I have faith. I have faith in that were gonna lose. Lol. Just like the Cavs, were just over matched, out talented. All we got going is age on our side lol.
I'm definitely gonna set my team up to win, but if I was a betting man, my money wouldn't be on us lol.
If we do lose, this will be our 4th straight year losing in the first round....now I know what the Timberwolfs felt like back in the day lol.
Bombers
Saints
Are a for sure thing, and that's nothing against the New teams, they just haven't had the time yet to bring in the players they want.
I would favor Shocks, and I'm not sure how active their opponent is.
And Steel, with these four teams, I don't think anyone would disagree.

Saints could very will upset the Shock, they've done it in the past.
Bombers earlier this season beat the Guardian's, granted minus their big man, but still they won and this one is in Bomber country. Two very interesting games.

Honestly I feel better about the next round if I get there. We just beat them on their court last week on equal enthusiasm. Tonight I had to go on less just to keep pace so I'm worried I drop this one

Well, for a 4th season in a row, Minnesota Fair where foes, is out in the first round. Off-season has already begun in Minnesota, adding two veterans, to what we feel is already a good young cure. Next year, we look to continue our playoff streak, and possibly get out of the first round!!! Anything less would be a disappointment. Ed was excited when he heard about the new pickups his team has made for the up coming season, "I think, we finally have a championship contending team."
Ed, looks to be more involved in the offense this up coming season.

Playoff games for round 2-

Guardians @ Bombers - Guardians, have said they felt good heading into this game, they went into their arena and beat them a week ago, you can bet this has gotten back to the Bombers, will they use this as motativation???

Saints@ Shocks- should be an interesting matchup. I think it'll be close at half, shocks by 8. but in the second half, the shocks pull away with this one. As they look to go back to back, Great 8 champions

She Kunqiang is looking to make a last push as his career winds to an end. Look for him to be a major factor in this one.

Good Luck to those playing tonight for a chance at advancing to possibly D111. May the best teams win tonight

Nice win by the Shocks last night, winning at home and taken a 1-0 lead in the series. I wonder in the history of buzzerbeater, how many teams have come back and won it all after dropping game 1. I would guess the % is somewhere between 15-25...that's just a guess tho, i got nothing to back that up with lol

Been a great 2 years playing against a lot of you guys,you are some of the better and more active managers ive ever competed against, if you can win in this league you can compete against anyone in my opinion, good luck to you all.

Predictions for this up coming season???

I was wrong last season, i had the two teams in the finals, however, the Shocks went on to sweep Steel.

this season, I see the Sharks, making the playoffs for the first time in this league!!! their drought ends this season!!!
Steel
Bombers
and foes
(Steel makes their way to their second straight finals. They better win it all this season, because the window is closing on em quickly)
on the other side i see:

Shlubs
Eagles
Saints
AND....Mudcats!!!!

(The Saints edge out the Mudcats, by whiskers!!)

Finals: Saints top Steel

alright, so those are my picks for this up coming playoffs....I know nothing wild or crazy with any of those picks lol, ANYWAYS....now your turn, lets see if YOU can pick the winning team,

Thanks for the vote of confidence Timberwolf. Practice.....we're talking practice! Not holding my breath but got the fingers crossed. Good luck this season!

Your welcome, Shark Attack. Kick some Russell Westbrook butt tonight! That's nothing against his team, but your team is in line for big things this season, and because of that, this is a game you should and can win.

Off topic, but i gotta know one thing, and i highly doubt its just me.....How come when Russell Westbrook gets 10 rebounds, 10 assist and double digit points, he's not a team player and all this and that. remind you the Team won games!!!

on the other hand, in the finals, they talk about Lebron getting triple doubles, and how he's the best in the world *coughs* and his team lost 4-1???? Lebron couldn't get the job done, with a much more talented roster around him then westbrook. But we credit James and hate on Russell. It makes no sense to me, specially when we consider one of em, to be..."the best in the world"

Thanks for all feed back, and thats including those that HIGHLY disagree with me, you know, those Lebron LOVERRRRRS of the world :D.

Back on subject now, let's get ready for an exciting season. Things are getting closer..team wise, theres not a big gap between some of these teams, my opinion, but then again, wth do i know :/ lol

Update: At the half between steel and Foes. Foes lead 51-41. The reporter asked Lee Quick about the first half, and what the team needs to do, to finish off this game. Lee Responded by saying "First and foremost, I wanna make this very clear, Steel is a dirty team, and there's no room in our league for dirty players like that,specially from guys that are will past their prime"

For those who're unaware of what Lee Quick is talking about, or forgot about it. It was in last year's playoff game, where Steel injured the Foe's allstar PG, and tonight they injured Foe's 2X all star Center. You can feel the bad blood rising between these two teams.

Stay tune for more fireworks
