Round 7 of the TV game show (Match Prediction Contest) is complete. Big sigh of relief from the Skillz fans when they heard after the game that star Russell Medina's injury was only temporary. The creoles got out to an early lead, but once the second half started it started swinging back. The Skillz were absolutely locked in only giving up 3 turnovers all game. Meanwhile holding the Creoles to 38% from the floor and stifling the comeback by holding them to 27% from 3pt range. Meanwhile the Creoles struggled defensively as their lockdown outside defense was useless against the persistant inside game of the Skillz. Can Skillz take this win and stay up in the playoffs and clear of relegation from here on out? Or will this loss drive the Creoles to take no prisioners against their upcoming out-of-conference foes?

As for next week....
Tuesday 4/2/2024 8:00:00 PM 1st place Rashmonsters @ 5th Place Dark Matter
No one suffer as bad this week as the Dark Matter fell from 2nd to 5th in the Big 8. These are two big-time competitiors in this league. I even thought this fixture might be an early version of what one might see in the finals. Both teams are veterans in this league for at least 6 seasons and know what each other are capable of?
The rivalry since Seaosn 58 stands Rashmonster 5 wins and Dark Matter 1 win.
Rashmonster have been a playoff team 6 of the last 8 seasons. Where as Dark Matter have not missed a playoff appearance in 4 seasons. With playoff spaces still such a tight race in both conferences who needs this win more?
Two backup players are on sale for the Dark Matter will those play any role?
