards.
