Assunto: I.1

Hi bud, As far as I'm aware the 'season ends draft' is the one with the reverse team standings in place. With the drafts I''m not 100% but I think your team can move up or down 3 places by 'lottery'.

The midseason draft, the one you refer to is decided by the youth training facilities/staff etc. So Dallas it would seem has a pretty good set up there.

and welcome to the boards here Please don't forget to cast your vote in the MVP section !! And that goes for the rest of you too !! Best wishes, Nigel

its not the best team, its the team that invests the most in sports academy etc and some randomness. And in the other draft its done so that the bottom team goes first.. again with some randomness. its all in the guide...?

Hi Fluff, That was some game we had there a few days ago.. man I know it was a buzzerbeater and all, still was a great game.. Tommy eh talk about clutch shot !

My team need one win from three games now to secure a spot in the p/o's. It's been a rollercoaster for sure. Bickley is on his way now and with a broken jaw to boot ! Some guys are in camp, hanging on to a vague notion that I can cause some after season surprises, not sure tho. . Best wishes to all, Nige

That was quite a nail-biting last night in Conference B, Gladiators made it through on goal difference after Inter Lincoln lost out in the East-Coast derby against the Canadiens. Nice to see it going down to the wire... now its playoff time!!

Off we go again Fluff, how many playoff series is this we've had? I think the II.1 finals in S2 is still my favourite series between our teams.

Jeez, just realised that the Inter Lincon vs Lincoln Canadiens game finished 104:105 in regulation. Insanely close!

Woop woop here come the play offs!

Yes apollinaire it is always an honour. I can't wait. Im sure our players are going to raise their games and smash themselves to pieces to win for their fans!
I fed Henry his raw meat this morning and duke has been wearing my patent pending peripheral vision glasses to improve his passing reflexes!
How are your preparations going?

Also make or break for nt later :/

Hey fellas, Good wishes for the playoffs one an all ! And Big Congratulations for Dallas for sealing up the league title.

I said goodbye to two long standing players this week, Bickley and Eret both left for different reasons. In comes Jose a big giant Argentine centre. I hope my guys can get past Toronto to be fair. Our games there are always pretty close these days, should be a cracker ! Laters and go UK !

Close close close in the playoffs - all first-round series are at 2-1 tonight, no clean sweeps.

Is it just me, or have the facilities (group 1 like training facilities) become a lot more expensive to expand?

Ok, here we go one and all. The scene is set.

Your Semi-Finalists for this season.

Conference A

Dallas Mavericks Vs Whitefall Dragons

Conference B

Cannon Fodder Vs Silver Sentinels


Preview:

Dallas enter the Semi's with unquestionable strength. Thier powerhouse centre remains their only concern after injury. Nevertheless, Dallas has been here before and is regarded as the favourites for the title.

Whitefall come into the semi's after a titanic 5 game battle with their close friend and rival the C.I Seagulls. Whitefall have had an outstanding season and with arguably the MVP in Fowell look to take on the champs from a very strong position with great shooters allround.

Cannon Fodder after an opening game loss in their quarters against the tough Glaswegians regained their composure and went through by some margin. Cannon Fodder have undoubted depth in their squad with international veterans as well as highly regarded rookies. They've been a tough team all season and will be favourites to go through to the finals.

Silver Sentinels, I would say the outsider of the four Semi-finalists. The Sentinels came through a repeat series from last season overhauling and reversing the result with the Blue Jays which has notched up a progress tick for them. They also have some interesting rookie players who will be looking to make a mark for themselves. The Silver Sentinels, the dark horses!

Tune in tonight guys 20:30 GMT

It's SHoooooowwwwwtime !!!

Salivation central.

Great write-up Nige... got the outcome I expected to be honest, at least I managed to keep the Mavs' offense under control a little bit, but a lot to do if the rest of us are going to catch up with their front-line strength.

Ha, and just remembered in the nick of time that it's best of 5, not best of 3 (that's what happens when hockey and BB playoffs happen at the same time). Last chance saloon for me tonight...

Hi Jim. Ye, same amigo. Looks like we'll be squaring off for the bronze pot. Not too bad all told really
