Haha Man - yeah it's fun to get upper and upper.

Lol

Good job Testudo. Preparing for playoffs for a bit purchased one more SG (going to play SF) to strengthen my chances in playoffs. There were 2 seasons in a row in finals maybe 3rd time will be luckier. Also, I gave quite a lot of time for my youth center Jonathan Dean, training his IS this season, I will start to train at the end of season ID and next season I will continue with his ID Training, of course, rebounds as well. So far so good, big plans BUT still a lot to do.

My season is going a lot better than expected! 7-4 in the league in which I expected to be fighting to survive. Although the league is very close so I'm going to have to hope my team can keep up the good start. I also still in the cup which is a surprise to me, although I have had an easy run so far.

I've also managed to add a decent amount to my arena and I'm continuing to make a good profit each week, add to that the cup and BBM wins (I'm 4-1) and my bank balance is looking pretty good!

Happy to get past Bethnal Green Erks as I knew they were a strong team, and them having home court advantage made my challenge a bit harder but my team came through pretty comfortably in the end.

Really glad I didn’t draw Hope or Vecx, which will be a very interesting matchup, although minutes management may come in to play. Honestly I was hoping to avoid Gauson as well as they are another strong D2 team with a lot of EBBL experience. Expecting a tough game.

Big shock for my was Optic losing to Snaiperiai! Both teams with the same effort as well! Optic did have 2 players get injured, including their star in the lineup so js8 was very unlucky. I guess that’s the randomness of BB.

We’re going to see at least 2 D2 teams in the semi finals, could we see a D2 team in the final this season? What an achievement that would be!

Well looks like we’re guaranteed to have a d2 team in the cup final!

The cup draw this season has thrown up some surprising ties! From Arsenal vs Donekys early in the tournament, to then putting Hope vs Tide in the quarter finals, and then putting the last 2 EBBL teams in the semi final!

Good luck to the other 3 teams left in the competition!

Team Nook went 4/24 from three, and I'm guessing arrows was hoping to get more shots off inside

I was a little surprised my team shot so many, especially with the good offensive flow rating which suggests my team passing should have been good enough to get better shots. Although I think quite a few of them came towards the end of the game when we were trying to make a later comeback. My team shot only 43% on 2 point attempts, which is way worse than Tide of Fire. They have some special players and their salaries and ratings don't do them justice.

I think the main thing that surprised me was how little the exhaustion effect was. I guess Vecx's players have high stamina which helps them, but his main guy (Le) played every second up until I think around 1:30 to go and was still effective.

Nevertheless this is the furthest they've ever got in the tournament, and perhaps they'll get another shot at it in the future.

Very happy with getting this far in the cup. I guess the draw had been on my side until the semi-finals but still had to beat some very good d2 teams to get here. My team is still on the way up, I'm sure this won't be the last time I get to the semi's or even further.

Good luck to both teams in the final.
