Here we are, down to the Final Four. I was hoping to gain an edge by saving my enthusiasm in the first round, but it looks like that's what all of us did.

I don't know what's going to happen the rest of the way, but there's not going to be any easy victories.

It comes down to this. Yea, the only surprise of the first round was Putxus! Authoritative wins all around. Both games should be really exciting.

The next 2 rounds are going to be very, very interesting. Records aside, I tend to get out-thought by my opponents... guess my coaches just don't do enough prep work ;-)

Best of luck to everyone!

The action is pretty intense right now!

Halftime update:

Rogues 39
Cliff Hangers 42

Cliff Hangers jumped out to an early 10 point lead and held it for a long time, but the Rogues went on a run halfway through the 2nd to make this a tight game.

Key stats:

Rogues have 0 made field goals outside of the paint.
Abdelkadar Bouchama was a house of fire to start the game, making 6 of his first 7 shots. He's gone cold now, missing his last 8 field goals.

Georgia 41
Ballus 42

Georgia held a slim lead for most of the first half, but Ballus was finally able to overtake them at the end of the 2nd quarter.

Heartbreaking loss. 0 shots made outside the paint is just pitiful. This game also marked the end of the line for Clint Aponte. He had a good career and it will be sad moving on without him.

Cliff Hangers vs. Ballus should be a great Finals. I don't know if Ballus will be able to overcome that stifling defense. I'd say this series definitely goes all three games.

This playoffs has certainly lived up to its billing. Georgia and Rogues played great. This should be an exciting finals.

Nice job picking my focus and pace. Had me worried at half but I got lucky and pulled out the home game... we'll see how this next one goes :)

Haha thank you, now its my turn. That was a tight one! One possession game with under a minute left. Round one down, two to go. Grats on the MVP.

Wow - THAT one was a nail biter. Good game, right down to the wire in OT.

I thought Ballus was on their way to a comfortable win when they had that double digit lead early in the 4th, but the Cliff Hangers made a nice comeback to force OT. I'm sure Romanovich was screaming in frustration after Eaton missed those free throws at the end to keep the game within reach.

Congrats to Ballus on the championship!
