Yes, this is former KDB squad. I just like the old name better.

Me too! Maybe i should change and/or should have asked to have my old team [now Lagos Lakers) back...

Not a good start to season 69 (dude)! Asingratitos got me again with that early season behemoth roster. First weeks of low GS and enthus always feel painful

Wow this is not my season... lost the 4th quarter by 25?!?

MIGHT be time to blow it up. I am down in the dumps.

Me, either....can't remember a time I went 0-4 to open the season.

I feel like we need a proper old school nbba style season opening greeting:

Eff you all! Especially you Jason

I'd just like to highlight the 2nd point in this previous post. Called your shot and still lost! ;)

Rankings are cooking rn!

Rankings are cooking rn!

I sure hope you didn't burn them!

Not burnt! Needed a slow burn.

1) AZ Desert Storm
The demoter has just purchased another player to bolster the backcourt. Peron and the bigs are delighted to see Jason pushing for a promotion. While their defense has been average, their offense has been spectacular, running opposing teams out of the gym. With the Big 8 games approaching, we'll see if other contenders have something to say about their undefeated record

2) Asingratitos BC
Another undefeated squad, they've been doing it despite their unorthodox management style. Rent-A-Player has been working marvelously for them, and it seems now that they're winning they will continue to rent and win! Gameshape will start to become a challenge though, we'll see what their plans are coming up

3) Gunslingers
Now here's a solid defensive team here! Gunslingers run the league's best defense, holding opposing teams to 30% shooting on average, and their shooting has been decent enough to almost average 100PPG. His balanced approach and the growth of his Italian center will continued to be monitored as I believe his defense will continue to improve

4) Las Vegas SIlver Stars
Pakis and friends continue to lead the Stars to victory, and their team produces good shooting stats to compete with the best of the best. However their defense does have a few cracks and might need some addressing before the playoffs. They're just at the right place they want to be though, as being a playoff contender you'll always be right there to make the splash deal needed. Oh yeah, also might wanna improve on 58% FT Shooting too. Hack a Star time?

5) Mountain Eagles
Think of what I said for the Stars, just the opposite. Despite losing 2 critical starters the Eagles have leaned on their defense and supreme shot blocking to have the league's 2nd best defense. But with only Marino and Lince dropping 20+ a game, their offense feels very vanilla. Might need to find another powerful offensive weapon to slide in and take the load of the bunch. Could definitely have used Noe's 18 and 10 a night right now

6) Pittsburgh Peacocks
The vaunted big man duo has been performing well in Pittsburgh, leading them to a superb RPG and quality looks from the field. The cup games will continue to challenge the Peacocks but they got the horses to hang. In a competitive Big 8 GS should be treated like gold. Stay tuned!

7) AMC Spirits
Their balanced roster has led to a quality defensive approach, holding teams down to a 36% FG against in each contest. I'll say I've been surprised with the performance of AMC this season. Quality PD and team management are the calling card for AMC, however with a tougher schedule coming up we'll see if they can maintain their competitive edge.

8) Janitor Crew
A bit surprised for the low record here from Antwon. Now I'm aware he's sold off a few people, as he seems to be trading out certain American parts for others. The constant has remained the same though with Jia and the younglings continuing to get better. We'll see if when his new guys get into form if the Crew will take it up another notch

9) Globo Gym
The Thong, the Fart, and trainees? Their offense and defense leave things to be desired but the fact of the matter is Nikebones has been playing above his belt and has scratched his way to a 2-2 record, looking towards a playoff berth. A similar build to the Janitors, his 3 guards seem to all be having a U21 campaign, which means they should be of D3 quality by the end of the season. We'll see if they can get their D up as the season goes on.

10) Social Security Kings
Hoskins is wondering where his help is. He does have some rebounding prowess next to him, but it seems like his team is performing above expectations at 2-2. Hoskins stats haven't been stellar themselves, but his on the court play has demanded more from his teammates. We'll see if he has moves up his sleeve, but he's still got a ton of time and bottom feeders at the bottom so he'll be safe for the time being.


11) Bonham Bricklayers
This is a surprsing spot for coachehicks. Berman and Espinar are the big boys down low but they haven't been getting quality support from the backcourt lately. Looking at the numbers it doesn't seem they should be 1-3, but unfortunately this is where they stand. We'll see if hicks has a plan to elevate his guard play, as Berman and Espinar also gotta skill up in order for Bonham to get back in the playoff picture

12) King Drive Ballers
Another disappoint start to the season for this team as well. You could easily look at the stats and see that their defense has definitely let them down this season, with 45% FG against. 46% of teams hitting the three ball against them too. No blocking whatsoever so no one to challenge shots. Brian has a lot of work to do but he's a veteran compared to all of us. He will figure it out....right???

13) 2 left feet
Another poor defensive team, I look at left feet and he's gonna need to get a right foot in order to get back in the fold. He has a ton of betas, old players. I'd highly consider he start investing the draft a bit in order to get talent infusion on the roster, as He might want to start looking into developing more players for his next chapter.

14) BFT Ever
Uh, what is He doing? He is the only one showing up to games, as he's one of the league leaders amongst players in PPG. He can't do it alone though, as the defense is BBQ chicken everywhere and their lack of offense outside of He is alarming. Not to mention He can't grab all the rebounds either, as BFT is allowing over 60 RPG against. Holes are there, but once BFT gets He some help He will be back on track.

15) Mississippi Cobras
Shout out to this guy! MSC has been BB Mailing me lately, tryna get accustomed to the game. He has a long way to go but at least he is asking for help and wanting to seek advice. He should check out this forum too, we got a ton of vets in here willing to help out! He did trade out a guard for a cheaper guy, and he has an arena to start building up on. My message to you is that BB is a marathon, not a race, and to be patient.

16) Maryland Champions
AFK. Prepare to be botified

Great write up and rankings :-) although, I would like to issue a formal protest of the number two ranked team in your power rankings!

Nothing about that lame strategy that falls under the category of a simulation... Asshatsniffalaficus should always have a 5+ penalty to wherever you think he should be ranked :-) So with all things being equal you would have ranked him number two like you did, that would mean he'd be ranked number seven :-)

Looking forward to seeing Mr weak sauce fade as the season goes along!
