Well done. I tried all the tricks to keep your score down but didn't think enough about how I was going to score. I doubt any tactic would have given me the win but patient would have kept it closer I think. Problem with that is Ward dominates the offense and runs out of gas in the 4th.

All the best for the finals to you and Gully

Much appreciated.

Even better news than Sotiropolos finishing 3rd in the MVP voting (was he so much better this season than last?) is that he's fit after missing the first two play off wins and will likely start on tuesday. Of course Évrard. Osullivan and Easton have all been outstanding in his absence so someone will have to miss out. Unless I can find a way to play with four forwards.

Thanks mate, pity you were a man down, I think it would have been different with Barik

Still not over til it is over

That may be the case, but I'm fairly confident I'd have an easier time against any of the playoffs teams on the red side than I'm having against Porzigod. In fact, I'm pretty confident our series will end up being the highest level matchup in the EBBL's postseason. This happens when some teams train all season and the people who don't get deceptively good records and undeserved 600+ PD.

been training passing most of the season...

Congrats Lemonshine.

Thank you everyone for last season.

P.s. I will be back ;)

You deserved to be in EBBL, well done mate and hold your head up high. This has been a very tough season.

All the best and yes, I expect we'll see you again soon

Selling Bujalska when you've worked that hard...not sure I could do it (definitely not at that age) myself. If I had 5m I'd have taken him on I think.

Shame I had to relegate a 12-10 decent team J Dog. It feels a bit unfair, you play properly all season and just miss out on 4th, I've got 5 wins and a nonsense negative PD but reinforced my team (slightly more than I meant to really) at the end and 2 good games keeps me up...
Hope to see you back and hope you still play BB. Your brother mentioned in chat the other day you might be losing interest? Sell Zunliang, buy cheaper C and you'll be back up next season hopefully. D2 can be more fun than D1 at times I reckon.

Today reminded me of another relegation series I was in ages ago, both times I've thought I was the underdog. I've dug and it can only have been season 39, playing BC Atletas (who I only just found out are the same team as BC Zalgiris :D maybe that explains why you seem to hate playing me...). I had home advantage that time though. If it wasn't that series it was another where I remember having bad GS and the other teams being great...

I've been in the EBBL a long time now. Still swimming it seems, just about. Possibly swimming in circles, but we'll see what happens next season...

Yee my heart has been broken after selling Bujalska...

I might stick at lower leagues for some time and train multiple Bujalskas xD.

All depends on selling some of my players and this year drfatees.

I think I dodged a bullet there. I was fully expecting to lose the second game. To be fair, I gambled a bit in the first game, Normalling and walking right into the 3-2 zone and it backfired (my reasoning was that I had better GS and there was no guarantee of that being the case afterwards and I was suspicious you might Normal as well).

I'm sure you will be back but you should have kept Bujalska!
