I predict in your face will score four times as many points as Arizona lol

But at least start w the full squad, not just 3 players.

Lol

I was a little off in my prediction!

Welp, live and die by GDP.

I didn't get the strategy, can you explain that inside / normal guess? There's no possible outcome for a dbl GDP.

Great game and hell of a season -- look forward to building this rivalry even more in upcoming seasons.

Sharks rule the Ocean -- this time.

Ran out of steam in the 4th. Well deserved win by the Sharks - good luck in the finals!

I’m gonna need it thanks!

Yeah, sure. Basically I was most scared of an inside offense, but thought there was a strong chance of motion or base offense showing up.

I felt that if I nailed the GDP on tactic (inside), I’d win even with the pace being off. Similarly, if I was wrong and Warroad went motion or base, I’d have a chance with the offset from the pace. Ran the risk against patient, PTB, and Princeton, although I felt that patient and Princeton had no shot of showing up. It’s probably pretty dumb in theory, but as the underdog with the road + GS disadvantage I felt like I needed to take a risk. I probably should’ve went inside fast or inside slow, I figured Warroad would also PCT this game and clearly based on the final score if that was the case I would’ve lost either way going 1/2 on guesses. Just a miscalc on my part. I’ve always felt that getting the tactic right for GDP has a larger impact on the game than the pace which could be a bad an assumption on my part. Live and learn. Hindsight says just better off not guessing at all, but that was my thinking there.

Tried being way too big brain, ha. For my own sanity, just glad I wasn’t considering a balanced + fast guess today.

I considered a lot of options from you and expected LI or Reverse Patient with your c/PF playing SG still, because you are prioritizing training Cho and Arroyo, and why not, those guys are elite! So I went with the zone. Considered d switching my PF to sg but was concerned if I got it wrong it was game over. On my Offensive tactics I only switched very late to PTB, had I not, the outcome could have been very different. Best of luck next season Bobbanana.

Bob,

Okay, that makes sense -- never thought of doing it like that...primary Focus and hedging with Pace. Either way, your squad put up a really good fight. Great season man!

I looked at GS yesterday and thought you might have to catch him with GDP to win -- if you would have hit one, that could have pushed you over the top. Did you train GS?

War,

I wanna say you've recovered fully from that CT lol. That was really ballsy right before the playoffs in your conference. Look forward to matching wits with an elite manager and just giving you a hard time of it. We have a bunch of sleeper salary, but I don't think we can match up 1:1 with yall.

Still, an honor to face you and I am trying to do my best CC Mavs impression.

166 rtg. at home with a PtB / 3-2 is impressive. Your rebounding from the 3-2 was still really good. I wanna say that an LI / M2M would have given you a 170 at the very least. Surasak had a block party last night and your wings carried the Offense in the PtB -- really nice offense.

Great team in really great game shape...can pull off any tactic.

Best of luck, not that you'll need that much. Really nice move with the PON PON the last 2 games...that was risky too against two fantastic teams.

Yeah, I was tinkering a lot too. I probably overthought it. Nonetheless, think you have a really good team here and a good shot to win it all.

Sharks – Nah, no GS training from me. Wasn’t going to deviate from my training plan. that’s still my priority.
