Pretty close series for the EC but the West seems to be a more lopsided conference. hehe altho there might be an upset in the making out west with the 5th seed having a whopping 3-0 advantage against the 4th spot

Good start by stealing game 1 on the road, and up 2-1. Gotta close it out!

part 2 uploaded.

4 upsets this playoffs. 2 on both sides.

wow we just dominated the Nets; and now we have the Pistons and we get home court as the 6th seed!

Even though my squad's offense sucks, they can play playoff defense. 
Great series, Wolves.

Part 1 of Round 2 is up now.

Next on schedule:
May 12 (Wed) - Playoffs Round 2 (game 4-7) 10 AM EST
Unfortunately, I will have to push back the sim schedule a day or two. My schedule doesn't allow me to the sims regularly at night (EST).

Anyway, sim is being uploaded already.

Wow Pistons are really taking care of us defensively. Time to muck up the DC

Next on Schedule:
May 13 (Th) - Playoffs Round 3 (game 1-3)- NOON
May 14 (Fri) - Playoffs Round 3 (game 4-7)- NOON
May 15 (Sat) - Playoffs Round 4 (game 1-3)

Another early exit for my team. sadly.

RESIGNINGS WILL BE DONE AROUND THE FINALS. WIll give a week to make decision.

Congrats Pistons, well earned. They were dominant defensively, holding me to below 75 points twice.

Matchup with the Trailblazers for the west bid to the Finals. I believe we split in the regular season, and we had the exact same record in the regular season, so it comes down to our wings and who can stop who. good luck to the final 4 teams! Hopefully this is my chance to represent the west in the finals!

Thanks Wiz!  We had an up & down season.  When Charles got injured, it looked like we lost our team chemistry.  But my BAD BOYS have managed to impress me as well as surprise most of the league I bet.  Lets dance 76ers!

BAD BOY 4 LIFE!!!

You guys don't know what Ive been through against the LEAGUE'S BEST team with the Magic. I cant hardly remember when was the last time I was able to beat them. They certainly have my number prior to my series victory.

I made some adjustments with my team's defense. I played using my strengths (no.1 in OFG% and no.1 in RPG.). I also made sure that my MVP, performs like a man possessed.

IMHO, i can say that beating the Magic is as hard as winning this year's championship. Frankly, with this feat, I think that im very much capable to win it this year. sigh.. Finally!

Next on Schedule 
May 14 (Thursday) - ECF Part 2 - noon

I smell a sweep. And an upset.. hmm..

Well, the Pistons is certainly causing me a lot of difficulty on the offensive end. I think I just have more firepower on my team compare to his, with the top two scorers at the play-offs belong to my team. :D

NO to Injury. Yes to Sweep!

ouch!  did my team even show up?  Good job 76ers, hope we prove to be more of a challenge for Part 2!

Yup, your team showed up. I think that your team gave me the WORST time on offense, compared to other teams I faced. :D I still maintain the same DC I used against the Magic, which I think is pretty perfect for my team. It really utilized my rebounding, perimeter scoring, and ability to contest shots.

We'll have new champions this year. up now.

Wow. In all of my years in sim basketball, most of them being here in SSBA, this is the first time EVER one of my teams has made the Finals. Congrats to the Blazers who had a fine season, and played us pretty tough all season. Now on to the Finals, and the 76ers and their high scoring backcourt. Rudy and Timmy have a Tough matchup with Chamberlain and Strickland.I'll need my team's great play this post season to continue.

In my case, I think it's only my second time making the finals in SSBA. I also think that my team's morale is pretty high after beating the Magic and the Pistons.

Great Job PistonsGM, you certainly did pull down my scorers' averages. Haha! You have such a great defensive team right there! =)

I'll sim part one tonight.the board was down earlier and i'm at bed now. Too lazy to walk through the pain i suffered earlier after landing awkwardly while playing ball. Sirry

i can sim part two of the finals as soon as i get the 2 dcs in tho. To keep up with the schedule.

Just in case you missed it, re-signings are up.

I forgot to post that i have already uploaded pRt one. Gosh


Upset brewing?

Sorry about the delay. I woke up really early for the Magic game, ended up in the office, had to go home early because I felt sleepy. sorry. Just seemed right after my nap.

Offseason schedule will be updated. Draft will start likely on the 21st. Depending on how fast the potentials can be inputted.

Congrats to the 76ers. They turned on the win and swept the last 4 games. Now to find a way to get back, and win next time!

Congrats to the 76ers.

Congrats to both teams, great season all around and thanks to Magic for picking up the league and taking it on for the joy of us all to continue

Thanks to everyone! Well, it's kind of my "early twenties" dream to win a title in SSBA.

If I'm not mistaken, it's been five years that I'm trying to win a title here in this league. I think my drive in winning a title here "slowed down" when there was a very long break in this league where I even forgot who my players were!

I thought that the break gave me a newer persepective in running my team. Like Einstein once said, sometimes in solving a problem we need to take a step back. In order to see the problem as a whole. That break lead me to the idea of placing Trey Wooten, who was comfortably averaging 3-4bpg, at the SF position which ended up to be a huge game changer, defensively, at the SF position. He was able to shut down premiere scorers like Nick Anderson, Blake Diddle, Dominique Wilkins and Dan Majerle. Then during the play-offs, I changed my defensive strategy from running "often" on both press and trap to never or sometimes. Because my team is never good at steals, so why should I increase bothe press and trap settings?! :D

I just never had a break to win in this league. Well, there was a time where I thought I was in the brink of winning one but my players signed with other teams in the offseason that ruined my chances, big time.

Lastly, Congrats to everyone who participated this season. May we continue to have a HIGH QUALITY sim league in here. More Power everyone and may Godbless you all!

Thanks! I thought your team stepped up, BIG TIME!

After the first part of the sim, I thought that I'm going to lose the series because my team is underperforming. Then I thought that I need not make any changes because maybe it's just SSBA's "law of average" where everything shall turn back into normal after a first few games. It turned out that it didn't turn into normal and It's just that I was really bound to lose the first two games since I don't think any team is bound to get beaten sometime, specially with a team like yours.

Defensively, I thought that your team played very well, it's the same defensive intensity we experienced with Pistons' bad boys. Offensively,I thought that my team just got more firepower on the offensive end that lead me to win the finals.

Anyway, thank you! And let's continue to make this a high quality sim league like GMs like you! =)

Actually, thanks to all the GMs who have been active after that "break".
