More stats for B3 should be invented and presented.

Classic:)

I would like to notice that all 3 teams from Poland qualified to the final 32 ;-)

Wow, that's quite an achievement!

I believe it's a record?

Ive had a quick look at the first eight teams who comprise the light blue quarter of the draw.

Please understand that I have added the players salaries up via a calculator so it is possible that keyboard entry mistakes could have occurred and also that teams salaries are not necessarily an accurate indication as to how good a team is.

Injuries and purchase can still occur in the next few days.

Also I havent studied recent form, players gameshapes or likely team enthusiam levels

Dutch Pacers look very dangerous with their salary, however salary doesn't win matches yet. How sad that 2 Polish teams can meet in Top 16, I was dreaming about 3 teams in QF, after last seasons it could be possible

Speculative odds and "punters guide" for this seasons B3

Please note that players can get injured and that teams can add to their rosters in the next couple of days and or sell players, all of which would dramatically change their odds



airsjordans (76585) Solid roster and are in the relatively soft light blue section of the draw, players in good game shape and solid player ratings - Likely to play last years runner up in final 16 and could cause an upset in such a game 12 to 1
SUPERLIGOTA (55675) Respectable roster and good gameshapes. I dont expect them to beat airjordans.
33 to 1
DK Shaolins (208484) Good gameshapes but cheapish roster, cant see beating KS Goldena in first round
1000 to 1
KS Goldena (162456) Proven performer and solid roster. Roster is in good gameshape but currently lacks some depth- might struggle to get past the round of 16 unless they add to their squad. 12 to 1
Mafia (44453) Solid roster with good gameshape. Despite being in a relatively soft quarter of the draw I cant envisage them going too far in this tournament. Tough task being up against the expensive Dutch Pacers roster first up 33 to 1
Dutch Pacers (38253) Ginormous roster with 8 solid players and quite good rankings. Likely to be the team that progresses from the light blue section of the draw. A real chance to be prominent at the end of this tournament provided they dont go bankrupt. 5 to 2
Club Atlético River Plate (60116) Okay roster under the 800K mark but in good gameshape. Some respectable player rankings but I cant see them going too far in this tournament 100 to 1
kokosari (119236) A respectable roster but with a few game shape concerns. A great effort last week to knock last seasons winners out. Not convinced that they can win the tournament 20 to 1
Macabi Haase (38036) Solid roster of largely home grown players in good game shape. Not sure that they have the ability to go all the way and tough opponent first up 33 to 1
猛牛 (70015) Proven quality performer with a solid roster in good gameshape. Hard to read form as has had an easy run in round robin games. One of the chances but not sure that they can win. 5 to 1
İncow Sk (71709) Solid roster in good gameshape. Not convinced that they can go all the way 20 to 1
KK Mordor (42729) Cheapish roster which lacks depth. Had some great wins in the round robins but hard to see them winning this tournament 250 to 1
Boston Celtics (26862) Quality proven performer who I underestimated last season. Easy first up game and a chance to win through from the green quarter of the draw. I cant see them winning this seasons tournament but ive been wrong about them before 8 to 1
TeemoBoyz (85705) Crippled by an injuries and will get knocked out in the first week 1000 to 1
BC RV [team= 50332] Million dollar roster with good depth & gameshape and capable of mixing up the game tactics. Has to be respected and a definite chance to win through from the green quarter of the draw 8 to 1
Portugal Telecom (39037) Tough opponent first up but have a solid roster in good gameshape who had some great victories in the round robin stage. 33 to 1

Continued in next post
