How does Davidson lose to Wofford here? This is my NT bid out the window.... 7 assists to 15 turnovers... I shot 35%

I understand randomness.... but this is ridiculous.

Bad beat.  That sucks.

Well, the assist don't mean anything.   They are window dressing.

The 15 turnovers is about right,  you average 13.5 a game.

That Wofford team isn't THAT bad, the center is ok, the SG is all right and the PG is an A+/A+ guy.

I think you're team is better, but  it isn't beyond the scope of possibilities.

I don't understand how my Center goes 3-9 with 71 ATH and 93 LP when his center is guarding him 47 ATH and 52 DEF? His center went 6-11 with my center guarding him with 71 ATH and 76 defense in M2M.

He was hung over.  Or terrified that his girlfriend is pregnant because she's late.  Or just learned she's cheating on him.  Or just got caught cheating.  Or his mom died.  Or he was just really, really baked.

Also, flukes just happen.  One game is a pretty small sample size.

It absolutely sucks, but by way of possible explanation - 

His 99 REB to your 86, leading to 5 offensive rebounds.

He had only 4 points at the half, but scored 11 in the second half.

His scored 2 points on FT after being fouled by your PF on a shot attempt. on 3 FT.
He scored 3 points on a 3-point play (made FT) against your C.
He scored 2 points on a tip-in.
He scored 2 points on a follow-up shot.
He scored 2 points on a fadeaway.

So, really, of those 11 points, only 5 (two possessions) were successful plays run for him against your superior center.

zbrent - shockingly I don't feel better after your explanation.... I know it is random and it sucks, I just hate missing the postseason when I have made the NT the past few years and got my prestige up.
