Dare I say it, I think your "aura" intimidated me out of our recent cup game.

That and the fact that I didnt think I could beat your mob on your home court

Yes Goldfish and YPB with their recent acquisitions certainly look like they have an agenda and Koops and BrisVegas Spurs could just as easily follow their lead.

That said Id now have you odds on.

After fully intending to concede our game since the draw came out last Thursday night, I actually contemplated at the last minute throwing in a CT and starting my best line up to blindside you.

Would have been an interesting game

Yeah, i was certainly surprised when you packed it in, i thought i was in for a fight that game. Definitely not complaining at the outcome though! :P

Training is still my priority at the moment but unexpectedly adding another trophy to the cabinet this season would be awesome. I'm not as convinced as you seem to be, especially with the other teams starting to buy up now but we'll see how it goes.

I wouldn't count out the D.3 Ballers either!!! :)

Fairly disappointing to see all ABBL teams draw D.2 or 3. Couldn't have drawing a couple against each other to increase the underdog chances!

Considering there are only 6 ABBL teams left in the final 16, i'd say the underdogs are doing pretty well at the moment!

Must admit im pleasantly surprised how competitve my team has been this season whilst still making plus 100k a week profit.

Only real objectives for this seaaon was to avoid relegation and to train so for the team to have been in contention for the cup and ABBL championship was an unexpected dilema.

Sad that Riviera will be 34 next season when my window of opportunity was expected to open.

I might throw a real curveball soon

Curve balls are fun, especially when they come from the left field.

Would be interesting to see the odds now =P

Yes Koops your 3 Rental acquisitions, might also be a little bit of a curve ball for the likes of YPB, Fish and Dire.

I knew there was a reason I also kept you at under the odds for the ABBL championship as well.

You have history and form for this type of "tactical manoeuvre"


Great to see that the over extension tax is working effectively as a deterrent against such tactics



Still time for Pancakes to buy up before the training update

Yeah, I was disappointed that Sacks got injured at 7 minutes in but to be fair I think you would have won anyway, I was surprised it was so close.

oh i didnt even notice that. didnt watch the game live, so I didnt even realise.

actually it was a good game to watch from like an analysis perspective. You can see in the first quarter the HCA effect taking place as your team takes an early lead, then slowly slowly my team claw their way back in until they over-run your guys in the last.

and i thought it was funny that it was base offence vs Base Offence.

Cup definitely isn't decided yet, especially since other teams like Goldfish and YPB starting to buy up.

Certainly not. Teams buying up and/or CTing this round is to be expected. So I wont be surprised to see some so-called upsets this round.

Holy crap! I closed my game at halftime thinking all was lost. Came back an hour later and had a UNBELIEVABLE comeback! Just so amazed. This is the furthest I've been in the cup just surpassing my previous record set last year. I'm so proud I'm in the quarterfinals lol. But now I'm matched up against Brisvega so it's safe to say bye to the cup. I don't care tho, so happy I got this far. Luckily my league is easy enough that I've kept an undefeated streak this far and hopefully it won't end in my next game.
