Playoffs seeding is set (Unless Gm-Deluxe loses by ~80 points tonight). Some of my thoughts.
1. I completely understand CSPbonat selling off now that he doesn't need the players to promote. He is giving up the season ticket holder boost in exchange for some financial flexibility now.
2. Blue side is pretty wide open. If les rois had homecourt I would probably call him the favorite. On the road, it is coin flip. Trojska is carrying an extreme salary thanks to de Deus (424k total) and would probably be a betting favorite.
3. Red side has to favor Blue Parrots. American Atlas received a bad injury in the last game of the season to their highest salary player (Ku Jzeng) that probably ends any hope of making it to the finals. Injury riddled season for him robbed him of a chance for better seeding. Basket Setubal is much stronger than New Beginning and might be able to give Blue Parrots a good first game. I consider myself a sort of darkhorse for the title. I have two of the best players at their position (Braga at PG, and Patropi at SF) but I don't think my bigman depth is enough to hold off the big teams.
4. I predict both the 5 and 6 side from the Blue side to win the relegation series.
5. Promotion wise...16 teams make Heaven. All the conference finalists in the playoffs (8 teams) and then the other 8 are filled by conference rank (every 1 seed is guaranteed to promote). Then the 2 seeds by the W-L record and PD as tiebreaker.
2 Seed Rankings (games aren't final, so sorta guessing on 2)
1. II.2 Blue side (either Grupito or possibly Kalevan if passes in PD) 19-3
2. Legnano Basket Knights 18-4
3. Me...Disappointing Pancakes 18-4
4. KwaiWah 17-5
5. Probably Two Towers at 17-5, game ongoing. If Two Towers loses, the next 2 teams jump him.
6. Allssecsmaicoen CB 16-6
7. ND Ile Parrot Purple Haze 16-6
8. Miami Parrots 14-8
These are the other 8 teams that can promote. It appears as if Miami Parrots is out with CSPbonat selling off. Pink Floyd Basket also made some big additions to try to get to the finals. So basically if there are two(or three if Two Towers loses today) ND is out.
