Thanks for your support folks. I have the full roster, so yes I've got a slight advantage but purely on paper! My aim is to take it to 3 Games..... anything can happen then. Good luck Ohmers.

Don't be so quick to give up. Second half you guys made a huge rebound (pun not intended) and actually got more points than my team did for the half. I doubt I could replicate the success of the first l, and you played normal anyways. With my gameshape and enthusiasm going down next week, I forsee a close third game.

To Ohmers: The second half of the game can be reasonably described as "garbage time." And by the 4th, neither team was probably taking it seriously. You're probably training Game Shape, so it won't go down. Granted, his enthusiasm may be higher than yours, but you may have Mandic back. And across the board "average" ratings...extremely impressive for a D-5 team. I predict another win for you.

To Muggles: You might not want to run Full Court Press against the Ohmers. They have an "average" offensive flow rating. That's pretty high, even for some D-4 teams. They're not going to turn the ball over enough to make up for the decreased defense and decreased stamina in Full Court Press. You notice that in your last game, the two of you split turnovers pretty evenly. You might want to try Man to Man against him. What have you got to lose? You also got severely out-rebounded, so you might want to try 2-3 zone to remedy that and contain Richard Cooke. However, 2-3 could create bad mismatches, allowing someone like Mandic to dominate, assuming he comes back. Do what you will, but I don't advice Full Court Press. That defense only works against teams with bad Offensive Flow.

I also concurr with Blujay. FCP can back fire. I'd make it man to man. You prop wont get slaughtered on the boards 2 times in a row..Cmon, Nasese, we want 3 games. Beat Ohmers and make this thing more competitve. You have the studs.

Ohmers, Joule, absolutely nothing against you. You've been a class team/manager. I just want to see a competitive championship. So dont hate on me for firing up Muggles. Besides, you guys are raking in the cash anyway.

I just cut 3 players and trimmed my payroll 35%. Im down to 6 and plan on lokking at another hot PG and a decent center at a lower salary. Gotta get back to making money every week. Good luck guys.

Nice win to tie the series......Princeton offense. Great choice. Hard to defend at times. For someone like Ohmers im sure they can bounce back against it....but nevertheless you got the W. Great game guys.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, but I think Princeton might actually beat my team. His ratings were just completely better than mine too, so we'll see.

I think you've got the next game. You're playing at home, and your enthusiasm will be better since you PON while Muggles PCT. However, it will be a close one. The Muggles defense is stifling when playing Man to Man. Wow.
I see Mandic didn't get as high of a game shape as you hoped. Our good friend, Lone Wolves United, got him fouled out in that scrimmage with only 34 minutes of playing time. Such a shame.
But anyway, the home court advantage is extremely important. I'm sure that will be the factor that decides the next game in your favor.
