I don't understand this at all. If you beat someone in the head-to-head matchups, particularly if there's a home and home, then you're the better team and deserve the higher seed.


Does this mean that if an 18-4 beats a 20-2 team twice they should get the seed? No, because the overall performance throughout the season of the 20-2 team was better. I know we are talking about tie-breakers, but the logic is the same with points differential, imo.


Obviously the answer is no. The most important thing is overall win/loss record. The number of points a team wins by is, frankly, insignificant in my opinion. And I realize that's just my opinion.

If the BBs are going to keep point differential as the tiebreaker, then I think it's pretty important that they implement a "run up the score" option.

the other teams have also problems to "destroy" opponents, so it takes on a way fair only the last games become a bit silly. because you stop scoring, before you have the necessary points but this could happen in a head to head comparision too, even when the chanche isn't that high.

Doing it plus/minus points seems really odd to me - is that how they do it in Europe or something?

That's how they do it just about anywhere under FIBA rules.

When you or your opponent don't lineup enough players and the match is cancelled...

I do.

I disagree with them, if you didn't notice.
Your disagreement is on a personal level and is not of much interest.
But on the other hand: The ones that like to walk far away from Internet whole summer through, need to be sure that all lineups that might be broken by injuries, will not make too much damage.

Older than the rest ...

Hardly.

Many of my opinions either do not impact my team directly, or in some cases have directly been detrimental to my team and the USA NT.

But on the other hand: The ones that like to walk far away from Internet whole summer through, need to be sure that all lineups that might be broken by injuries, will not make too much damage.


If you "like to walk away from the Internet" for a whole summer, then perhaps an online management game isn't really an item of interest.

Wrong. I manage to have more than one interest in life ...

If you want to discuss something in a civil manner, be my guest.

If you want to lob false personal attacks, that will not be tolerated.
