The T-Breds surprised me, though. They are looking quite strong. Maybe you can pencil The Mogul in as the favourite but unlike past seasons I think there are a number of teams with a shot.


I was not surprised, though. If you still remember how they almost upset BC Torooo last season in the cup game then yesterday their win was not a big surprise as BC Torooo was definitely stronger than my team. I don't mind the relatively early loss in the cup if the loss will come sooner or later, lol.

Good luck to everyone still in the cup. BTW I think you also have a shot to the winner of the cup.:)

You never know. Last night #273 beat #14 (a Naismith team that is 7-3 this season). Anything can happen in the cup.

For anyone who is curious: http://www.buzzerbeater.com/match/32331104/boxscore.aspx

Definitely a good example of how wide open the cup can be since top flight teams need to make decisions on which games to throw resources and effort at. Also a good example of how home court and effort can make a huge difference.

I understand i might have had a chance if my oppenent this week, had some tough games but by the look of things he isn't going to have to crunch and i crunch last week so unless something changes i think i might just TIE. I feel pretty good i knocked off a game in the 130 in the country when my team is in the 220's so maybe next season my goal will be to make it past round 6.

This week it doesn't look like any of the top teams are in trouble this week.

I feel this BNP guy might just end your cup run this up coming week, on your home court :)



I'll play Milot at PG if you promise to play Picard at PG.


Please do I would love to watch this game!

Sounds good to me...I'll move him over from SG for the game. Nothing like a little head to head battle.

To your question about my enthusiasm I'll just tell you what happened after last weeks Canada Cup match up.

All the players from the Kitchener Hi-Toppers went out to a celebratory dinner at one of the fine Steak houses in Kitchener, Alfred Williamshttp://www.buzzerbeater.com/player/14642556/overview.aspx the team captain said this to his teammates,
"Congrats! We just won the biggest game in franchise history,"
in beating the 44 ranked team in the country Toronto 5-0http://www.buzzerbeater.com/team/25019/overview.aspx
"Boys we made it back to the 6th round last year it was our last round but this year it will be the start to the deepest run at the cup in franchise history!"
with that the whole team cheered and began to converse and laugh and about their defense match-ups in the up coming Cup tilt against Sam Habtu Flight Squadhttp://www.buzzerbeater.com/team/33652/overview.aspx.

So I don't what do you think are they enthused.

all the players from Sam Habtu Flight Squad( including their multi billionaire GM) are going to practice every other day, and study games that the Kitchener Hi-Toppers played. their alleged Win against Toronto 5-0 which was not a real victory because Toronto 5-0 used only 6 players who were 1 backup and 5 scrubs. which Tommy Saint-Amand finds kind of hilarious because their whole team is at a steak house celebrating and being more american(getting fatter) while he is at the Gym everyday. he is looking forward to the Tommy Saint-Amand vs Piotr Walenski Match-up. he was quoted
“I don’t create controversies. They’re there long before I open my mouth. I just bring them to your attention.”

Henrik Vén only had one thing to say to Piotr Walenski
“You don’t hesitate with Tommy, or you’ll end up on some poster in a gift shop someplace.”

The Rest of Sam Habtu Flight Squad are ready to run and gun them out of Court. they want to see a poster with Tommy Dunking on Piotr Walenski. that poster alone will skyrocket the teams merchandise. I mean what else is Prolific IS for

the general manager was quoted saying
“I have one thing to say to those non-believers. … Don’t ever underestimate the heart of a champion.”

What makes you say that? The 2.2 million that I am sitting on, just waiting to spend?

Meh, even with that it is not going to be easy. I need better draws going forward. For example, having the Secrets Agents facing off against the T-Breds, followed by me facing the winner at the Filing Cabinet. Now that would be nice.
