No idea what to expect. Last time we played it was a 2 point game. Both teams have changed a bit since then.

Congratulations on the NBBA title.

HCA + Effort = Getting absolutely crushed on the glass as well as fouling you like crazy. 24 fouls to 9. 46 rebounds to 31. I mean, everything possible had to go wrong for me to shoot 51.8% and still lose.

JS is definitely underrated on non-guards. But on guards, it seems like there's a pretty easily reachable limit on how useful JS can be.

Man my team blows. I felt like I was underperforming when I added that 200k guard, but I kept wanting to give it more time to see if it was just a coincidence. End story, I waited too long to realize I needed to make some changes.

I needed a Silverbacks injury to get me into the Finals, and then my own mismanagement became apparent in Game 1.

Fun fact: If do you end up losing in the finals...

We will both have lost in the playoffs to the league champion, and we will both have lost in the cup to the cup champion. Our losses would be exactly 1 week apart too. (cup: you -- 7/26 & me -- 8/2, playoffs: me -- 8/11 & should you lose, you -- 8/18)

That's more of a depressing (we almost made it) fact than a fun fact. Kind of like how the Redskins are the good luck charm for the NFC. If we beat you, you've got a good shot to win the NFC Championship game.

I don't know about your new Center, but I know I'm doing some roster shuffling sometime soon. That specific PG experiment was a bust. Also, it'd be bullshit if Pratt won MVP. Like Robinson over Olajuwon, except if BMG's Cespedes actually started instead of being a backup.

Pratt as the unanimous choice... interesting. I don't think Cespedes was or should have really been in the mix... he's been solid, but not spectacular, for me for a while now. If Casillas had been with me longer, I think he'd have made a bigger push.

I guess Pratt gets it on the "best player on the best team" criteria, even though I don't think he's the best player (Owens, Bland or Alas, depending on how much you value defense, with Bland as the best defensively, Alas as the best offensively, and Owens in the middle for both), nor is he the most valuable player to his team (Alas by a mile). Still, I can't argue with it going to a team that finished 18-4, and in that case, Pratt's clearly the guy.

Completely. No way Pratt deserves it. I wish he wasn't limited by superstar potential. I don't think anyone with only superstar potential should possibly get the league MVP. He gets stats on my team, but your bigs trash mine.
