I buy your arguments. Good thing that Warriors should not be able to so totally dominate me in TOs and steals to repeat a win like that. He still can hurt me though, and win, in other ways so I am certainly not feeling sure of winning. Lakers felt like a much tougher opponent before their loss yesterday but maybe that was a misconception.

It feels like I should be the clear favorites now but I am certainly not taking for granted that I will win the playoff. Both Warriors and the winner of Ultras and Bamberg are strong teams.

I wouldn't bet on you, sorry
Actually I wouldn't bet on anyone. I don't think there is a team with bigger advantage. Still, you have an advantage of home court so you should be in the best position.
It doesn't seem to be fair to say more. I am sure you guys are able to do your own analysis . And I sould make mine in order to survive in this league.

I managed to win today and will get promoted. A really tough division. Good luck next season to all of you! I hope to do well in division II next season but probably wont be easy.

Congratulations! I wish you good luck next season! It looks to me that this Utopia "nation" is more and more competitive.

Thank you both! Will be a tough challenge to play in a higher division. No space for strengthening the team as my salary been too high for too long for that. I hope that the income is a bit higher in the highest division.

.....Being honest.....HOW DID I WIN??? hehe

I am aware that Utopian has an infinite better roster than me. No discussion. Do they play better? If we look the ratings, they did.

I got a much better TO-Steals rating, and maybe I did a good reading before the game.

But it is even more unbelievable when I saw that my SF starter was injured after 6 minutes of the game!!!!

So, yes, absolutely, this was a really lucky game for me, unexpected but well worked in advance.

I am sorry for Utopian Lakers, he should be really pissed off.

I am............

I thought I was way too late in the draft to get a decent pick but both The dimers and Tucson Vikings seems to have had pretty nice second drafts. My drafts were pretty good even if I did not spend even one point in the draft, see below. Probably still not getting much money for them and it is difficult for me to put them in my training rotation right now. Will see what I do. Maybe should I keep Durant and sell Van Houle and give up training on my 30 year old HoF. Sadly the value of Van Houle seems low despite three years of training and high potential.
