Well...finals are set. We know the I'm outta here next season and Cisowianka will be joining me. Is anywhere else going to make it out?


I hope so, since that would be me. Hopefully someone will go through the leagues and calculate that out soon.

According to this guy, you have 1 too many losses:

Unless I'm reading it wrong.




That's how I read it. Suppose it's just as well. I need to add people to make the IV salary floor next season, so moving up would have just made that worse.

Frick, the 7'5" guy was a HoF!!

I only had enough to do the scouting combine, group demo, and interview all the sucky 18yos. Pretty sure I got two of the best three, 5/3 guys.

I almost interviewed the 7'5" guy, but chose to use my last points on some lame 4/2 18yo. Still had that guy high on my draft order, even uninterviewed. Damn, wish I'd picked him now :P

Lol. I invested literally nothing. I'm interested to see where he was actually picked. =D

From memory, he was #5 in my draft order. He got scouted as part of the group demonstration, so I knew he was 7'5" and 5 ball, so I really wanted him. However, I wouldn't have forgiven myself if I'd let an 18yo 5 ball potential go, so I had to check all those first.

#1-#3 were all 5/3 18yo
#4 was a 4 ball 18yo, uninterviewed.
#5 was the 7'5" guy

in my draft order.

All I needed was one more week of scouting points! How lucky can you get - win the championship, and get the best draftee with the lowest pick in the order as well!

Trying to figure out what to do with him now. Lol. I wasn't prepared for this.

Sell him and hope to get a boatload? Train him with my other bigs?

Were you prepared to promote to II? I wasn't prepared to promote to III.

It appears to have been a bug. All Utopia teams are being returned to their original D.IV league and then the promotion will be run again. Check the latest Announcement.

Wow, atrocious all around. Yeah, I think sell is the right move to make, let him be someone else's problem. Surely someone out there willing to stump up for a tall HoF.

I have no idea what to do with mine as they don't seem compatible with each other ...

The way your guys rebounded today I half expected to see you with prominent/prolific rebounding. Scary weird. I didn't expect to be competitive this game anyhow, but it was odd all around - your rebounding was way above normal but you also got called for fouls the first three quarters whenever any fan sneezed.

Don't really know how to explain the rebounding myself, particular my backup SG getting 12 when the position was actually defending your PF. The defensive switch was based on Paju, but he barely played due to the foul problems you mentioned. Although 11 pts 14 rebs in just 16 minutes of play is very nice.
Given this was a week I thought I could easily go 0-2 in league play, I'm happy to already have made my goal of 1 win.
Two more forfeits in the league today. This makes three for Penatratory, so he's quickly losing draft spots. I was going to wonder if Big Red didn't just get caught by the early game time, but since it was his home game, that doesn't make sense.
