Silverbacks are not far behind.


Wha? Damn! I've had 23 games against them. Sad to see it happen.

Reminds me of the game where I had a 15 JS/15 JR guy at C in a patient against a player with low OD and he had zero points through three quarters.

It is indeed rare to see an upset of that magnitude.

I am not sure how it is you look at that box score and consider it an upset. Under estimated an opponent in a tactic unproven with minimal talent on the floor playing with less enthusiasm on the road. Nobody should be remotely shocked at the results.

Probably should have gone Low Post to get better usage out of the C, but still, his TWO POINT THREE MILLION DMI should have outright mummified the puny 78k DMI guy guarding him.

You are clearly reading patient as a pump the ball into one guy repeatedly offense. It isn't. It settles for the first good shot, typically an outside based one or a jump shot. To put a big like that in that offense, might have been lucky to get 27 shots.

DMI is deceiving. 64k. Who knows what that 78k DMI build looks like.

I've seen Patient put the ball in one guy's hands repeatedly in the past. Maybe in those cases there was really only one good option on the floor.
But yeah, Patient may have not been the best choice to maximize Wakatsuki's skills.
DMI can be deceiving, I agree, but not when it's 29 times greater than the other guy's and you're playing close to your position of strength.

This is where I disagree. DMI is typically weighted toward offense. Fantastic defenders can be hidden. The game ratings of the game tell the whole story. Nobody including the ousted should be surprised.

And really, not just less enthusiasm, but close to half. Doug Fir appears to have gone TIE all season (unless someone did a CT against him) while the Warriors have been going Normal all season (EVO is on default, so that's a Nor/Nor game, and comments here indicate so was the Warriors/Rabbits game). Add in his HCA, and he's got a lot going for him before the game even starts.

The fact that Fir went 37-89 (and 17-36 from 3pt land) also indicates just how outmatched Leary and Anderson were in the backcourt. So sure, the Warriors had a huge advantage at center, but Fir had a pretty large one at the guards. And then Fir played an offense which focused on that, while Warriors played one which doesn't actually focus on the center.

Obviously it's disappointing for a DII team to be knocked out of the cup this early, but when a DII team concentrates so much on the league games, I think it isn't a bad thing that they can be beaten by a lower division team who puts more focus and effort into the cup games.

And the Warriors are still sitting in the driver's seat for the Great 8, having already gotten victories over the two 3-1 teams.
