Round 2!
#1 Houston Stars vs. #3 Washington Hoyas- The Great 8 semifinal game is going to come down to the outside attack. The Stars are a great all-around team, but with the Hoyas putting up proficient outside shooting, can they stop PG Vernon Manning's ferocious attack? After besting the Downtown Dudes on Tuesday with their excellent outside game, the Stars are going to have a tough time keeping these guys contained. Hoyas win it 108-97.
#7 Statesboro Kinghts vs. #6 Crown Heights Dynasty- Holy guacamole! The Knights eeked out a win on Tuesday in a barn burner, even with the massive confusion on the bench. GM Whitefoxx commented on the unusual tactics, "What can I say? YOLO! *trollface*" On Saturday, CHD will be back for more, but this time, they'll be facing the Knights' starters instead. The power of lame internet jokes brings this relegation series to a close as the Knights bring home the bacon, 85-70.
#6 cant touch this vs. #7 Memphis Trojans- In another close game, the masters of lowercase letters pulled out a 3 point win after an intense 4th quarter. The deciding factor here will be the GS update tomorrow and how that plays out on the star players. The Trojans are going to have to shut down rookie Zhao Guojie, the only player with a double double in the last matchup from SF. The Trojans lose their focus against the onslaught of bad grammar, 70-66.
#1 team voodoo vs. #2 Waltham Celtic Warriors- Both teams had an easy game on Tuesday, besting their opponents by over 60 points each. Now these two titans of the Big 8 get their rematch, after voodoo's scathing defeat to end their perfect streak in the last matchup of the regular season. The Warriors have drastically improved over the season, and now pose a potent threat to their opponent's stagnant roster. team voodoo's GM succubus was unavailable for comment, as he was drowning his sorrows in alcohol. But even that won't be enough to save them from defeat, 95-90.
Here are my picks, what are yours? What do you think? Is anyone alive?
