Eastern Conference AKA Big 8: It's probably gonna come down to Sin & Reno. I have a feeling Sin is holding something back, either an offensive style or a lineup change. Reno may have it a bit easier since if Lakeland makes it and it looks like they have a good chance unless the Toxins have figured out something about Reno that I haven't (or if the Gamblors decide to just rest up). The Gamblers though may give the Toxins all they have since they will have an easier time in the PO against the Express since money troubles have whittle their lineup significantly ...

That said ...
Big 8 1st Round
The Gamblers roster is older but their experience will push them over the hump: 103-75 if they play the Toxins, 115-40 if they play the Express

The Warriors are one of the best defensive teams in the league but Sinwell's bigs have more firepower and experience, Sinwell 97-85

Big 8 Conference Finals:
Sinwell unleashes the hounds and the high intensity of their play edges them over the Gamblors' experience 110-106

Great 8 1st Round
Rip City have lived up to their name but the Dark Knicks of Gotham have too many weapons and will be too well rested: Gotham 120-80

This will be the dogfight of the playoffs, the wccn will lay some smack down in the first half, but mattia have been tested and bested good defenses all season and when the dust settles will be the one standing after a 97-85 win.

Great 8 Conference Finals
Mattia will give it all they got, but the Knicks will prevail 103-97

League Finals:
Sinwell managed to play an ace to get to the finals but the Knicks will have had time to prep for it and win out 110-99. Gotham will give one last speech wishing us all luck before moving up to the next level while the rest of us plan for next season.

Coach I think i fall in love with you. Its really rare finding someone who keeps so alive a forum. Thank you dude! ;)

Those are great analysis but I will be back with you guys next season. I am picking mitta to win it all and easily to. Not sure if you guys notice but mitta has put a crazy pay roll team during the year and he has to talent to be beat. That is my pick for this year and we will be back at it next year I have no money to make any moves its been like that for the hole year.

Crazy payroll and salary team does not necessarily means a good and well built team. I may have good inside players, but outside i'm one of the worse. Gotham you undoubtly got the most balanced team, with great players in every position. And so for Reno and Sinwell, who does not have bench on the other side.

Are you serious? You averaged for the season 114 points a game. Scored a 100 points against the Warriors, Mattia, the Blackhawks, Sinwell, & Reno. Probably the 5 best defensive teams in the league! You have four players who from seeing other games can play two or more spots easy. Now granted the end of your bench may not be all that but who needs it when your starters are giving 20 point cushions for the bench.

Oh I get it now. He's Jedi Mind tricking us Matti. That's what he's trying to do lol

Of course we won't know any of this till next week. Since I have every intention of making myself wrong and sending Sinwell home lol

Lol I think it will be close but u guys must of forgotten that mitta and I played after he got his team together. I did lose that game so am giving him the edge in the playoffs. Listen I hope am wrong and I do win we soon shall find out.

Oh EXL28 I appreciate your thoughts about me, the Jedi Mind Trick or trash talking is always good. And its true indeed that i won last match we played, but cmom, PO are a different thing. You are in the game from so more time than me, you know that. In the end I hope you are right, but i dont think so. You will fight against Reno for the final win, thats it!
(Even because right now im more excited for B3 predictions than PO, there im 1st worldwide! ;) )

I find it interesting you say you're terrible outside offensively yet the matchup between you and the Knicks, you used an outside offensive tactic and was able to pull an easy win.

I said it concerning salary. He got P-G with 40k salaries, i got a G with 14k, so he is undoubtly stronger

Am going to give it my best shot but your front court is to dominant vs mine to much money compared to mine your going to crush me inside. If my team wins it will be a huge upset your SF is 20k more then mine. Its funny that you point out my back court advantages but leave out all your clear cut advantages. I say your team wins anywhere from 8-20 points don't down play your teams dominance.

Looks like Mattia is the first to be hit with the injury cheese. This is the time when the playoffs actually become interesting. Good luck to y'all.
