Finals HCA: can I open my present now? (g)


Still time for your team bus to get hit by a meteor.

Actually laughed when I read this

When we were all talking about the Jason CT I had already planned on doing it and that just made it better. I'm simply glad I won because holy frik that was closer than I thought it was going to be.

Now I just hope my players sell.

Edit: Wow. Irby was +14 in as many minutes, and your started SF was -17. Glad you didn't start Irby.

I don't mind losing facing a Crunch on the road, but I certainly don't like losing the way we did in this one. Open up our biggest lead of the game at 91-81 with just over two minutes to play and carry that lead into the final two minutes...Not very often a team has a double digit lead late in the game like that and ends up losing only shooting a total of 2 FT's as their lead is disappearing. Ohhh well :-) I wish your team just blitzed us to start the 4th quarter and put the game away instead of having the game all but won, and losing it like that! I didn't expect to win going in, and then when I saw you Crunched I knew we'd lose...so to be so close and lose it like that will sting for a while!

Yeah, I was pretty pleased with that...not bad as well for a $19K player to put up an 18 rating at SF :-) I almost did...but I didn't want to mess with my training...but knowing you would play outside tactics, I thought about starting him at SF because Irby and Estes are my two best outside defenders.

The fact that the game was so close is yet another nail in the coffin of my dreams of being a competitive team while running outside offenses. Admittedly my RnG was telegraphed due to several games of either not caring enough or forgetting to change my tactic.

Hmm...

thanks, but i am now very convinced the ratings weigh the Cup too heavily -- i plummeted last season when A-Dub knocked me out early, and the same thing has happened this season with Jason. i do think the ratings get one thing right: the distance between A-Dub and the rest of the USA.

see other comment -- and remember, you are here and they are not.

Looks like Soto went for 1.5, you missed out on a steal!

I don't know,,,,old expensive dude, who's not on the NT team, who commits twice as many fouls per game than he get's Assists, Steals combined...I think a great team like Eugene did well not going after him.

Yeah personally I think the guy overpaid for him but Eugene thought he'd go for more
