in my case, i forgot to bench Matthews in my second league game as he had already played 20+ minutes in the first. He got 20+ too in the second game and I still hadn't given him any time at PG, so I had to play him. My bad.

Hopefully it won't hurt too much in the game shape department.

Average. The good news is we are deep in the SG department.

It looks like our game @ England will finally be held today.

By the way, sorry that I forgot to call up Foster and his owner went bot on Monday. The good news is, I still had two roster spots to work with, so I called up Christopher Moran to be our bench C today. That will alleviate some of our game shape issues in the event that one of our Cs gets injured today.

That leaves me one roster spot left and I will save it in case we run into another emergency situation.

Thank goodness we won today. I watched the middle two quarters and was starting to think that we wouldn't pull things out. England was a tough team but now we get Byelarus next. They are coming off three TIEs in a row and are managed by Joesph Ka. So I am not going to underestimate them.

I don't see anyone giving us any problems other than Norge and Romania. To be honest, I was expecting us to beat Norge and lose to Romania. Norge just beat Romania though. I don't get why they won based on game ratings other than the outside flow of Norge was better, but I still would have expected a Romania win

I didn't want to say it but it looks like you underestimated Joseph Ka a bit... We squeaked out a win in a very close game today.

It looks like I out-smarted the BB tactician, though. He threw a low post and a 3-2 zone at us, exactly as I expected. What I did not expect was them playing with more effort. Sucks to be them.

Anyway, your team is clearly stronger than ours this season - (122823.74). Good luck for the remainder of the tournament.


I don't know if I would say that our team is clearly stronger than yours. You came within 9 points, on the road.

In any case, I noticed that you had been reading the "outside tactic is too strong" thread and hoped you would take some of my comments to mean that I would never play an inside game. In fact, I think we were getting too predictable and needed to show that we have an inside game that we can use. Even though I think it is the weaker tactic, I will use it as much as possible for the rest of the tournament to avoid too many 3-2 zones.

Good luck to you, too! By the way, you are quite famous, some of us in the chat were hoping you would show up last night.

In other news, I believe only European teams are ahead of us in the tournament standings (I don't know all the countries so correct me if I am wrong). Uruguay and Mexico are closest, at 2-2 each. Hopefully we can keep them behind us and I can win home court for next season.

By the way, I am also hoping to face Mexico in the knock-out round. I have a score to settle.
