Well the quest for the 4 seed is over. :lol

Got smoked by the Pistons. I think that was my worst shooting performance of the year. I couldn't believe how many open shots I missed that game. Everything was clanking. Or I would throw a nice cut pass to the inside just to bounce of my players hands and out of bounds. Or I would block some more shots, have it bounce off of 3 of my guys, and into his one player and it gets jammed on me. I think that game was a conspiracy. :lol

Now I need that last win for a .500 season! I can't let up!

i think that since the picsons have such a high d rating that teams automatically shoot worst against them for no reason:lol seems like their mere presence makes my guys brick wide open shots

I hope you stay right where you are.

You, my friend are responsible for my 1 loss this season.

It is time for payback.

Damn Beasley went off for 52 in the Heat/Hawks game, and Cerrius still only won by 3. That loss put kado in the 8th spot and clippers in 7th. So really diddy, your fate depends on 3 other teams. Hawks, Spurs, and Nuggets.

May God be with you.

Our motto: Where being over .500 doesn't matter!

I don't know much about basketball, but didn't the champ come out of the east last year? Boston right? Don't slag on our conference yet. :D

It was the first game played after I had acquired Iverson so I was all over the place trying to figure out how to use him and that ended up hurting me. And yeah so did overrated Gordon. That was back when Diddy was trying to keep him a secret.

i'll be sure to give him a nice send off to the playoffs since he decided to save our game for last.

and wtf is up w/ cerrius. he's been consistent through the season and now is starting to stumble at the wrong time. it really doesn't matter as he's got the #2 seed locked up but still.

i just don't understand how beasley makes so many 3s.

korver wide open on the 3pt line is like a prayer, and he has a 90+ 3pt rating compared to beasley's 70 something. :lol

Yeah I beat the Heat and then played the most lag fest game ever against CB3 and his bucks. Lag was so bad I hit 2 shots outside the paint. 2 the entire game. I scored 58 points and 4 of those were outside the paint. I couldn't even control my defenders.
The netcode in this game is sad. So so sad. And I think it's worse for me since the update. I wasn't having these issues at the start of the season.

you and me both.

although, to be fair, in my game against the sixers i made 6 more shots than you outside the paint :lol

had another "laggy" game vs dcx today too, but i was prepared for it from my game w/ the sixers--adjusted nash's release point to like 1/2 a second :lol

wired, and i have no NAT issues.

and i think true is on to something about the patch affecting the net code because i played dcx in the first week, and everything was fine, but our game today was noticeably broken on my end--missed an absurd amount of wide open shots.

Wired and routerless during my games. I plug in direct. Netcode is just garbage man.

It's got to be the patch. I shot a pretty good percentage and was winning games at the start of the year. To be honest I haven't won that many games since the patch and I have only won the games where the connection has been really smooth for me. It's sad.

I consider myself particularly lucky to have gotten those wins against you guys last night. Each of your key guys seemed uncharacteristically cold, and I had the good fortune of being able to run some early open fastbreaks on you guys to get sizable leads in the first quarter. Then it was a matter of holding on tight and riding our your surges until the end of the game.

I'm not holding my breath for a repeat performance of those games anytime soon.

Again, GG to both of you.

I feel ya. As I mention above, in games where I get a decent number of fastbreaks --- even if I don't end up converting on all of them --- I seem to have a better chance of winning. I'm not sure if it's because the easy fb points help get my guys into a scoring groove, but I did notice that my opponents' PGs (Baron Davis and Chris Paul) were getting tired/subbed quicker than I would've expected. Not sure if running back to defend a few fast breaks helped to gas them or what.
