12 games left and 4 playoff spots already wrapped up...all in the Black conference (as the two worst teams in the league reside there).

While everyone still has a chance in the White Conference and likely a lot of seeding still to be determined with spots 1-5 separated by only 2 games and spot 6-8 the same.

Leaving a lot of unanswered questions:

Rankings:
1-Duval County: (34-16, 293.7, 1)
Will Frank's team finish with the highest PPG avg ever? (CHI:ESL's championship team from season 6 holds the current mark of 284.6)

2-Coney Island: (30-20, 267.2, 5)
Will Cenario blame his season's downfall on 'the trade'?

3-Theodesia: (31-19, 269.5, 2)
Will Theo be in a position to upset Frank and join the Dos Tropheos Club?

4-Cerritos: (28-22, 271.6, 6)
Is Shawn's avg enough to get him to the finals?

5-South Texas: (27-23, 269.1, 8)
Will Rob's average finally work in his favor in the post season?

6-Northeast Regional: (27-23, 253.9, 9)
Can Lebron's hot play carry for the rest of the season?

7-Washington: (25-25, 263.1, 12)
Does anyone want to see Basa's team in the playoffs? (9-1 over last 10, 288.9 avg over that span, 1pt shy of Duval's avg over same span)

8-CHI:ESL: (28-22, 255, 10)
Is the roller coaster scores and Drummond's injury creating panic in CHI:ESL?

9-Hollywood: (26-24, 259.3, 11)
Will Dwight ever stop being a bitch long enough to help this team make a playoff run?

10-East River: (27-23, 265.7, 3)
What the hell happened? (3-8 in last 11 including 7 game L streak)

11-Villanova: (26-24, 252.2, 4)
Could this team have won it all if healthy?

12-Houston: (22-28, 248.8, 7)
Will LABeat's team even make the playoffs?

13-NYC: (21-29, 244.8, 14)
Will Kevin Love return in time to 'shock the world' and net the rook a playoff spot?

14-Motor City: (20-30, 253.1, 13)
Does Ceej care enough to try to get the #6 seed?

15-Springfield: (15-35, 241.5, 15)
Who will Ernie draft first next season?

16-Brooklyn: (13-37, 237.4, 16)
Will he ever see Bynum and Rose play before the regular season is over?

losing rondo = losing 16 points off my nightly score, as his points are replaced by a 1.0 guard.

i went from contender to below-average playoff team. oh well. i'll hope for some breaks.

How do I play D-mo as my backup C behind Okafor without him eating Noah's F minutes, but I wouldnt mind him ahead of Tobias and Derrick?

---
"though time has passed, im still the future" (c) black thought

How would he "eat" any of Noah's minutes? Williams and Harris would be pushed out.

---------------------------------------------------------

>How would he "eat" any of Noah's minutes? Williams and Harris
>would be pushed out.


He wouldnt really eat Noahs minutes since Noah is the second F but he could push Durant. I mean looking at avgs, Okafor leaves more than enough room minutes played wise, but i dont wanna get caught in a situation where Okafor plays like 40 min one game then DMO plays 30+ and doesnt have a great game. That leaves 66 minutes for Durant and Noah.


Id liek a situation where DMO could be my #2 C but my #3 or even #4 F but dont think thats possible,

Okafor's season high is 35. You would need him to go 40 and D-Mo 38 to leave 66 for Durant/Noah.

>Id liek a situation where DMO could be my #2 C but my #3 or
>even #4 F but dont think thats possible,

Okafor C Noah FC Durant F D-Mo CF? Kaman picks up at C if you need em. Could be a lil risky if D-Mo gets limited tick and Kaman gets hurt again.

RACE WAR:

After winning the last 4 game days 18-14...

Tha BLACKITY-BLACK-A-BLACK-BLACKS YA'LL have won the race war:

131-125 (last tally was off by a game day...corrected here)

Making the all time tally 1038-954 Whites but 4-4 in season wins:

2005-2006: 133-123 White (POWER!!!)
2006-2007: 124-68 White (POWER!!!)
2007-2008: 161-95 White (POWER!!!)
2008-2009: 150-106 Black (FIST!!!!)
2009-2010: 135-121 Black (FIST!!!!)
2010-2011: 139-117 White (POWER!!!)
2011-2012: 135-129 Black (FIST!!!!)*
2012-2013: 131-125 Black (FIST!!!!)

*Lockout shortened season.

Playoffs: 9 spots locked up (all of the black spots are determined) with 3 remaining.

Ryan and Magilla are likely in but LABeat is still fighting off Ceej (though he's conceded already).

A few seedings are up in the air currently also.

The Rook, The defending champ and Boogs are pretty much or officially toast (thanks for playing!).

So who you predicting in the matchups so far?

____________

>The Rook, The defending champ and Boogs are pretty much or

Team is straight BALLIN right now. All for naught.

I think I might the next two or three but prospects are a bit meh for some of those last few games.

my team is struggling at the wrong time.

I lost to NYC with them putting up 219 and the game chandler dropped 87 I lost to a 300+ score.

I miss Andre Drummond.

you are gonna take the 3 seed right?

TJT and Theo are the easier path than Basa and Frank

Then he went down, and I didn't want to look.

my team decides to fold down the stretch. Really?

I'm gonna end up with the damn 4th seed likely.

ugh

At least Jennings has figured out he needed to pass more.

Now if I could get Josh to play like he cared and Drummond back, I might think I have a shot.

other than utah not making a trade (and maybe that might have hurt favor's fppm) everything has broken really well there.

he's usually a guy that gets scooped and dropped throughout the year.

Marcin Gortat has a Lisfranc sprain in his right foot and could miss the remainder of the regular season.
Gortat, who said he heard a "pop" in the foot Wednesday night, will be in a cast for the next three weeks, after which he'll need to begin rehab. The Suns big man admitted Thursday that it's doubtful he'll play again this season and with Phoenix playing only for pride, it makes no sense to rush him back this season. Marcus and Markieff Morris figure to see the biggest boosts in minutes and fantasy value. Luis Scola and Jermaine O'Neal could also see their time upgraded.
