Well in a cataclysmic finish to Season 17 Cincinnati Lakers beat the Tenn. Stallions 96-91 to secure their first of many championships. All that were involved were shaken up by the event. Coal Miner's manager Rolly and league MVP Cristóbal Sacristan Roy sat in the Luxury box and watch the events unfold before signing Thomas Hammons who vowed they'd be in IV by the time he was 28. On the floor the Stallions Captain Stephen Yates curled in a ball crying took a minute to evaluate the situation and give Jochen, JMLC, and Grdimir Portada credit on a well played game. The greatest and first Power Ranker has been promoted so I'll try to do as many as I can but I'm not promising anything.
Pre-Season Power Ranking:
1. Coal Miners
After a lose in the Semi-finals to the Lakers the Coal Miners look to be reborn under co-captain Thomas Hammons. I see a repeat of last year MVP award with a strong showing from CSR. Their going to look similar to the Dallas Mavericks and possible end the season on a 900+ campaign.
2. Tenn. Stallions
After meet up with the Lakers the Stallions dropped both of the game.Their is not much different in this team this season, but they assure me they will have a championship quality team. "I see a great future for us,"Stephen Yates.
3. Bollingbrook Tigers
This team is still near the top of V.41 but they need to release some scrubs. Last season Yu Yufa leaded an offensive onslaught. Matthew Jackson lead the rebounding war.Yufa and Goetzke pull off a believable upset against the Coal Miners last season but it's doubtful they will repeat the feat again in S18.
4.Philadelphia Eagles
This young team has become a quick competitor with only 9 player on the paid roll. If they can add some player 3 to 5k they be able to keep up with the top half of the league. No player can help them defeat the top 3 teams with a enthusiasm of 5 and a game shape of avg. of below even if they have a PG name Micheal Vick.
5. WWIAFTM
The WWIAFTM was a hot topic last season they came and astonish. The long name impressed and both baffled us. They will have a great season above .500. Boško Zekovic will move them into the third playoff position if they are still here.
6.Jet Life
Jet Life is really a ready to get started. They have some worthy players and will probably be able to squeeze in the playoffs. Not much to say but they can be impressive at times.
7.The Marshalls
They are Shooting Guard powered. Isaías Cereixas has no help and probably start the season with 32 points. They will be low in the rankings until the I can see them in action.
8. BallKIllers94
BallKIllers94 Have to be the luckiest team in the BB world. They started with a High salary player and got another in the draft the Shooting Guard is likely to be a SF and Larry Mims will move to SG. They luck carried them to the playoffs SF last season but they probably won't be as lucky this season.
Game of the Week: Bollingbrook Tigers VS. Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Men
Bollingbrook Tigers are set to take on the WWIAFTM and this has not been close so far. Every meeting between the two have ended in a 20+ win in favor of the Tigers. Boško Zekovic and Gerhard Lauterbach look to stop this trend and come out the gate swinging.
Good luck everyone and all the best to C. Lakers and S. Slammers on the move up!
