It happens when a. people train youngsters and have to give away games, b. cup gives or takes 1 or 2 wins depending on the draw, c. people buy at the end of the season like Bergkamp. You and J Dogs would have stayed up most seasons, especially without training or with some luck in the cup (J Dogs just needed 1 extra win during the season to avoid relegation altogether). Even the rankings in the EBBL are now so close that I just realised I'm now ranked 4 in England after being 10 or 9 most of the season.

In any case Bujalska is still salary controlled, so it would have been a great piece in D2. Incidentally D2 may be more profitable than D1 for non-promoted teams that are stuck in the middle of the conference with a relatively worse world and national ranking. D2 in Utopia was more profitable than D1 for me despite the fact that I was below the salary floor in D1.

Congratulations Vecx. Purovic still getting the stuff done at age 36, averaging over 40 min off the bench over the finals...

Thx all, GG Gully. No idea what happened to the Saturday game!!?!!??

I've decided to run the team into the ground and focus on training youth now. Hopefully the team won't be too easy to beat though.

Good luck for next season.

Yeah Purovic still has 120 tsp and is sitting on 19 experience so he is a very very very handy backup!!

I think its a Schroedinger's cat situation. It both happened and yet didn't happen all at the same time. The game was played, I believe with our tactics as we chose, (Princeton for you?), but for whatever reason never showed up on Saturday. The only person who could fix the problem was unavailable (even though this happens at least once every play off) and by the time he realised something was up (no one told him? really?) the data was lost. So the game shows up as both of us playing base, and mtm. This is undoubtedly not correct but is simply the game replacing the lost data as best it could.

Did it have an effect on game 3? Undoubtedly. I wouldn't have predicted slow and outside. However, I don't believe that would have done anything to the result except delay garbage time. Its the offence that stunk on Sunday, not the D. Also, I was able to watch the replay of the game before the box score showed up. I'm not sure if I could have done that before a quarter to seven but I suspect I could have, and so there's blame I have to accept for the wrong prediction.

Really disappointed that my players' career stats on buzzer manager are now incomplete, and will remain so for as long as I or buzzer manager is going. Might not matter to others but its something that adds to the game for me. Plus, it was the only time we played well.

I played Inside Iso and predicted Low Post if I remember right, saving enth and hoping that the GDP was right. I knew that if I had lost, I had game 3 with likely more enthusiasm to rely on.

Really gutted about the career stats too!

That explains my 60 points in the first half. I played motion and guessed low post. I was saving enth too and hoping you might risk crunching to win in 2. It seemed unlikely but I was reduced to flimsy hopes by then.
