Eh, smoke and mirrors. I still agree with your preseason assessment. I got all of the top teams at home the first two-thirds, including you. I got rebuilding teams on the road, and questionable teams during weeks when they had a tournament match that needed more than scrubs. I didn't play anyone tough in the tournament until after I picked up the $1.30 during AS week. My ego loves the sound of a "15-1 juggernaut", but I can't let a lucky schedule dictate what I want to do or when I want to do it. I don't want to deal with restructuring the team, playoffs, and possible promotion during the middle of December, with the caveat that I did almost add a 150 TSP player (49152695) into the salary I freed up as recently as a few days ago.

...and tried to sell his 3rd best player too...


This part... may be debatable

That's very disciplined, hats off to you for not getting sucked into the fun of a 15-1 start and sticking to the course for what's best long-term.

You know best if Pagan is your 3rd bets guy. I was surprised to see how much OD he had on him as a PF!

I was cursing the BB gods for my scheduling luck this season. I had to play the top 4 teams in the Big 8 all on the road (based on records at the end of inter-conference play). Made for a grueling attempt to get the auto-promo slot to NBBA. As of now, it looks like I will get it if I can win out. There is 1 other D2 team with a single loss (Resurrected Fury) but I have a good buffer on PD. If I hadn't lost to 10inch verticals though I would have a much less stressful final 4 games of the regular season.

Great 8 playoff spots pretty locked in early.

Top 3 of both conferences looks pretty locked in. Chance Stark can sneak back into the 4th seed even after last night's loss to Mambas. They'd need to beat Lions on the road, doable now that they've sold off a lot of players.
