first time I have ever composed a team considered worthy of the playoffs  (if only marginally) . . . 

considering that at other times I actually did make the playoffs -- does that mean I am now doomed ? ? ? 

That seems to be how it works haha, the two times I was told I wouldn't make the playoffs are my only two championships. Us eval writers know nothing!

woah, 2nd seed? hope you're right, Ben. 

well done Ben - my only quibble being that 19500 minutes I will actually be using every single one this season and will probably push those limits if I see too many OTs

In the last 6 seasons, no one has won 50+ games with more than 19500 minutes so that was what I was going on. You have 19575 minutes, which is barely over that, but still over so that was why I pointed it out. I did so for everyone not in the 19300-19500 range. Only one team out of that range in the last 6 seasons has won 50+ games and none have made it past the second round of the playoffs. Of course, that doesn't mean that will stay true this season!

overall:
This team has good rebounding, passing, and defense, but it's efficiency is below average, and I am confused about the Parish season you selected. The strong bench and solid rebounding and passing stats will help this team compete heavily for a playoff spot in the tough West, but I think with the best Parish season, you would have locked up a playoff birth.
