Thanks, I felt I had a chance if you didn't go crunch time, albeit a small one as you are clearly the best team in the league. I thought you'd struggle with Elliot if I could get him the ball not being guarded by your best big man though.
Completely agree there. My plan against inside offences this season has been basically to stop the ball getting inside. Even my best big man couldn't stop Elliott. Its worked pretty well this season.
I would definitely have crunch timed in your position, with home court and the best team and having TIEd all year, I think you're pretty much home & hosed if you don't get an injury and don't really need the extra enthusiasm boost.
Arrogance may have crept in but I felt I could win without crunching. In fact, I was planning to PON the next game too. It wouldn't hurt to keep enth high. I felt the possible final with Sabre was going to be close.
Whatever it was, its not an excuse. Best team won on the night.
