finn is that a new quote on the homepage and where's it from?? the chron?? `I don`t think it`s a secret we`ve had trouble all year when we play against mobile fours,` Van Gundy said. `They go smaller, and we have trouble with the dribble, so we have a hard time guarding the dribble and a hard time guarding the pick-and-roll, and it leads to having to overcompensate with help, which opens up the 3-point line and also second shots. It`s been our problem all year.`
Why Francis and Mobley don't listen to Van Gundy (huge ego's maybe?) is beyond me. The guy knows what he is doing and is a helluva coach. Everything he says is right on the money.
Ok, standings have been updated. 2 weeks (4 games) left in the season. 3 division winners and the team with best record that does not win division makes playoffs. moe town killers and D0D have their divisions wrapped up. SSG has a 2 game lead over Heath in the Calvin Murphy Division. Cat's Fighting Fords has the wild card locked up. Playoffs will run Mon-Sun snd the Championship will run the following week (Mon-Sun)
Actually D0D doesn't have the division wrapped up yet. He has a 3 game lead over Cat with 4 to play. Both teams will make the playoffs.
Man, what a run I am on! 9 in a row to get back to .500. At least my team is respectable again, even if it is a rogue looking group.
No joke. The worst team in the Olajuwon division has the same record as the best team in the Murphy division. Oh well, at least I didn't crater. I don't care about the championship.... My team didn't choke too much... yaaaay!
I score 1000 points and lose, I am like The Dallas Mavericks of his league. If I really wanted to win I would have added Jason Collier this week.
10 in a row! It's crazy that my misfit squad decided to come together at the end of the season. At least I have a chance at finishing over .500.
My mishandled team is doing decent I see, but nothing more. Too bad about all the problems we had this year, the only way now is up!
*UPDATE* 2 games left in the regular season. moe (28-14) has wrapped up the Moses Malone Division (is that ironic or what) D0D (30-12) has the Hakeem Division locked up. Cat's team (27-15) is pulling a D0D like collapse and Smeg (26-16) has snuck into the picture. Smeg is 1 game behind Cat. The Fri-Sun matchup has Cat going against moe and Smeg plays Pood (6-36) the worst team in the league. The wild card spot is up for grabs. As for the Calvin Murphy Division. SSG (21-21) has a slim 1 game lead over Heath (20-22) Any ties are decided by the seasons head to head record between the 2 teams. Should be an interesting finish in an otherwise forgettable year of fantasy basketball.
Playoffs are set. Cat won both of his games while Smeg lost both of his, so Cat wins the Wild Card. SSG split his last 2 games while Heath also split, so SSG hangs on to win the division with a 22-22 record D0D (32-12) vs Cat (29-15) moe (28-16) vs SSG (22-22) 1st round runs Monday to Sunday Finals will run the same next week. Set those lineups or I will just put in the one you have been using.
Arrrgg... I'm gunna lose. How come I couldn't get SSG? (No offense of course, SSG!) I guess you will end up using the one I had been using... whatever that one was.
