Fresh league tables available after 12 Rounds.

3 especially interesting matches,

- 10W-1L teams RAJ and VIV had a clash, and RAJ took 4th by 7 and therefore match by 7. High level competition was seen in this important match between highly ranked teams..

- in an another one of French vs. French match, VDT was able to find a 2 point win against WMO, and now having won 5 of their last 6 matches and climbing upwards in a league table. WMO on the other hand is 2W-6L in their last 8 matches, so their direction has been almost completely opposite recently. WMO scrored 3 points behind the 3 point arc, while for VDT the same number was 42. On the other hand WMO had 11 more second chance attempts, 19 more free throw attempts and only 3 turnovers (vs. 11), but still VDT took the win in this nailbiter match.
Very important win for VDT, equalizing things with WMO at 5W-7L each, and getting above the Playoff line (of 12 first teams).

- LGM-ED, another of French vs. French matches. ED is now 6W-2L in their last 8 matches, LGM 2W-5L in their last 7. A match that LGM really didn't want to lose, as now they're below the Playoff-line (however, there are still "lots" of matches remaining). ED slightly better on several stats categories, including turnovers and offensive rebounds, however, LGM had better FG%. Both teams were shooting lots of bricks from the three point land though (and I know how it feels, after VPO butchering me by second-largest win of their season, by 37 to be exact).

Anyone has some thoughts on Monday's games, yes?

TY
We'll see what happens next year My guys have big problems with their fouls, I think it's because of my low passing. I'll work on that next season.

29 ast for 129 pts is not a very good passing game, IMHO.

As I think I mentioned earlier, it's nice to read more and more of these comments on tactics.

After 11 Rounds of play, LMS's AST-% (assisted field goal %) was 54,4%, which is ranked 16th in whole HGL, and in this match 29 of 50 field goals were being assisted ones, making it 58% in this match. So while they did improve on their typical AST-% average, I think you had a point there...

RS R 13: Monday, March 2nd, 2026 WAG 94-108 ED
(137821417)

A strong victory, not so easy, cos' Wagner never was too far from my team.
I still lost the rebounding battle (42-58 and 2(TWO !)-19 Off Reb) but hopefully still be very good at stl/to : 8/6 for me and 1/13 for Wagner.

The 2 pts % is very good (51%) and the 3 pts was a very bad choice for Wagner (8 of 35 !!).

RS Round 13:

The BB game engine had a real nail-biter in store for Jotadoce and me today, as I was able to grab a narrow win only in the second overtime. Lot of credits go to I.Eliste, who blocked the buzzerbeater attempt by M. Bagunyà. The game was absolutely interesting throughout all quarters as the largest lead any team held at one moment was by a mere 7 points. While I had more success in scoring field goals, MAD were clinical from the line. In the end, E.Karu and J.Raimets were able to combine for 76 points scored and led us to the first win against Madrid Chotis over the 3 seasons we have been part of the HGL. Nice game, Jotadoce, and good luck for the rest of the season!
