Bergkamp vs KJ7 gl lads, make us proud :] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btPJPFnesV4

Arab, Gwent, JA Miami (had to win), Trix (had to win), Gwent (had to win) again...It's been a tough road recently but somehow I've made the finals! :D Feels like this must've been the hard bit but we'll see.

The Trix game was the hardest of the last 3, which I always thought it would be. Home advantage + me playing Look Inside won it for me I think. LI vs LI and it'd have been very close (with the 2 bigs in great game shape and the outside players not, I was really surprised I wasn't facing an inside attack). I did enjoy Angold vs Kasperczyk's in their "who can shoot the worst" minigame.

Given how close I got to winning the regular season game vs Gwent with less effort (and Sousa in the starting lineup) I knew with a crunch I was favourites. Wasn't easy still, Hanguo super impressive considering my best outside defender was on him and that's a lot of rebounds for the 2 bigs. Made all their free throws too :) That formula will win games. Kasperczyk found his shooting...(boots? gloves? hands? nothing works here) for once for me but it was mostly an all round team effort. Every player got a point. I know Mandujano was in bad GS but 6-27 with only 4 assists? Now I'm doubting his skills/build.

Idk...well played everyone, it's not been easy. I'll do it for red ;)

Made the finals in my Utopia league as well, I'm definitely the underdog there though...arghh the pressure.

I did BO as I was psyching myself out. LI is my general go to tactic, so I half expected you to prep for it as I probably could win with it. But then I got worried you would expect me to go outside. So I just BO randomly. My tactics aren't really that legit, I'm just half decent at training players :p

I had my run of finals a few seasons back for a while, I suck at em. Go get the win the red side has been waiting so long for :)

EDIT: As for our SG's, I don't even know. I only just noticed how bad they did.

Arsenal you've played consistent all season and honestly that's last four matches would have have killed my team, your team is well built, go win it for the reds!!!!!!!!

Good luck in final.

I have no idea what happened to Mandujano shooting, he just started jacking up a number of 3 attempts that only usually makes when i play run and gun, he never gets assists, i really rely on team passing. I just made a horrid mistake picking Vilches +/- (-33) at SF instead of Seras (+10). I meant to pick Seras for tactical reasons but logged into see how game was going and found somehow picked Vilches instead, check your line ups carefully!!. Still I think you would have won anyway.

Oof, I'd not be happy if I made that mistake! Unlucky still.

Thanks for the luck. We'll see how it goes...

Congratz man glad to get rid of you :] :D gl in ebbl :]

but who will do a season preview post now? :p

Thanks Baks (and JA who I spoke to in chat) gonna need any positive words from you guys next year though when I've lost my first 10 games in a row :cry:

Two injuries today including Slachtovy who was my top scorer all regular season. It made it tough! Not sure I got my tactics perfectly right either but I was good enough and the gambling for a 3rd game was worth it...Slightly lucky that I had FoChQi as Slach's backup, he's one of my best 5 just wasn't starting because I was doing an arrogant and training while winning a conf final ;) (Sousa got his 48 mins, Burrows not so much...)

My finals MVP: Kasperczyk. No idea where he found those two games from, hadn't scored that many points all season. 70 pts in my 2 wins with no-one else above 30. The good news: he's under 33 and I'm actually not selling him! Kallas and FoChQi can share 2nd and 3rd.

I enjoyed this season though, very competitive. Good work all :)

Now I get frustrated by the transfermarket again :D No-one buys my players but everyone I see for the same price is worse than them. Of course.

Just give it some time bud they will sell :]

Congrats and good luck in EBBL :) Maybe one day I will fix up and meet you there! (not :p)

Yep would be nice to get rid of you too :D
