Thanks smokey. I averaged 27 turnovers and 27 fouls in the two regular season meetings, hoping to avoid that again. Not sure why no one has gone -2 versus box in the playoffs. Wade went 40-11-11 against me in 1st regular season meeting, but went 11 for 33 with 8 turnovers in 2nd meeting against a -2. Since we are drafting here I won't mention undrafted guys by name but I did manage my minutes in the regular season meetings and two of my bench guys were not used against box. IMO in this league there is a very fine line between winning and losing when it comes to bench minutes, just look at how my team ended the season for evidence of this. I rested by core bench guys from games 78-81 and went 0-4, had to put them back out there in game 82 to lock down the #1 seed. This should be a close series, and we will see if I opt to double Wade at some point.
No strategy can defeat the rabid fans at the Air Canada Center!

Sure hope the fans at Air Canada enjoy their final game of the season there tonight, because the series won't be coming back there.

Didn't someone say "the series ain't coming back here" after the Lakers split in Chicago in the 91 finals? They were right, the Bulls won 3-straight in LA to take it in 5.

I feel a lil better now.  If it wasn't me that killed the momentum, it probably woulda been evil
11/23/2013 3:02 PM
In evil's defense, the last sm he got would have him believing he wouldn't be up for awhile. I hope he see's the lil' green flashing envelope soon...nbd.

Our fans acted more like Miami Heat fans that game. Maybe we need some new music during time outs. Maybe "Eye of the Tiger" or "You're the Best." Or maybe some Rush since we're in Canada. :)~

Time to regroup. :) Free Molsons for everyone next game!
